1 | | The SCAN-B ID that is used to keep track of all items is sensitive information that we should avoid to use externally. We should add a new unique identifier to Patient, Case, Specimen, NoSpecimen and Blood (including fullow-up blood) items. A simple running number that is zero-padded to 6 digits should be ok (same as we currently do for naming Patient items). Use 'P' as prefix for Patients, 'C' as prefix for Case items, and 'S' as prefix for specimen/nospecimen and 'B' for blood. If a case is arriving with multiple tubes, each tube should have it's own unique identifier. |
