1. A system comprising:
- a first medical item including a first RFID tag and a second medical item including a second RFID tag, wherein each of the first and second RFID tags include;
a controller configured according to instructions in memory to generate a message including identification information; and
an antenna portion configured to transmit the message;
a mobile device communicating with the first and second RFID tags, wherein the mobile device comprises;
a transceiver configured to receive the messages from the first and second RFID tags;
a controller operatively coupled to the transceiver; and
one or more memory sources operatively coupled to the controller, the one or more memory sources including instructions for configuring the controller to generate one or more messages indicative of the identification information to be sent by the transceiver to a server device via a network connection;
wherein the server device comprises;
a transceiver configured to receive the one or more messages from the mobile device;
a controller operatively coupled to the transceiver; and
one or more memory sources operatively coupled to the controller, the one or more memory sources including instructions for configuring the controller to associate the identification information of the first RFID tag with the identification information of the second RFID tag.

Abstract
A system includes a plurality of RFID chips affixed to a medical item, a device reader such as a data collection engine device, and a server device. The data collection engine wirelessly transmits power to an RFID chips and receives first medical data from the RFID chip while the RFID chip is activated by the power receiver. The data collection engine generates a first message indicative of the first medical data to be sent to the server device. The server device can determine aspects of the medical item such as position and risk states based upon the first medical data.
