摘要

导言：为了提高患者安全，减轻医护人员和医疗机构的负担，对手术器械进行单独管理至关重要。单个物品管理有两种方法：射频识别（RFID）和条形码。然而，目前还没有关于读取时间效率的研究。因此，本研究旨在比较 RFID 标签和条形码刻印手术器械的读取时间，并评估操作员熟练程度的影响：参与者包括 8 个人和 41 件静脉曲张手术器械。手术器械上分别贴有 RFID 标签和条形码。结果：贴有 RFID 标签的手术器械的读取时间短于贴有条形码的手术器械的读取时间：结果：熟练组和非熟练组的 RFID 标签手术器械的读取时间分别为 64.0 ± 9.0 秒和 79.4 ± 17.0 秒，而刻有条形码的手术器械的读取时间分别为 190.4 ± 28.1 秒和 212.3 ± 40.3 秒。熟练组和非熟练组读取条形码所需的时间分别是 RFID 标签器械的 3.0 倍和 2.7 倍。此外，使用条形码的熟练操作员所需的时间是使用 RFID 的非熟练操作员的 2.4 倍。即使是非医务人员也能使用 RFID 快速准确地读取数据。一年下来，RFID 的人均工时估计为 24,146 美元至 42,322 美元，条形码扫描的人均工时估计为 71,078 美元至 110,898 美元（250 天/天，每天工作 8 小时）：RFID 标签手术器械比条形码标签手术器械的工作量和经济负担更轻。RFID 技术还可减少对操作人员熟练程度的依赖，从而提高患者安全。

Comparison of Reading Times of RFID-Tagged and Barcode-Engraved Surgical Instruments

Introduction

To improve patient safety and reduce burden on healthcare professionals and institutions, the individual management of surgical instruments is essential. There are two methods for individual item management: radio-frequency identification (RFID) and barcoding. However, there has been no examination of efficiency regarding reading times. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the reading times of RFID-tagged and barcode-engraved surgical instruments and evaluate the influence of operator proficiency.

Methods

The participants included 8 individuals and 41 surgical instruments from a varicose vein set. RFID tags and barcodes were attached to the surgical instruments. Five trials were conducted for each, and the reading times were measured.

Results

The reading times for RFID-tagged surgical instruments in the skilled and unskilled groups were 64.0 ± 9.0s and 79.4 ± 17.0 s, respectively, whereas those for barcode-engraved surgical instruments were 190.4 ± 28.1 s and 212.3 ± 40.3 s, respectively. Barcodes took 3.0 and 2.7 times longer to read than RFID-tagged instruments for the skilled and unskilled groups, respectively. Additionally, skilled operators using barcodes required 2.4 times more time than unskilled operators using RFID. Even nonmedical individuals were able to achieve quick and accurate readings with RFID. The estimated labor hours per person were $24,146-$42,322 for RFID and $71,078-$110,898 for barcode scanning for a year (working 8 h/d for 250 d).

Conclusions

RFID-tagged surgical instruments impose a lighter workload and financial burden than barcode-engraved surgical instruments. RFID technology may also improve patient safety due to less dependency on operator proficiency.
