In The News

DHL Life Sciences & Healthcare division has chosen IDENTI’s Smart Cabinet system and integrated AI management software to track and manage hydrocephalus implants for their customer, Medtronic Mexico.

Without a central logistics center in the country, Medtronic Mexico relies on DHL, the international logistics provider, for much of their supply chain management. Medtronic Mexico approached the DHL Life Sciences & Healthcare Division to find a solution for managing their hydrocephalus implants which are used in expensive brain surgery procedures for children.

The objectives were to provide accessible storage and improve inventory availability in real-time to hospitals throughout Mexico as well as to Medtronic’s medical representatives in the country. The primary requirement was full remote visibility to both Medtronic

Medtronic Shunt for Hydrocephalus allows excess cerebrospinal fluid to drain to another area of the body. As the pressure of cerebrospinal fluid inside the brain increases, the one-way valve opens and the excessive fluid drains to the downstream cavity. The device has been used to treat hydrocephalus for more than 50 years.
