ABSTRACT
Objective To design a Chinese phonetic laboratory system for clinical blood and urine analysis with Chinese pronunciation. Methods The database/table for saving data of patients is established on the basis of Microsoft Access 2000. The Windows Chinese speech function API is used for Chinese pronunciation. The codes of all objects are translated to an executive file which is set up with Visual Basic 6.0 tool kit. Results All data received from 100,000 samples are saved without error in the program running. The Chinese pronunciation is clear. Conclusion This Chinese phonetic laboratory system is effective and flexible in managing the data from blood analyzer and urine analyzer, which helps to improve the standardization of laboratory data report in Out-patient Department.
