Our Verdict: A patient safety essential. 100% detection rate makes this a no-brainer for every surgical department.

The Stryker SurgiCount+ is an AI-powered RFID system designed to prevent one of surgery’s most serious never-events: retained surgical items. Every sponge and towel used during surgery contains an RFID tag, and the system tracks each item in real-time, automatically detecting if any item remains inside the patient before the incision is closed.

The system uses overhead RFID scanners and AI algorithms to maintain a real-time count without requiring manual scanning by OR staff. Clinical studies show a 100% detection rate for tagged items, virtually eliminating the risk of retained sponges that affects approximately 1 in 1,000 abdominal surgeries with manual counting methods.
