Embodiment Construction

[0016] refer to figure 1 , the medical information system 100 generates and manages medical information (eg, patient information) related to healthcare procedures associated with patients, such as administering medicines to patients or other clinical procedures. Medical information can be stored in a machine-accessible format. In one embodiment, the patient's medical information is encoded in the patient barcode label 104 along with the patient identifier. In other arrangements, the medical information is stored separately from the barcode label 104 (eg, in a remotely located memory) and can be retrieved based on information readable from the barcode label 104 , such as a patient identifier. The medical information in the barcode label 104 (or from a separate source) can be read or retrieved and displayed by the data reader 106 . In some implementations, the data reader 106 takes the form of a hand-held portable device to read, retrieve and use patient information, such as c...

Abstract

Among other things, a computer implemented method includes receiving a unique patient identifier for a patient. The method also includes using the unique patient identifier to retrieve medical information associated with the patient from a centralized information source that includes a patient record containing the medical information. After performing a medical procedure on the patient based on the retrieved medical information, the method includes updating the patient record in the centralized information source to reflect the performed medical procedure.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] Pursuant to 35 USC § 119(e), this application claims priority to prior U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 155,744, filed February 26, 2009, and U.S. Provisional Application No. 61 / 175,162, filed May 4, 2009 Right, the entire contents of these two applications are incorporated herein by reference. Background technique [0003] This article deals with documenting medical information to support healthcare professionals. [0004] When a patient is received at a healthcare facility (referred to as a hospital for simplicity), patient information is often captured and made available to healthcare facility employees, such as hospital staff. Generally, such information may include patient identity, address, age, occupation, next of kin, medical history, status of treatment sought, pre-existing conditions, health insurance information, and the like. While in a hospital, patient information can be dynamically altered or appended...
