Every newborn represents a family’s most precious hope. Yet maternity and neonatal wards worldwide face persistent safety risks: infant abduction, motherbaby mismatching, tag tampering, and human error caused by nursing shortages and high patient turnover. Even with CCTV cameras and manual patrols, human monitoring has unavoidable blind spots. A few seconds are enough for security incidents to happen, triggering sentinel events, legal liabilities, irreversible family trauma, and longterm damage to hospital brand reputation.
For decades, Ocamar has focused on medical IoT innovation. Our Infant Security System builds multilayer active safety protection for maternity units, combining lightweight wearable tags, RTLS realtime location technology, multiscenario intelligent alert logic, and seamless hospital system interoperability. Already deployed across hundreds of toptier hospitals in Asia, this proven solution is designed to help global maternity facilities reduce safety risks, ease clinical workload, and deliver reassuring care for new families。
Core Pain Points That Hospitals Are Facing Globally
Many healthcare providers still rely heavily on manual checking and paperbased identification for newborn management. These traditional workflows bring obvious vulnerabilities:
1、Abduction & unauthorized movement risk: Bad actors use socialengineering tactics to enter wards; overstretched nursing staff cannot monitor every exit and patient room 24/7.
2、Motherbaby mismatch risk: Similarlooking newborns may be incorrectly handed over, leading to severe patientsafety sentinel events.
3、High falsealarm rate of legacy systems: Outdated hardware triggers frequent false notifications, causing staff alarmfatigue and weakening emergency response effectiveness.
4、Poor clinical adaptability: Bulky, nonskinfriendly wristbands irritate neonatal skin; complex operation adds extra burden to already busy nurses.
5、Difficult integration: Many standalone security products cannot connect to HIS, nursecall, accesscontrol or CCTV platforms, forming isolated data silos.
Ocamar Infant Security System is built around realworld clinical pain points rather than theoretical specifications, solving these challenges endtoend.
Ocamar Infant Security System: Technology Designed for Maternity Clinical Reality
Built on Ocamar’s wellproven OneNetUnlimited medical IoT platform, the solution adopts dualmode UHF & lowfrequency RFID architecture. It consists of medicalgrade wearable tags, ward transceivers, gateway equipment, server management software, and multiterminal alarm notification modules, covering fullcycle newborn management from birth to discharge。
MedicalGrade Wearable Tags: Tiny, Safe, Reliable for Newborn Skin
·Ultralight infant tag: Less than 10 grams, latexfree, compliant with ISO 10993 biological safety standards, skinfriendly for premature and fullterm infants.
·IP67 waterproof & disinfectable: No need to remove during bathing or ward disinfection. Two powersupply options: rechargeable version with ~30day battery life, longlife disposable model supporting up to 12month continuous operation.
·Multitamper detection: Triggers instant alerts for wristband cutting, peelingoff, loosening, lowbattery and signalloss. Motherpaired tags ensure onetoone motherbaby binding, and supports multiplebirth (twins/triplets) management.
Seven Major Intelligent Alert Mechanisms, 24Hour Active Risk Prevention
The system continuously monitors ward zones and triggers multichannel instant alerts once abnormal events occur:
1、Motherbaby mismatch alarm
2、Tag damage / violentcutting alarm
3、Tag loose / skindetached alarm
4、Lowbattery early warning
5、Signalloss warning
6、Unauthorized zoneexit alarm
7、Temporaryleave timeout reminder
Alarms push simultaneously to nursestation software, PDA mobile terminals, nurse call watches, corridor display screens and onsite soundlight alarm devices. Meanwhile, it can link hospital CCTV systems for instant video snapshot and evidence retention, helping clinical teams respond within seconds instead of passively waiting for incidents to unfold.
Deep Interoperability, Fit Into Existing Hospital IT Infrastructure
Open standardized API interfaces support seamless synchronization with hospital HIS, EMR and accesscontrol systems:
·Automatically import maternalneonatal admission data, avoid manual entry errors.
·Nurses can complete motherbaby binding, tag activation and status checking directly on ward bedside terminals without returning to the nurse station.
·Realtime 3D ward map shows infant location, tag working status and historical movement trajectory; all alarm events are automatically logged for qualityreview and compliance audit purposes.
Different from many competitive products requiring largescale reconstruction of ward networks, Ocamar’s solution runs over existing medical IoT network. Hospitals can deploy it in incremental phases: renovate highrisk maternity wards first, then expand coverage to NICU and postnatal recovery areas, which significantly lowers transformation investment and construction cycle.
RealWorld Deployment & GlobalReady Track Record
The Ocamar Infant Security System has been adopted by hundreds of largescale maternity and general hospitals across Asia, including Fujian Provincial Maternity Hospital, The First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yatsen University Huiya Hospital, Sir RunRun Shaw Hospital, Shandong Provincial Hospital, Wuxi Xishan People’s Hospital, Haikou Maternal & Child Health Hospital and Urumqi Youai Hospital, covering tertiarylevel maternalchild institutes, comprehensive general hospitals and private birthing centers.
Practical clinical outcomes from reference sites:
✅ Zero infantsecurity related sentinel events after system golive.
✅ Sharp reduction of manual checking workload for nursing teams.
✅ Improved patient satisfaction: new parents gain tangible peaceofmind about newborn safety.
✅ Support hospital accreditation & patientsafety compliance requirements.
Our solution adapts to diverse hospital scales:
·For large tertiary maternity centers: fullfunction deployment, docking with ward smart bedside screens, wholematernitybuilding zonewide protection.
·For midsize & regional hospitals: streamlined configuration to match budget; core antiabduction and motherbaby matching functions remain fully intact.
·For private birthing centers: compact hardware set, simple deployment workflow, fast project launch.
