System for automated recording and retrieval of information of patients with patient data verification

摘要

A system for recording information related to dialysis treatments provides verification of patient-identifying data. Patient-identifying data, such as a patient ID number, is entered using a dialysis machine used to provide dialysis treatment. The system accesses and displays at the dialysis machine an associated patient-identifying datum, such as the patient name, along with a query requesting verification of correct patient-identifying data entry. On receiving an affirmative verification response, the dialysis machine provides treatment and the system records data related to the treatment in association with the patient-identifying data. <IMAGE> <IMAGE>
