Popis: Assisted reproduction has become a service that more and more people access. Current problems such as the delay in the age of motherhood, single-parent couples, etc. they have proliferated the options and the different treatments that are put at the service of society. A fundamental part of these processes lies in the work of laboratories, in the samples that are handled in clinical processes and then be implanted in future mothers. The management of the samples is a critical aspect that requires all the opportune mechanisms that guarantee the traceability of said samples, avoiding fatal errors. The correct identification, monitoring and control of them is a fundamental aspect and of special relevance. However, the systems currently offered to clinics present important problems. On the one hand, they offer little security, are very expensive or very independent of a specific provider, so that the traceability system cannot be connected to the hospital central management system, or they are very intrusive control systems in the daily work of the laboratory technicians. In this paper a software solution based on the definition of automatic models and protocols is proposed. It includes the appropriate devices, to manage the traceability of the samples in parallel to the work of the laboratory technician.
