How To Make ID/Positive Work In Your Lab
ID/Positive enables an efficient and error-free lab workflow by harnessing the power
of barcodes to positively identify specimens as they are collected, received and
processed. The printed barcodes contain unique patient, case and specimen data
from the laboratory information system (LIS).
There are a number of options for integrating ID/Positive specimen identification
solutions into your LIS:
-
A growing number of laboratory information systems have barcode
tracking modules available, or already built into their system. They integrate ID/Positive cassette
markers and label printers, and utilize bar codes to identify and track specimens throughout the lab
process. These include:
-
A number of “middleware” solutions are available that are compatible
with ID/Positive and can pass data to and from your LIS to control barcode
printing, scanning and specimen tracking. These include:
- Existing lab systems can also be customized or modified to enable data
access, reporting, barcode printing, and scanning with ID/Positive.
General Data can work with you to determine which option is best for your laboratory’s needs, objectives and budget today and into the future.
