Autoverification in Clinical Chemistry: Basics, Concepts, Methods

As per IS/ISO:15189 2007, every examination in a patient sample performed by a medical laboratory is to be followed by post-examination verification procedure just before printing a report or delivering it to the patient.Manual verification of laboratory reports is time consuming and error prone.Use of computer based auto-verification is answer to the problem of verification of large number of examination results produced by modern day busy clinical chemistry laboratory. Not only the task of verification may be completed by computer fast with lessened human error but also free costly human resource at the same time satisfying IS/ISO:15189 2007 based accreditation requirements.This study should especially useful to professionals in Medical laboratory.
