Medtronic is apparently continuing with its post-Covidien merger purchases of innovative technologies. The medical device giant announced Monday that it has signed an agreement to buy RF Surgical Systems Inc., which has RF tag technology to warn surgical teams of items left in patients.
Carlsbad, CA–based RF Surgical Systems has a proprietary detection system that uses a low radio frequency (RF) signal to track and detect surgical gauze, sponges, and towels embedded with RF tags. The system is able to detect the items through blood, dense tissue, and bone.
