Radio frequency identification (RFID) wristband systems have recently attracted a great deal of attention as an effective tool to avoid medical malpractice such as misidentification of patients. However, in the ICT-dependant society, this type of ICT-based information systems should be designed through careful deliberation from a social point of view, because the systems inevitably use patient information which contains sensitive data like medical history of the patients. One of the most promising ways of attaining socially responsible design of RFID wristband systems is to perform stakeholder analysis of the systems. In a stakeholder analysis session, participants ought to try to recognise as many kinds of risks regarding the use of RFID wristband systems as possible from their own points of view, and control of and trade-off between the risks should be deliberated.
