four zones · vaccines + surgery + medications + biosecurity.
A veterinary clinic has four operational fronts where care quality is made or broken: vaccine and biological refrigerators, per-surgery-room autoclaves (critical sterilization), controlled-medication freezer, OR IAQ + auditable access. AstreaIoT covers all four with the same platform.
vaccine + biological refrigerators
submersible or contact temperature probe with glycol stabilizer per vaccine refrigerator (2-8°C range · NOM-072 analogue for veterinary use). Door sensor + compressor current meter with cycle analysis. WhatsApp alert in less than 5 minutes to the veterinary sanitary lead.
per-surgery-room autoclave
high-temperature probe per autoclave (121°C+ validation per cycle) + chamber pressure sensor. Each surgery room with its own autoclave for instrument sterilization. Automated per-cycle logbook + veterinary audit + COFEPRIS report.
controlled-medication freezer + anesthesia storage
temperature probe for -20°C controlled-medication freezer (veterinary insulins, sensitive products). Medical-gas storage sensor (anesthetics like isoflurane, sevoflurane) + low-level alert. Door sensor with timestamp for COFEPRIS audit trail.
OR IAQ + access + generator
multi-parameter IAQ sensor in OR (T+RH+CO₂+HEPA filtration proxy). Door sensor on OR + controlled pharmacy access with auditable register. Backup generator current meter + diesel sensor · surgery doesn't interrupt during CFE blackout.
Out of scope: specific veterinary medical equipment (anesthesia mechanics, imaging machines — those are under manufacturer maintenance). Also no in-consult recording (client privacy).
what we protect · what we prevent.
- +Vaccines + biologicals protected · zero contaminated lots · pet populations safeguarded
- +Surgery always in spec · per-cycle validated autoclaves · zero attributable postsurgical infections
- +Controlled medications auditable · COFEPRIS satisfied · veterinary license defended
- +OR with continuous IAQ · optimal surgery conditions · veterinary staff protected
- +Surgery doesn't interrupt · backup generator always ready · absolute operational continuity
- ✕Vaccine at 12°C overnight · contaminated lot applied · populations at risk + SENASICA fines
- ✕Autoclave out of spec before surgery · postsurgical infection · lawsuit + reputation
- ✕Controlled medication freezer without logbook · COFEPRIS revokes license
- ✕OR with IAQ out of spec · compromised surgery · staff with respiratory risk
- ✕Backup generator without diesel · blackout during surgery · animal patient without controlled anesthesia
eight use cases · four critical areas.
for the responsible veterinarian + sanitary lead.
Responsible Veterinarian + Sanitary Lead + Clinical Director. Two cases · vaccine refrigerator rises to 12°C overnight (contaminated lot risk), controlled-medication freezer with repeated openings (custody chain compromised). Vaccines and meds protected.
for the veterinary surgeon + surgical lead.
Veterinary Surgeon + Surgical Lead + Surgical Coordinator. Two cases · per-room autoclave with cycle out of spec before scheduled surgery, medical-grade anesthetic with undetected low level. Surgery always ready.
for the clinical director + biosecurity lead.
Clinical Director + Biosecurity Lead + Veterinarian. Two cases · OR IAQ out of spec before major surgery, high CO₂ in procedure room with multiple patients. OR always ready.
for the administrative director + maintenance.
Administrative Director + Maintenance + Clinical Director. Two cases · unauthorized access to controlled pharmacy (custody chain), backup generator doesn't start at CFE blackout during surgery. Biosecurity + operational continuity.
three compliances · one platform covers all three.
For multi-clinic veterinary chains (Banfield-style), cross-clinic dashboard with compliance ranking + efficiency + per-clinic benchmarking.
from sensor to report · every five minutes · without human intervention
Five steps. They run in parallel across all your sites, all the time. When something crosses a threshold, the flow completes in under five minutes — alert delivered, response logged, inspector-ready evidence captured.
measure
Sensors measure temperature, humidity, current, door-open, leak and other magnitudes every five minutes — no operator required.
detect
The system compares each reading against the threshold configured per recipe · per site · per equipment. Threshold crossing triggers the flow.
alert
The alert routes to the right person via WhatsApp, email or push · per role and schedule configured.
respond
The operator acts from the dashboard or mobile app. The corrective action goes into an immutable log with timestamp + signature.
audit
Everything becomes part of the audit package · time series, critical events, corrective actions, NOM report ready in two clicks.
Five steps · no manual operators · no paperwork · no gaps.
five phases · per clinic.
site survey
1 dayTechnical visit + inventory of vaccine refrigerators, controlled freezers, per-room autoclaves, ORs, critical access, generator · deployment plan.
physical installation
2-3 dayscalibrated temperature probes + door sensors + OR IAQ sensors + generator meters · gateway with 32-hour backup · without affecting clinical operation (low-hour installation).
configuration + calibration
1-2 daysSAGARPA + COFEPRIS + veterinary STPS thresholds · probes calibrated in accredited laboratory · WhatsApp alerts configured + SENASICA templates.
team training
1 dayClinical Director + Sanitary Lead + Surgeon + Surgical Lead + Administrative Director + Maintenance · each role trains on their flow.
30 days of support + first SENASICA audit
30 daysAstreaIoT specialist available · first monthly SENASICA + COFEPRIS report delivered · first audit backed with continuous data.
For multi-clinic veterinary chains, wave-based deployment with standardized BOM · 60-90 day pilot in anchor clinic + cross-chain expansion.
common questions · before the quote.
does the temperature probe comply with SAGARPA for veterinary use?
Yes · submersible or contact probe with glycol stabilizer (±0.5°C accuracy, IP68, food-grade equivalent) calibrated in accredited laboratory. Validity tracked · recalibration every 12 months.
does it integrate with veterinary management systems (VetClinic, Avimark, eVetPractice)?
Yes · via Custom Integration. Compatible with commercial veterinary management systems · cold chain + autoclave + biosecurity data feeds the central system · billing + audit from a single dashboard.
does it work with autoclaves of different brands (Tuttnauer, Midmark, Sirona)?
Yes · high-temperature external probe clip-mounted + chamber pressure sensor. Compatible with Tuttnauer, Midmark, Sirona, medical and veterinary autoclaves. No manufacturer modification required.
is client privacy respected in the clinic?
Yes · zero cameras + zero audio. Only environmental sensors (T+RH+CO₂) + door sensors + PIR presence (no image). Client privacy respected.
what about clinics in unstable CFE zones?
Gateway with cellular or solar backhaul + local 32-hour buffer. Monitored backup generator for pre-blackout validation. Surgery continues even during prolonged blackouts.
is pricing per clinic or per veterinary chain?
Flexible model · per-clinic subscription with tier per number of surgery rooms, refrigerators, freezers. For multi-clinic chains, discount per number of clinics + cross-chain dashboard included.
does it integrate with SENASICA and COFEPRIS audit?
Yes · pre-configured templates for SENASICA + COFEPRIS · downloadable monthly PDF report with complete logbook of vaccines + autoclaves + controlled medications + OR IAQ · your Responsable Sanitario hands the evidence packet to the auditor (two-minute prep).
