?:definition
  • Counters designed to verify the quantity of sponges used during a surgical procedure to help prevent the retention of surgical sponges inside the patient before closure of the operative field by reading bar-coded identified sponges. These counters typically consist of a bar-code handheld reader that is used to scan a unique code identifier previously embedded in the sponges before and at the end of the surgical procedure. The reader is linked to a central computerized unit that shows in real time the results of the sponge identification and counting and also other patient and/or procedure related data. The computerized unit may be connected to hospital information systems. Sponge retention prevention surgical bar-coded counters are used to identify and count the sponges and other related devices (e.g., bar-code labeled swabs and towels) during a surgical procedure.
