The Development of Blood Bank Management Program

혈액 은행 전산 처리 프로그램의 개발

The blood bank is a field of clinical pathology which requires the most accuratemaintenanceofrecording. Because the mistake in it is directly related to a patient's life. So, the computerization of the blood bank is urgent to maintain a log blook arid to compare the patient's current data with past result. We developed the blood bank management program using 32 bit minicomputer. This is composed of 4 parts; a management of routine test result, special test result, the blood issue and statistics. The management of routine test result handles the patient's information and blood typing and compares above results with the past one of same patient. The management of special test result are for special immunohematologic tests like an irregular antibody, Coombs' test, and etc. Blood issue part records the type of the blood bag, component, and the name of issuer. Statistic part are made to get statistics of each day and each month by the blood type, and the type the blood component. The program is secured by the maintenance of operator's operation history and thu provision of the security code to each operator, without which no one can enter the system and after the content. So the stability and reliability of the data is obtained. This program will be upgraded for bar-code using system in the near future.
