Pediatric Patient Safety & Infant Abduction Prevention RTLS
Protecting pediatric patients and infants requires the highest level of vigilance and technology. SecurTRAK’s real-time locating system provides comprehensive infant abduction prevention, pediatric elopement prevention, and real-time patient tracking designed specifically for maternity wards, NICUs, pediatric units, and children’s hospitals.
Infant Abduction Prevention
Infant abduction is a hospital’s worst nightmare. SecurTRAK’s infant protection module uses tamper-proof active RFID tags that cannot be removed without triggering an immediate alert:
- Mother-baby matching: Alerts if an infant is moved away from their assigned mother
- Automatic lockdown: Exits, elevators, and stairwell doors lock automatically on unauthorized infant movement
- Proactive CCTV: Security cameras activate instantly at the infant’s location and exit points
- Tamper detection: Any attempt to cut or remove the infant tag triggers an immediate alarm
- Real-time tracking: Even if an abductor bypasses one barrier, the infant is continuously tracked
Pediatric Elopement Prevention
Pediatric patients in behavioral health, post-surgical recovery, or with cognitive impairments are at risk of elopement. PatienTRAK provides the same wander management and elopement prevention for pediatric patients as for adult at-risk populations, with age-appropriate tag options.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does SecurTRAK protect pediatric patients?
SecurTRAK provides multiple layers of protection for pediatric patients including InfanTRAK for infant abduction prevention (tamper-detecting ankle tags with automated door lockdown), PatienTRAK for pediatric elopement prevention in behavioral health units, and PanicALERT for staff duress in high-risk pediatric care areas.
What happens if an infant’s tag is tampered with?
InfanTRAK tags include tamper-detection sensors. If the band is cut, stretched, or removed, the system generates an immediate alarm and can automatically lock exits and elevators via LF exciter-controlled mag-locks. The alarm is transmitted to security stations, mobile devices, and overhead notification systems simultaneously.
Can pediatric safety systems integrate with existing hospital security?
Yes. SecurTRAK integrates with access control, CCTV, nurse call, and mass notification systems. When a security event occurs — infant tag tamper, pediatric elopement attempt, or staff duress — the system can activate cameras, lock doors, trigger overhead announcements, and page security simultaneously.
