This will increase quality, efficiency, and safety in the care process. An interface was also developed that allows for real-time determination of the whereabouts of a patient within the emergency services unit and the implementation of solutions provided by identification technologies, such as RFID (Radio Frequency Identification), to calculate the location of a patient with more precision and at a reduced cost.engAtribución 4.0 Españahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/es/TraceabilityEmergency servicesRFIDTracking and Minimization of Adverse Events in the Patient Care Process while in a Hospital Emergency Service Areaconference outputopen access10.3390/proceedings2019031048
