"Surgical swab tracking technology that eliminates retained swabs and prevents Never Events."
iCount is a surgical safety system that eliminates retained swabs, the leading cause of preventable harm in surgery and childbirth. Using a physical docking mechanism with optional AI-powered computer vision, it tracks every swab in real-time and integrates with hospital protocols and electronic medical records for auditable documentation. Healthcare teams use iCount to reduce manual counting errors, protect patients from complications, and avoid litigation costs. The technology is clinician-centred, cost-effective and built for high-pressure environments like operating theatres and maternity wards. By engineering swab management into a reliable safety system, iCount helps hospitals meet national standards and prevent Never Events.
