NOTE: Deleting contrast barcodes in Barcode Configuration also removes this information from use in
the Certegra Workstation.
NOTE: If the patterns are the same for multiple contrast brands, they only need to be configured once.
For example, if multiple contrast brands contain the same expiration date template, only one
expiration date barcode pattern would need to be configured.
NOTE: If contrast packaging does not provide an expiration date or lot/batch barcode, the applicable
pattern cannot be configured.
To configure barcode patterns within Barcode Configuration, select any of the following under the Content Setup
drop-down menu.
Table 12 - 3: Where to Configure Barcode Pattern
Name the barcode pattern. For example, “Expiration Pattern 1” or the pattern itself
Pattern Name
(“MMYYYY”).
Identify the number of alphanumeric characters under the barcode. This information is
used to determine the number of fields needed for “Barcode Pattern”. For example, the
Barcode Length barcode length of “112020” is 6.
Use the "Prefix" field to hide characters that appear at the beginning of a barcode. Refer
Prefix (Optional)
to 12.4.2.2 - Configure Barcode Pattern to Hide Characters (Prefix/Suffix).
Use the "Suffix" field to hide characters that appear at the end of a barcode. Refer to
Suffix (Optional)
12.4.2.2 - Configure Barcode Pattern to Hide Characters (Prefix/Suffix).
* Patient/Study only
NOTE: Not every barcode contains a prefix and/or suffix. Configure prefix and/or suffix as needed.
(Optional) Configure a prefix and/or suffix in a barcode pattern to hide characters that appear at the beginning or
end of the barcode. For example, a patient MRN at a hospital may always begin with “MRN”; if these three extra
characters are determined to be unnecessary, the barcode can be configured to remove them.
A prefix and/or suffix can be defined for the following barcode patterns:
Q Expiration Date: Defining a prefix and/or suffix eliminates parts of the encoded barcode data from the
value that appears as the expiration date in the Fluid A tab of the Informatics Panel.
Q Lot/Batch: Defining a prefix and/or suffix eliminates parts of the encoded barcode data from the value
that appears as the lot/batch in the Fluid A tab of the Informatics Panel.
Q Patient/Study: Defining a prefix and/or suffix eliminates parts of the encoded barcode data from the value
that is used to query the Modality Worklist for patient and study information.
Enter the barcode length and barcode pattern first, then configure the preix/suffix as needed.
NOTE: Using characters or symbols that do not match the “Barcode Pattern” field results in an error
message.
12 - 100 Certegra® Applications and Workstation Accessories
NOTE: When configured, the prefix and/or suffix will be grayed out in the “Barcode Pattern” field.
In Figure 12 - 7: - Prefix/Suffix, the barcode pattern established is “**###@.” In this example, the “**” and the “@”
was determined to be unnecessary; therefore, these values are configured as prefix and suffix, respectively, in order
to remove this information from the barcode.
