creitmeyer Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 I've noticed I haven't heard from anyone who is currently using Hemocare as their blood banking system. Is there anyone who is currently using Hemocare? We are in the process of converting to HCLL, however, we will probably start implementing ISBT while still on Hemocare. It would be great to hear from someone who is dealing with Hemocare to bounce some ideas, tips, etc... off of.ThanksC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Kriozere Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Mediware is supporting the Hema Trax on-demand ISBT128 compliance labeling systems. They have an interfaced version of Hema Trax ( see:www.digi-trax.com) for use with HCLL and the Hema Trax Stand-Alone for Hemocare users that can be used as back up once the switch to HCLL.

snvoh Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 We are also in the process of implementing HCLL. Our go-live date has been pushed back a few times and is running into the ISBT go-live from our supplier. We had visions of not having HCLL ready and having to use Hemocare when ISBT products started arriving. Fortunately our supplier said they can send ISBT products with Codabar hangtags - just in case and for a short period. Our volume is not too large. We probably won't need it but it was a big relief.Suzanne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhc Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 We are also Hemocare going to HCLL but will need to go up with ISBT on Hemocare. I have the ISBT product conversion file maintenance done and I can scan in what ISBT label samples I have so far. The next hurdle is to set up a label printer for the in-house labels we will need. Since Hemocare wont support ISBT label generation, I have a stand-alone PC running digitrax software but havent tested anything out yet. Any other Hemocare users out there with advice?

creitmeyer Posted October 25, 2007 Author Share Posted October 25, 2007 It sounds like we are in very similar situations. Our facility is currently waiting on the stand-alone program to arrive, and then we can start trying things out ourselves. It would be great to hear how things are going when you get started. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Kriozere Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Digi-Trax is expecting to be releasing Version 6.2 stand-alone Hema Trax within the next 2 weeks and if users have paid their Lifecycle Softyware Service (LSS) annual fee they will be able to download from our password protect web landing page at no cost.

cac Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 I tried scanning an ISBT number in Hemocare in outside source entry, it scanned an equal sign in front of the number then I had to hit the enter key to move to the next entry. I'm using a LS1004 scanner. I'm thinking it might be the scanner, but would be open to any suggestions. We too are in the process of implementing to HCLL. Visit me when you visit cin.

snvoh Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 The start byte for ISBT unit numbers is '='. Maybe you need to program the scanner for Code 128?
