Expertise makes excellence
Reflecting our specialist, customer-centric thinking, Matcher’s features are each purposefully crafted to ensure industry-leading patient and sample identification, minimise the risk to patients and staff, and streamline working practices in fertility centres and donor banks.
This is why Matcher is different from other witnessing systems.
Matcher uses barcodes which are automatically pre-assigned to each patient and printed onto a label sheet with all sizes required for any cycle.
The patient’s ID and barcodes are assigned automatically at registration, there is no gap in the electronic chain of custody, and no need for any human witnessing throughout the entire cycle of treatment, cryopreservation and thawing.
Matcher’s imaging scanners provide time-stamped photographic proof of each item used at each witness step, as part of its evidence of ‘who, what, where and when’ for every witnessed procedure.
Matcher’s barcodes are globally unique for each embryo and can therefore automatically identify the embryo number when scanned. Matcher UniTrack™ matches the correct patient and also the correct embryo culture well/microdroplet to the correct vitrification dish, vitrification device, biopsy dish and PCR tube as well as determining and validating its fate.
Matcher Insights™ data visualisation dashboard is an invaluable tool for Lab Directors to identify inefficiencies, provide instant insights, inform root cause analysis, visualise trend outliers and anomalies and assist with compliance and auditing requirements.
Matcher offers a choice of handheld ‘pocket’ barcode imagers or ‘benchtop’ barcode imagers, or a combination of both. This gives users flexibility for witnessing different types of procedures in any area of the fertility centre. Neither device uses any laser.
The Matcher system is simple to install, with no equipment modifications required. The static Matcher benchtop imagers can be easily placed in any workstation or on any heated surface. The wireless portable Pocket Matcher imagers can be used anywhere in the entire fertility centre.
Our independent, specialist team are continually developing the Matcher system and collaborating with integration partners to exceed our customers’ needs and to guide industry best practice for the long term.
The Matcher software has a multi-lingual interface on both the desktop and handheld application and is translatable into any language.
