ISBT128 on-demand labeling

[Richard Kriozere]

Hello:

Digi-Trax is the only company with an interfaced ISBT128 label system (Hema Trax TCP/IP. We are interfaced with every US blood bank software system.

In addition we have a VERY competitive Hema Trax PC Stand-Alone product with many features not found in any other system (full updated ISBT128 data base,

3 level password protection, complete audit trail reporting and much more).

We can arrange for a real time on-line demonstration or have one of our sales people contact you (info@digi-trax.com, www.digi-trax.com,

800-356-6126)

Richard,

Interfaced with every system except Misys Blood Bank that is. Any word in the industry when that is going to happen? As user friendly as the Stand Alone is, it will still make re-labeling very cumbersome when blood products are needed in a hurry.

Many Misys users are in the process of developing naming conventions for their ISBT bar coded products. Knowing exactly how interfaced printing will work within the application may guide them in how they are naming their codes now. In the current versions of Misys Blood Bank, the actual ISBT product code does not display anywhere in the application. Should users somehow be encoding the actual "E" numbers or will Misys change the way components are displayed?

Same with cerner classic. System is not interfaced with cerner classic. As a stand alone ISBT label printer, it is cumbersome and requires lots of verification to make sure right label is on right product.

Also another part where user has acess to full ISBT database, where user can go to ISBT database and print any label instead of going to QUICK pick. THis is scary. There is no way to we can restrict user to only quic pick(product list for your facility).

Yes there is a way to generate a report where you can see who printed what but it might be too late in some cases.

Hi Sunquest and Cerner Classic users. Digi-Trax has signed contracts with both to interface Hema Trax into both and the work is proceeding at both companies. I understand the Sunquest is quickly closing in on their client side. I will try to contact both companies to try to get an update for all. In the meantime you might contact your rep or inside support at Cerner or Sunquest to ask.

Thank you Richard. I hope you have better luck than I getting information. It seems Sunquest has been vague at best as to when and how interfaced label printing will be implemented.
