The Best just got Better: SCC Soft Computer® Receives FDA 510(k) Clearance on SoftBank® 25.5
August 20, 2014
(Clearwater, FL) August 20 – SCC Soft Computer (SCC) announced today that it has received FDA 510(k) clearance on SoftBank® 25.5, SCC’s transfusion service management system (BK140128, 08/05/2014). This dynamic system combines previous high performance functionality with exciting new features such as interfacing with blood storage devices. This new functionality allows for units of blood to be dispensed in hospital critical units to meet urgent transfusion needs.
“Critical safety functions throughout the SoftBank system allow users to focus on what’s important – providing safe blood components, tissue, and derivative products to their patients”, says Gilbert Hakim, SCC’s founder and CEO. “Receiving premarket approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) validates our objective of meeting safety regulations and our continued commitment to evolving and improving the product.”
During trauma situations, the SoftBank system will allow multiple users to perform tasks on a single patient simultaneously while maintaining patient safety. Emergency issue combines the unit selection and issuing process to provide products for a patient in a timesaving manner. SoftBank’s multisite capabilities support patient orders and product inventory from multiple facilities – including facilities across multiple time zones – in one centralized database. Master Patient Index allows online history review for patients with stays across facilities. The SoftBank system also supports the use of centralized transfusion testing; one site can perform testing for several sites while allowing each site to maintain its own product inventory.
SCC has been ranked the Number 1 Laboratory Blood Bank application in the Best in KLAS Awards: Software & Services report in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, and 2013 (www.klasresearch.com). SoftBank has been recognized as the category leader in blood bank information management system solutions for five consecutive years. The award winning blood bank and transfusion services management system provides a wide range of exceptional features that streamline many of the routine, manual, and time consuming tasks associated with blood bank and blood donor products.
