Ian Henderson works as the PULSE Project director for Savant Ltd. PULSE is the core IT system for the National Blood Service and Savant are responsible for the support and development of the system. In his position as system designer, Ian believes that we have gone past the limits of barcode technology. Current labelling standards mean that we cannot introduce automatic handling to any extent. RFID technology appears to offer major advantages for blood pack handling and has the potential to reduce some of the time consuming reconciliation procedures. Ian is a member of the international ISBT 128 RFID Task Force which is currently assessing the potential for RFID technology within the blood supply chain.
