Myloc Trace: new app for traceable handling of care equipment
Myloc is now launching Myloc Trace, the app that gives care staff a simple overview of base equipment in care homes and storage, with full traceability under MDR.
Myloc AB, a leading Nordic SaaS company, is now expanding its service offering with the launch of Myloc Trace. A mobile-friendly application that helps municipalities, regions and private care providers meet the traceability requirements in the EU regulation for medical devices, MDR.
Simple handling of base equipment
Myloc Trace is an easy-to-use app for handling base equipment in care homes and storage facilities. Care staff get an overview of the status of all equipment that is stored and used, per unit, room and storage location, with full traceability under the legal requirements for handling medical devices. Scan, search, move, plan and document maintenance directly on the phone.
Manual documentation is an increased risk
Many organisations still use manual lists to keep track of care equipment, which often breaches current legislation and means that changes are easily left undocumented. From 1 January 2027, the requirements for full control, traceability and quality assurance in the handling of medical equipment are tightened. Storing goods of high value without modern IT support is therefore a significant legal and financial risk.
Manual lists are not always updated correctly and leave a large risk of error. Myloc's system support logs all events automatically. This saves time and secures regulatory compliance.
Inspections require immediate insight and control. Digital logistics enables rapid response and direct reporting of status and stock levels.
With systematic control, equipment can be maintained in line with applicable warranty requirements and stay useful to the organisation for longer, instead of standing unused.

Frequently asked questions
What is Myloc Trace and who is the app for?
Myloc Trace is a mobile app that gives medically responsible nurses, rehabilitation leads and care staff an overview and full traceability of all base equipment, per unit, room and storage location. It is built for municipalities, regions and private care providers responsible for medical devices in health and social care, who need to meet the MDR requirements on control, traceability and documented maintenance that manual lists cannot handle.
What does MDR require of care providers handling base equipment?
MDR requires the care provider to know which medical devices exist, where they are and that they are safe to use. That means traceability per product, documented maintenance and the ability to present the evidence during an inspection. Myloc Trace logs the events automatically when staff scan, move or maintain equipment on the phone.
What counts as base equipment in a care home?
Base equipment is the equipment the organisation provides for all residents, such as care beds, hoists, wheelchairs and mattresses, as opposed to individually prescribed assistive devices. Many of these products are medical devices and are therefore covered by requirements on traceability and maintenance.
Are spreadsheets enough to pass an inspection?
No. Manual lists are rarely updated as equipment is moved, replaced or serviced, and they lack a history of who did what and when. Digital system support gives traceable history and lets you show status and stock levels immediately during an inspection.
