LAN을 이용한 혈액가스 검사결과 전송시스템

Automatic transmission of data from the blood analyzer to the request site is one of the most important part in hospital computerization. We have developed a system that transmits data from the arterial blood gas analyzer to the request site automatically In this system HOST computer, FILE server,'LAN(Local Area Network) , 3270 Emulator and bfulti-port card are integrated with 3 blood gas analyzers(NOVA Inc., USA) which are connected to a single multi-port card in a personal computer. When specimen are collected from tramp)inly sites, they are transferee to the laboratory In the Yonsei Cardiovascular Center After analysis, the result is transmitted to the personal computer via serial commnunication between machine and multi-port card using interrupt method. Then, the patient's information (Name, Patient ID No., etc.) is obtained from the HOST computer througth the emulator. The combined data (patient information & lab data) is transmitted to each request site via LAN automatically These results are stored in the File Server for one year and they can be reviewed anytime. Also, it could be used for the various statistics and the flow chart for clinical research. Additionally, we found thal this system reduces the personal labor.
