OneEvent Technologies to Use Predictive Analytics to Protect COVID-19 Vaccines

The Thermo Heartbeat algorithm's advance notification enables users to take action to protect their inventory in advance of a critical situation. Apart from protecting vital inventory, OneEvent's advance notice of potential issues decreases the strain on staff and decreases costs from expensive after-hours or rush service charges.

FREMONT, CA: OneEvent Technologies has declared its new innovation, the Thermo Heartbeat algorithm. Using predictive analytics and the Internet of Things (IoT) technology, OneEvent monitors refrigeration temperatures while predicting the potential breakdown of freezers and refrigerators to help protect COVID-19 vaccine inventory.

As per the World Health Organization (WHO), 50 percent of vaccines may be wasted globally every year, and wastage in unopened vials is generally attributed to cold chain and stock management problems.

One of the primary causes of improper refrigeration is the loss of cooling because of equipment failure.

The OneEvent system, which meets CDC requirements and recommendations, protects COVID-19 vaccines as well as other inventory in cold storage in two ways. First, the OneEvent system offers remote, real-time monitoring via a cellular gateway, collecting data from the door as well as temperature sensors (including ultra-cold). Data is stored and analyzed in the cloud in order to verify that conditions are normal. When conditions exceed pre-set parameters, alerts are sent to a mobile device through text, email, or push notification, enabling staff to correct the problem before inventory is affected. The OneEvent system helps users meet CDC requirements and recommendations for vaccine storage.

The second method of protection is given through the OneEvent system's Thermo Heartbeat algorithm as well as predictive analytics. The Thermo Heartbeat analyzes temperature variation during normal use, including cooling, warming, and defrost cycles. By collecting as well as analyzing data with predictive analytics, the OneEvent system can detect whether a freezer or refrigerator has issues maintaining proper temperature and can predict if a unit's temperature would go above or below its pre-set limits days in advance of doing so.

The Thermo Heartbeat algorithm's advance notification enables users to take action to protect their inventory in advance of a critical situation. Apart from protecting vital inventory, OneEvent's advance notice of potential issues decreases the strain on staff and decreases costs from expensive after-hours or rush service charges.

As the world starts the most extensive vaccination program in history, safeguarding COVID-19 vaccines will play a critical role in empowering us to recover from this devastating disease.
