自動化和網路化的技術能使得醫院能降低作業成本和提升商業的效率。許多大型醫院在整合了HIS、PACS、NIS和LIS後顯著地提升作業效率，但是這對於許多的中小型醫院而言，由於將所有的系統網路化和自動化必須花費許多的成本，目前一些中小型醫院仍然停留在人工或半自動的操作環境。
　　本論文中，我們運用簡單的連線方式為中型醫院建立LIS系統雛型，將原來必須將檢驗報告以人工輸入HIS資料庫的作業方式，提升為自動化輸入及網路連線作業。初步結果已經完成三台血液檢驗儀的連線，利用串列埠將檢驗結果傳送到擷取閘道器中，結果顯示作業時間明顯降低。另一方面，也使得所有的檢驗報告能夠自動化的傳送和儲存到擷取閘道器中，並轉換成HIS標準格式，以利整合整個醫院的病歷表。
　　未來我們將持續的完成下列兩項工作：(1)完成生化檢驗系統和尿液檢驗系統之連線，(2)設計一個能將檢驗結果從擷取閘道器傳送至HIS資料庫。

　　Automation and network technologies can reduce the operation cost and increase the business efficiency for the hospitals. Although hospital information system (HIS), which integrates picture archiving and communication system (PACS), nursing information system (NIS) and laboratory information system (LIS), has been widely implemented in most large-scaled hospitals and has greatly improved their operation efficiency, some middle- or small-scaled hospitals still rely on systems with manual operation or semi-automated operation because of their budget deficiency.
　　In this thesis we present a preliminary result of a simple LIS implementation for a middle-scaled hospital where the laboratory reports were originally input to the HIS manually. Serial ports of three blood test instruments were used to connect to an acquisition computer and for acquiring the test reports, which were then transferred to the HIS for integration with the patient records. The results show that the operation time is significantly reduced.
　　This work has constructed a prototype which is valuable for later system expansion and LIS software development. Future works will keep working on (1) connecting other equipment, including urine and biochemistry examination instruments, to the system and expanding the scale to cover all the instruments; (2) designing related LIS software for greatly promote the laboratory efficiency in the hospital.
