Many machine-readable identification systems (MRIS) that can automatically identify patients and their laboratory specimens are described in this paper. It is recommended that greater use be made of bar-code, optical character, or magnetic ink label printers and readers, to permit MRIS of X-ray films, EKGs, EEGs, and other tracings, drugs, and blood-products, as well as for requisitions, forms, charges, reports, and medical records. This technology will contribute greatly to eliminate a major source of error in health care, as well as accelerate the performance of many procedures, control cost by reducing personnel levels, and improve medical care substantially.
本文介绍了许多能够自动识别患者及其实验室标本的机器可读识别系统（MRIS）。建议更多地使用条形码、光学字符或磁性墨水标签打印机和读取器，以便对X光片、心电图、脑电图及其他描记图、药品和血液制品进行机器可读识别，同时也用于申请单、表格、费用、报告和医疗记录。这项技术将极大地有助于消除医疗保健中的一个主要错误来源，加快许多程序的执行速度，通过减少人员数量来控制成本，并大幅改善医疗服务。
