Abstract：Objective To develop an accurate medical equipment positioning system based on Internet-of-things
(IoT) technology so as to strengthen the management of medical equipment and prevent the loss of hospital’s fixed
assets. Methods The RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) electronic tag was installed in the medical equipment
and the RFID reader was installed in important areas of the hospital, which enabled the real-time transmission of
the mobile trajectory of the medical equipment to the server so as to realize accurate positioning of the medical
equipment. Results The system solved the difficulties in tracking and management of medical equipment and
made it easy to make an inventory of the fixed assets of the hospital and improve informatization level of medical
equipment management. Conclusion The IoT-technology-based accurate medical equipment positioning system
demonstrated its practicality, stability and extensibility in the accurate location of the medical equipment.
