iCount: Smarter Swab Counting for Safer Childbirth and Surgery

iCount is a precision engineered patented device system designed to support staff for accurate and efficient swab counts.

With an intuitive docking mechanism, clear display and optional AI-enabled verification, iCount is designed to help stop retained swab – never events.

Unlike traditional counting methods like swab bags, plastic containers, or visual-only checks, iCount integrates directly into the sterile field and matches the exact number and type of swabs in each procedure pack. This ensures a reliable pre- and post-procedural count, reducing human error without disrupting workflow.

Why iCount?

  • Sterile and intuitive: Docking devices are pre-packed and sterile—ready for use in the surgical field.
  • Built for theatre teams: Designed with input from scrub nurses and surgical staff to fit seamlessly into real-world procedures.
  • Human factors approach: Simplifies counting, improves team communication, and reduces cognitive overload.
  • Supports hospital safety protocols: Helps teams meet audit and regulatory requirements with confidence.
  • Cost-effective safety: Reduces the risk of costly litigation, repeat surgery, and extended patient stays.

One simple solution. One powerful safeguard.

Because every count matters—and every patient deserves a safe outcome.
