Abstract
The patient location information in managing for patient workflow will be worked efficiently within the hospital. We designed the Patient Management and Tracking System (PMTS) based on RFID with RSSI(Received Signal Strength Indication) method. This system is able to track the movement of patient in hospital, and manage the waiting-list of patients at a medical office. Therefore, we are sure that the PMTS will be useful for decreasing a duty of medical staff and increase a convenience of patients.
