IMPORTANT
Use of bar codes is an extremely accurate and effective method of data capture. Certain
features, such as checksum digits, maximize accuracy in reading Codabar, NW7, Code 39, and Interleaved
2-of-5 labels. In one study, the use of checksum digits detected 97% of misread errors.
Use checksums to provide protection against occasional misread errors caused by problems such as
damaged or misapplied labels. If you must use bar codes without checksums, it is recommended that you
verify each bar-code reading to assure correct patient identification.
