A.2 Example of barcode symbologies
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 appli-
cable to your specific workflow. These options are:
■
check ID against list or
■
check ID for length
1
■
use barcodes with check digits
In combination with the above options or as a single
measure, use an appropriate barcode mask if this is com-
patible with the structure of your barcode content.
WARNING
Risk of barcode read errors
If a barcode is read incorrectly, this may lead to patient
misidentification and therefore to inappropriate therapy
decisions.
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.
1. 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.
