A.2 Example of barcode symbologies
If a barcode is read incorrectly, this may lead to
patient misidentification and therefore to
inappropriate therapy decisions.
r
When creating patient or operator barcodes,
always adhere to the applicable international IEC/
ISO standards for the respective barcode
symbology. In particular, ensure that barcode size
and print quality (as defined in ISO/IEC 15416 and
15415) are adequate. Inadequate print size and/or
quality may lead to erroneous decoding. In
addition every user must carry out a plausibility
check on all data scanned into and displayed by
the instrument.
To reduce the probability of the barcode being
misread, it is strongly recommended that you use the
configuration options for patient and/or operator ID
validation as applicable to your specific workflow.
These options are:
¾
check ID against list or
¾
check ID for length
(12)
¾
use barcodes with check digits
Always make sure that the entire barcode is covered
by the green light beam when scanning.
(12)
If no operator/patient list can be used, it is recommended that you at least set a minimum length for the
respective ID, even if your facility uses IDs of varying length.
