The Evaluation of Error Types and Turnaround Time of Preanalytical Phase in Biochemistry and Hematology Laboratories
Background& Objective: Each laboratory should determine the type of errors and turnaround time (TAT), especially in the preanalytical phase to report quality and timeliness of the test results. The current study aimed at investigating the common causes of preanalytical errors in biochemistry and hematology laboratories and evaluating the preanalytical ...
متن کاملPhysical activity - an important preanalytical variable
The concentration of several biochemical and hematological biomarkers is strongly influenced by a number of preanalytical variables. Several lines of evidence attest that short, middle, and long-term exercise, as well as the relative intensity of physical effort (from mild to strenuous), may influence a broad array of laboratory variables. The amount of extracellular release and clearance from ...
متن کاملPre-preanalytical error and patient safety: an important concern for diabetic care
Laboratory investigation plays an important role in diabetic care. Laboratory results are required for diagnosis, monitoring and followi up of the diabetic patient. To have a good diabetic management, accurate and reliable laboratory tests are required. Based on the principle of laboratory medicine, quality management covering all phases of laboratory analysis; preanalytical, analytical and pos...
متن کاملInterdisciplinary communication: an uncharted source of medical error?
Medical error and patient safety have become important issues and are reported to be the 8th leading cause of death among Am ericans [1]. There is a growing unders tandi ng that the clinical environment and clinical processes—not individual clinicians—are the major contributors to medical error. The purpose of our analysis was to focus on one aspect of the systems approach to error—the role of ...
متن کاملDefects in sphygmomanometers: an important source of error in blood pressure recording.
Almost half the sphygmomanometers in a teaching hospital group had defects in the control valve which interfered with accurate blood-pressure reading. Ward staff should be taught to check sphygmomanometers regularly and replace control valves; time consumption and cost are low. The cuffs in general use in these hospitals, and of the standard size sold in Britain, had rubber bags which did not e...
