Presentation Transcript

  1. Pathology Labs and their functions: Pathology laboratories play a vital role in diagnosing pathological diseases by analyzing biological samples, such as blood, urine, and tissue. These labs are equipped with advanced technology and trained personnel to perform stagewise tests on these samples. Unlike traditional diagnostic laboratories, pathology labs specialize in more complex and specialized diagnoses, making them an essential component of the medical field. Also, these tasks are time-consuming, and it is advisable to use pathology lab software.

  2. Pathology labs are known to conduct specialized tests. A few of them are as follows:  Histology - Analyzing the tissue samples for abnormal cells or structures.  Cytology - Analyzing cells from bodily fluids, to diagnose diseases.  Immunohistochemistry - Using antibodies to test for the presence of certain proteins in tissue samples.  Molecular Biology- Analyzing DNA or RNA for genetic mutations or abnormalities.  Toxicology - Analyzing samples for harmful substances. Virology- Analyzing samples for viral infections.

  3. Lab Information Management System: As the name suggests, a “Lab Information Management System” is software designed to support the diagnostic and pathological labs to handle their routine, easily. This is an integrated software, that comes with great features like sample tracking and management, keeping records of patient and investigation details and generating enlightening reports from them, TAT reports, etc., These labs work on a large number of samples every day, and provide their customers with the required results, promptly. But every process is time-consuming and requires excellent attention to detail and the need to avoid any misses. Possessing a digital assistant for your lab can help in achieving your daily needs, without hassle.

  4. These are a few functionalities of streamlined Lab Management Software:

  5. Managing Lab Orders:Lab software can organize the orders that have come in for the day. This helps in operating the daily activities, at every stage, and not having a miss.  Sample Tracking and Management:A basic lab software has the feature allowing the initial steps of sample collection, accession, segregation, and testing to be recorded, and tracked eventually. This helps in having a complete record of the lab activities online, thereby assisting the technician in handling the further operations of the sample life cycle and preventing time delays.  Machine Interfacing:With this service, the labs can have the results generated, by either giving a manual input or interconnecting the devices bidirectionally, thus the efforts towards test result generation are reduced.

  6. Report generation and notification:The final event of any lab test is verifying the test results and generating the test report. This is accomplished online, wherein a certified, authorized professional validates and approves the test report and this test completion is also notified to the customer. Some lab software also sends an Email report to the customer. TAT Reports:Turn Around Time is an essential factor that decides the efficiency and genuineness of the lab that processes a sample. Achieving a legible turnaround time is essential and serves as an indicator of how well the lab performs. This report helps the labs to analyze their work and improve if required. Thus, using Lab Management Software to monitor and operate the day-to-day activities in a Pathology Lab is critical, and it improves the lab's efficiency and accuracy.
