Gap-free documentation –
A systematic approach to safety
Customised documentation options
System4Dent offers various documentation solutions, catering for
the individual needs of surgeries and technical standards on site.
The heart and soul of the documentation system is Segosoft Miele
Edition software. Meticulously crafted to take on board everyday
needs, this software guarantees the reproducible, manipulation-
proof and legally valid documentation of instrument reprocessing.
Electronic documentation: Direct connection between PC and
machine.
Miele thermal disinfectors and small steam sterilisers are
connected direct by cable (max. length 13 m) to a computer
(netbook, laptop or PC) on which documentation software is
installed. This can be a separate computer in the hygiene room or
a computer installed in a neighbouring room.
Electronic documentation: Network connection
Thermal disinfectors and small steam sterilisers are connected to
a surgery network computer hosting documentation software, e.g.
to the central computer at the reception desk. After transmission,
protocolled data can be archived for future reference.
Electronic documentation using USB stick
Process data from a thermal disinfector or small steam sterilisers
can be saved to a USB stick for subsequent transfer to a computer
where the appropriate documentation software is installed.
Process documentation via printer
Process data is printed using a receipt printer in the hygiene room.
Long-term archiving is performed by filing the printouts.
The reproducible documentation of reprocessing not only gives
dentists the peace of mind of knowing that they are on the right
side of the law. It also facilitates the protocolling of individual
process stages for detailed analysis later and therefore lends itself to
particularly effective quality management – a real benefit for patients
and the surgery team alike.
