Identification of information surgical instrument by ceramic RFID tag

Surgical instruments with computerization is demanded to prevent medical error, the burden reduction of the nurse, quality improvement of the operation. In this study, a radio frequency identification tag was made from ceramic was developed. As the results, the sterilization characteristic of repetition was 2% of failure rate. The above-mentioned heating tolerance, the characteristic of ultrasonic exposure in water and shock tolerance were 0% of failure rate not to be confirmed a transformation and impossibility of communication situation on the ceramic RFID tag. In the conclusion, the ceramic RFID tag which has basic characteristics was indicated possibility to be able to use a medical field.
