Abstract

The computing system may determine a virtual boundary of a restricted access area within an operating room (OR). The computing system may identify healthcare professionals (HCPs) within the OR and monitor the movements of the HCPs. The computing system may determine access authorization for the HCPs. The computing system may determine whether the HCP is in proximity to a virtual boundary area. If the computing system determines that the HCP is in proximity to the virtual boundary area and the HCP is not authorized to enter the virtual boundary area, the computing system may send a notification to the HCP. The notification may indicate that the HCP is not authorized to enter the virtual boundary area. If the computing system determines that the HCP is authorized to enter the virtual boundary area, the computing system may allow the HCP to enter the virtual boundary area.
