title: A remote-controlled television-monitored laboratory records room.
abstract: One of the by-products of computerizing a clinical laboratory is the resultant increase in paper production and its associated manual system overloads. In an attempt to resolve this problem, we have devised a computer-generated laboratory record system that provides continuous access, yet ensures record security. By the use of closed-circuit television, intercom, and a microfilm reader/printer, it is possible to configure a remote record facility that is convenient for physician use and yet operates with a low original capital investment and utilizes no additional personnel.
