Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a growing technology among different industries. As a technology, it has been used since the Second World War, but just in the last decade, the information technology (IT) community and healthcare have been taking more action on studying and developing the technology. In this paper, we represent the general requirements that healthcare sets for the RFID technology. The paper is a part of the research project MaISSI (Managing IT Services and Service Implementation) where our aim is to implement an automated identification system (AIMC) for our case hospital's medication care. The AIMC uses the RFID technology for patient identification and the bar code technology for medication identification. The system will automate the identification processes during medication administration, reduce medication errors and increase the patient safety.
射频识别（RFID）是一项在不同行业中不断发展的技术。作为一项技术，它自第二次世界大战以来就已被使用，但就在过去十年中，信息技术（IT）界和医疗保健领域才开始采取更多行动来研究和开发这项技术。在本文中，我们阐述了医疗保健对RFID技术提出的一般要求。本文是研究项目MaISSI（管理IT服务与服务实施）的一部分，我们的目标是为我们的案例医院的药物护理实施一个自动识别系统（AIMC）。AIMC使用RFID技术进行患者识别，使用条形码技术进行药物识别。该系统将使药物管理过程中的识别流程自动化，减少用药错误并提高患者安全性。
