Healthcare Industry Challenges

NeedleSmart helps healthcare professionals and patients manage injection-led process (ILP) challenges safely, efficiently, and sustainably. With our connected technology and data management suite approach, the healthcare industry can simply and effectively address these complex ILP challenges:

1. Unsafe sharps disposal

Traditional hypodermic needle disposal methods can create needlestick injury risks for healthcare workers and others involved in the disposal process.

2. Inefficient and disconnected ILP workflows

Inefficient and laborious workflows and disconnected data systems create patient care, compliance and data management challenges in ILP.

3. Unsustainable disposal methods

Millions of single-use needles are disposed of each year, which can have a significant financial and environmental impact.

NeedleSmart’s Solutions

NeedleSmart has developed a unique approach to ILP management. This combines safe, environmentally sound hypodermic needle disposal with workflow efficiencies and data management. 

We create a fast, scalable, and compliant digital treatment and event record that improves workflow efficiency, data management, and patient care. NeedleSmart’s technology offers a safer and more efficient hypodermic needle disposal method that eliminates the risk of future needlestick injuries. Additionally, needles may be potentially recyclable and disposed of locally at a lower cost, reducing the environmental and financial impact of ILP.

NeedleSmart PRO Needle Destruction Device (NDD)

As a trusted partner in the healthcare sector, we understand the unique challenges healthcare professionals and patients face. That’s why we’ve developed the NeedleSmart PRO, a product that merges secure and eco-friendly hypodermic needle disposal with efficient workflow, leading to a swift, adaptable, and regulation-compliant digital record system for treatments and events.

Key Features:
  • Ability to destroy a wide range of needles, including standard and safety needles, with a reduction in hypodermic needles to sharps bins by up to 50%.
  • Rechargeable battery provides extended use away from the charging cradle and can destroy multiple hundred needles on a single charge.
  • Independent verification confirms zero aerosolization and complete sterilization of destroyed needles, making the device safe and compliant.
  • Lightweight and portable design allows for easy use in multiple healthcare environments, including hospitals, clinics, and GP surgeries.
  • Generates a reduction in sharps disposal costs by approximately 30%, with minimal operating costs due to low charging expenses.

Key Benefits:
  • Compliance with legislation and significantly reducing the potential for needlestick injuries (NSI) across all staff, clinical and non-clinical.<
  • Reliability and trustworthiness, with CE mark approval, and FDA-approved 510(k) class II NDD certifications.
  • Reduced costs associated with sharps disposal by increasing the capacity of sharps bins by approximately 50% while generating sustainability by moving from plastic bins to cardboard waste containers.
  • Positive impact on the environment, with a carbon footprint reduction of up to 95% when fully integrated (with the inclusion of clinical waste boxes).
  • Potential to recycle the product, providing a sustainable solution for healthcare facilities.

NeedleSmart Software

NeedleSmart’s software streamlines the management of any injection led process. Complementing the NeedleSmart PRO, our NeedleSmart software creates a secure, real-time digital record of the patient, treatment, location, and healthcare professional information ready to be added to the patient’s medical records.

Key Features:
  • Automatically captures data required to manage a injection led treatment at source, including: who administered the vaccine, who was vaccinated, what vaccine they received, and when they were vaccinated.
  • Stores all data in a single, authoritative database, which feeds directly into other systems, providing health organizations with centralized access to comprehensive data.
  • Offers real-time insights into the progress of any injection led program,, allowing healthcare professionals to monitor and manage vaccine administration effectively.
  • Easy to use, with a user-friendly interface and simple data input and retrieval.

Key Benefits:
  • Fast, accurate data capture that is crucial for managing a successful ILP program.
  • Eliminates the need for manual data entry and record-keeping, reducing the risk of errors and saving time and resources.
  • Improves compliance with legislation and regulations, ensuring that healthcare facilities remain compliant.
  • Increases efficiency and productivity, enabling healthcare professionals to focus on patient care rather than administrative tasks.
  • Offers real-time insights into the progress of a treatment program, allowing healthcare professionals to make data-driven decisions.
  • Easy to use, with a simple and intuitive interface that requires minimal training.
