SUPPORTING THE PATH TO SAFER CARE

Compliance Matters.
Timertag makes it easier.

Helping you meet your device compliance goals while simplifying workflows.

Why Dwell-time Compliance Matters

"Dwell time is associated with the development of bloodstream infections with peripheral IV catheters."

Zanella M, et al. Dwell Time and Risk of Bloodstream Infection With Peripheral Intravenous Catheters. JAMA Netw Open. 2025;8(4)

"Minimize urinary catheter use and duration of use in all patients."

https://www.cdc.gov/infection-control/media/pdfs/Guideline-CAUTI-H.pdf

"Replace dressings used on short-term CVC sites at least every 7 days for transparent dressings, except in those pediatric patients in which the risk for dislodging the catheter may outweigh the benefit of changing the dressing."

https://www.cdc.gov/infection-control/media/pdfs/Guideline-BSI-H.pdf

IV administration sets have set dwell times that should not be exceeded according to the INS Infusion Therapy Standards of Practice (2024).

How Timertag Works

By replacing patient education handouts and handwritten date labels, Timertag is designed to reduce compliance blind spots and support patient engagement, and does not require patient accounts, logins, or personal details. No personal health information is collected, stored, or transmitted.

For Patients

Timertag Go and Pro deliver language-agnostic visual cues and instant bedside education straight to the patient's smartphone.

For Clinicians

Timertag Pro delivers immediate dwell-time visibility at the point of care, featuring an "Evaluate for Removal" prompt for peripheral IVs, urinary catheters, and dressings. Whether your institution follows a clinically indicated or time-based removal policy for peripheral IVs, Timertag supports your protocol compliance goals.
