New generation hospital information system

Digitalization as a driver of quality, efficiency and competitiveness

More security, lower costs through tailor-made identification technologies – digital transformation

The way to Improving patient safety begins with its clear identification: Right patient, right medication, right dose, right process, right time.
The changes that come with advancing digitalization in hospitals are an impetus to rethink and redesign established processes. In digital workflows, all relevant information is available to all practitioners at any time. One intelligent identification technology not only increases efficiency in everyday work, but also quality. Interaction with patients will also become increasingly important in the future. Because in the future they will play a much more active role in healthcare. Hospitals that play a pioneering role here are highly attractive to patients and have a clear competitive advantage.

Uncompetitive without identification technology

Networked care and digital processes have the potential to significantly improve efficiency and quality in hospitals and at the interfaces to the practice area. In order to ensure needs-based inpatient care, identification technology is an indispensable link for the exchange of information, interdisciplinary work and networking with the most diverse work processes in a hospital. In order to remain sustainable in the long term, even in times of limited financial and human resources, there are a number of ways to make everyday medical work easier. For example, the technological leap from hand-written stickers to automatically printed barcode labels has already been made in many places in industry - the diverse possible uses of computer-readable labels are also particularly advantageous for clinics and hospitals.

Identification technologies in hospitals

Secure identification

In order to counteract a lack of identification due to illegible handwriting, so that patients are not given the wrong medication or tissue samples are mixed up, for example, it is easier to assign the patient a barcode when they are admitted, which they can use during their stay Special bracelet carries with him. This means that his data can be read out at a workstation that is equipped with a scanner and connected to the hospital information system and compared with the medical file. The patient and “his” barcode are closely linked to each other for the entire duration of the treatment or stay. All processes are recorded via the barcode and documented at the same time through the connection to the database. In this way, a barcode label on a blood sample can protect against a fatal mix-up. Barcode scans mean that any medication is not only safe and correct, but also clearly traceable. Through tablets and scanning the RFID wristbands of patients, doctors always know for sure who they are dealing with and can directly view their medical history. Colleagues can check whether doctors are currently undergoing an examination or, for example, where they are taking a break if they need their supportsearch.

Of course, barcode printers can also be used in non-medical areas - for example when ordering and assigning patient meals or when billing for additional services such as television or telephone use. The bracelets can contain text, barcodes or RFID components that carry information such as the patient's name, an identification number stored in the HIS, the blood group or information about allergies. A special surface ensures that the tapes remain legible even when they come into contact with water, alcohol, soap, blood or other liquids. They also have an antibacterial coating to meet hygienic requirements. The significant benefits of mobile technologies in hospitals are driving the increasing use of mobile devices in every area of patient care.
