The RPlay Smart Inventory kit — implant package and scanner in a hospital pharmacy

Smart Inventory for hospital pharmacies

Every implant.
Visible in realtime.

RPlay Smart Inventory automatically tracks consignment implants, captures UDI traceability and eliminates manual reconciliation across hospital pharmacies.

European regulation

EUDAMED is mandatory. RPlay keeps your audit trail complete.

Every implantable device placed on the EU market must be registered with its Unique Device Identifier (UDI) in EUDAMED, and traceable on demand. Hospitals are being asked for a clean, per-implant audit trail. RPlay Smart Inventory captures the UDI on intake, follows the implant through every room, and produces the records you need — without a single new screen for the operating theatre to learn.

Consignment implants on a hospital pharmacy shelf, monitored by an RPlay gateway

The problem

Supplier-owned implants are invisible.

And hospitals pay for the mistakes.

Hospital pharmacies hold millions of euros of consignment implants on behalf of suppliers. Today it is tracked with paper labels, manual counts and memory — and it goes wrong silently.

The dashboard

The view a pharmacist actually asks for.

A live cockpit that answers the questions you get asked every morning — what's on the shelf, what was used yesterday, what's about to expire, and what needs action right now.

Stock visibility

Every tagged implant on the shelf — category, lot, expiry, value and FIFO position.

Alerts that need action now

Waste detection, unbilled use, FIFO violations — each with a suggested action.

Expiry & FIFO

A specific recommended action per implant — act today, not at quarter-end.

Reconciliation

Expected vs. actual quantity, live. Discrepancies surfaced, never buried.

A pocket version is included for every user — pharmacy technicians, theatre coordinators, on-call staff. Push notifications, one-tap locate, no app-store install.

RPlay Document Scanner
Optional

RPlay Document Scanner

One pass. Two labels. Linked for life.

Optional desktop scanner for the pharmacy intake desk. The implant goes under the camera; the hospital label and the Smart Sticker are read in a single capture and linked.

Use

Reads
Hospital labels (1D / 2D / GS1) + Smart Sticker IDs

Deployment tip — don't place two gateways too close together. We recommend one per physical room, or one per ~50–80 m² of open zone.

The workflow

Same people. Same rooms.
Better data.

RPlay Smart Inventory captures every implant movement automatically — from the supplier dock to the post-procedure audit trail.

01Supplier

Today

Delivery dropped at dock, paper packing slip.

With RPlay

Delivery arrives at pharmacy intake; lot, expiry and UDI captured in one scan.

02Pharmacy

Today

Manual count, hand-written register, no FIFO check — newer stock often used first.

With RPlay

Auto-detected on arrival, lot and expiry linked to the Smart Sticker, FIFO assigned automatically.

03Operating theatre

Today

Nurse picks from shelf, paperwork later, packaging dropped in the waste bin — evidence lost.

With RPlay

Pick detected by zone change, use confirmed by dwell time, missing-return alert if the Smart Sticker doesn't come back.

04Billing & admin

Today

The coder recreates the case from notes 24 to 72 hours later — typical leakage 5–6%.

With RPlay

Usage record available within minutes through the REST API or a webhook — modelled leakage under 0.5%.

05Quarterly cycle

Today

Two staff × one day for a manual count; expired stock written off (~€2,400 / month).
