Pathology specimen labeling errors occur for a variety of reasons. We investigated the use of barcode technology as a method to improve the accuracy of pathology specimen labeling and patient safety. We also assessed nurses' perceptions of system quality, information quality, service quality, user satisfaction, and net benefits. Sixty-eight perioperative nurses who work in a teaching hospital in Taiwan completed the survey. Nurses scored net benefits as highly contributing to their satisfaction, whereas system quality contributed most to dissatisfaction. Further, we analyzed pathology specimen records before and after implementing the barcode system and found that specimen management errors significantly decreased. The use of a reliable barcode system could improve specimen labeling accuracy and enhance nurses' satisfaction with this technology.
病理标本 labeling 错误的发生有多种原因。我们研究了使用条形码技术作为提高病理标本 labeling 准确性和患者安全的一种方法。我们还评估了护士对系统质量、信息质量、服务质量、用户满意度和净收益的看法。在台湾一家教学医院工作的 68 名围手术期护士完成了调查。护士们将净收益评为对他们的满意度有很大贡献，而系统质量对不满的影响最大。此外，我们分析了实施条形码系统前后的病理标本记录，发现标本管理错误显著减少。使用可靠的条形码系统可以提高标本 labeling 准确性，并提高护士对该技术的满意度。
