To develop techniques to improve efficiency and accuracy of data entry in microbiology, using a commercially available laboratory information system that is keystroke-intensive.
A combination of technologies, including bar-coded phrase sheets, keyboard macros, and bar-coded specimen labels, are used to automate the entry of commonly used keystroke sequences and combinations of culture findings.
An acute care hospital laboratory.
Laboratory technologists.
Feasibility, report error rates, and technologist time.
Qualitative: implementation of all three technologies proved feasible and practical. Quantitative: a 25-fold decrease in misreported cultures, as well as a 50% saving in reading time for new urine cultures.
This set of technologies for keystroke reduction would be of general applicability to laboratories with a variety of different laboratory information systems.
利用一个按键操作密集的商用实验室信息系统，开发提高微生物学数据录入效率和准确性的技术。
采用包括条形码短语表、键盘宏和条形码标本标签在内的多种技术组合，以自动录入常用的按键序列和培养结果组合。
一家急症护理医院实验室。
实验室技术人员。
可行性、报告错误率和技术人员时间。
定性：所有三种技术的实施证明是可行且实用的。定量：错误报告的培养结果减少了25倍，新尿液培养的读取时间节省了50%。
这套减少按键操作的技术将普遍适用于拥有各种不同实验室信息系统的实验室。
