?:definition
  • Tags containing patient and/or asset information designed for identification and tracking using radiofrequency (RF) signals; some tags work with signals in the UHF spectrum. These tags frequently consist of electronic chips with antennae that can transmit data using RF electromagnetic radiation. RF tags may include batteries to power an attached radio transmitter (active tag); other tags work with the RF energy supplied by a location device (passive tags). Some tags include batteries only to supply energy to the internal circuitry or to attached sensors (semi-active tags) but not to generate RF signals. RF identification (RFID) tags may be attached to patients for safety reasons (e.g., to track patients with chronic diseases or with poor mental status); some other tags are intended to track assets (e.g., devices, equipment).
