TrackMate




Portable Medical Equipment (PME) such as IV pumps, workstations on wheels (WOWs) and vitals machines can transmit dangerous pathogens between rooms within healthcare facilities due to how frequently this equipment is used and transported. TrackMate is the world's first device that provides automated tracking of disinfection events for PME and hospital rooms.

TrackMate was developed by Dr. Chetan Jinadatha in the Temple VA and is exclusively licensed to Xenex Disinfection Services Inc.
