Oral PCA Device

Avancen MOD Corporation

Avancen introduces its MOD (Medication on Demand) device. The MOD assists in decreasing medication diversion, aids in reporting and auditing, improves pain control, and has various interconnectivity options. The patient- operated bedside device safely and securely delivers up to eight doses of pain tablets or capsules using Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology. To request a dose of medication, the patient touches the pain scale to record the pain level and activate the RFID reader within the device. The patient then swipes the RFID wristband over the front of the device to open it, and removes the single pill from its compartment.
