CA 2587480

The method and system include marking a surgery site (e.g., location of surgical incision) or a site of other medical action with a machine-readable medical marking (e.g., bar code or a dot pattern), which may be used in conjunction with (1) a scanner for reading the machine-readable medical marking and (2) a controller for controlling medical actions in response to the read machine-readable medical marking. The system and method ensure the validation of the surgical procedure, the patient awaiting the surgical procedure, and the site or location on the patient where the surgery is to be performed. Utilizing a scanning device for reading machine-readable medical markings, and a controller, there are additional means to check and double check the medical action before the actual medical action (e.g., surgery) is performed.

La présente invention concerne un procédé et un système qui consistent à marquer un site chirurgical (par exemple l'emplacement d'une incision chirurgicale) ou un site d'une autre action médicale avec une marque médicale lisible par machine (par exemple un code-barres ou un motif de points) qui peuvent être utilisés avec (1) un scanner permettant de lire ces marques médicales lisibles par machine et (2) un contrôleur permettant de commander les actions médicales en réponse à la lecture des marques médicales lisibles par machine. Ce système et ce procédé permettent de valider l'intervention chirurgicale, le patient attendant cette intervention chirurgicale, et le site ou l'emplacement sur l'anatomie du patient où cette intervention chirurgicale doit être effectuée. Par l'utilisation d'un dispositif de balayage pour lire des marques médicales lisibles par machine et d'un contrôleur, on obtient un moyen additionnel de vérifier et d'effectuer une double vérification de l'action médicale avant que l'action médicale réelle (par exemple une intervention chirurgicale) soit effectuée.
