A system for positive patient identification, comprising:
- a database storing a plurality of patient data corresponding to a plurality of patients, wherein each patient data corresponds to a particular patient of the plurality of patients and includes at least one image of the particular patient;
- a processor;
- and
- a memory storing instructions executable by the processor, wherein the instructions when executed by the processor cause the system to:
- receive patient identification information;
- search the database for the patient data corresponding to the patient identification information received;
- extract the patient data corresponding to the particular patient identification information received;
- and
- display the patient data on a display including at least one image of the particular patient.
A method for positive patient identification, comprising:
- receiving patient identification information;
- searching a database, including a plurality of patient data corresponding to a plurality of patients, for the patient data corresponding to the particular patient;
- displaying the patient data corresponding to the patient identification information received on a display, wherein the patient data displayed includes at least one image of the particular patient.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a program which, when executed by a computer, causes the computer to perform a method for positive patient identification, comprising:
- receiving patient identification information corresponding to a particular patient;
- searching a database, including a plurality of patient data corresponding to a plurality of patients, for the patient data corresponding to the particular patient;
- displaying the patient data corresponding to the patient identification information received on a display, wherein the patient data displayed includes at least one image of the particular patient.
