Abstract

During previous decades, significant improvements in laboratory errors have become a substantial part of reducing preventable diagnostic errors. In clinical labo ratory practice, the errors in the testing process are pri marily associated with extra-analytical phase error sources, influencing the test result quality profoundly. Thus, the management of these critical error sources makes their effects preventable thanks to automation and computer sciences. The implementation of non-analytical automated systems requires a risk management strategy based on laboratory’s workflow and bottlenecks. Then, the improvements can be measured and evaluated by the usage of quality indicators (QI). Consequently, the total quality of laboratory diagnostics and higher patient safety is closely dependent on this type of automation. This review will help laboratory professionals, managers, and directors improve the total testing processes (TTP). The automation technologies have added a serious impact on the proficiency of laboratory medicine. Several ins trumentations have now partially or entirely automated many manual tasks to improve standardization, organi zation, efficiency, and TTP quality. The implementation of non-analytical automation has made them manageable. As a result, non-analytical automation within and outside the clinical laboratory will necessarily lessen the error sources’ effect on the total test process, enhancing the quality of the test results.

Özet

Önceki on yıllarda, laboratuvar hatalarındaki önemli gelis¸meler, önlenebilir tes¸his hatalarını azaltmanın önemli bir parçası haline gelmis¸tir. Klinik laboratuvar uygulama sında, test sürecindeki hatalar öncelikle ekstra analitik faz hata kaynakları ile ilis¸kilendirilir ve test sonuç kalitesini derinden etkiler. Böylelikle bu kritik hata kaynaklarının yönetimi, otomasyon ve bilgisayar bilimleri sayesinde etkilerini önlenebilir hale getirir. Non-analitik otomatik sistemlerin uygulanması, laboratuvarın is¸ akıs¸ına ve dar bogazlara dayal ˘ ı bir risk yönetimi stratejisi gerektirir. Ardından kalite göstergeleri kullanılarak iyiles¸tirmeler ölçülebilir ve degerlendirilebilir. Sonuç olarak, laboratuvar ˘ tes¸hislerinin toplam kalitesi ve daha yüksek hasta güvenligi, bu tip otomasyonla yak ˘ ından bagl˘ ıdır. Bu der leme makalesi, laboratuvar uzmanlarının, yöneticilerinin ve direktörlerinin toplam test süreçlerini iyiles¸tirmesine yardımcı olacaktır. Otomasyon teknolojileri, laboratuar tıbbının yeterliligi üzerinde ciddi bir etki yaratm ˘ ıs¸tır. Pek çok enstrümantasyon, toplam test süreci standardi zasyonu, organizasyonu, verimliligi ve kalitesini iyi- ˘ les¸tirmek için birçok manuel is¸ ve is¸lemi kısmen veya tamamen otomatikles¸tirmis¸tir. Non-analitik otomasyonun uygulanması bu is¸lemleri yönetilebilir hale getirmis¸tir. Sonuç olarak, klinik laboratuvar içindeki ve dıs¸ındaki non analitik otomasyon, hata kaynaklarının toplam test süreci üzerindeki etkisini kaçınılmaz olarak azaltacak ve test sonuçlarının kalitesini artıracaktır.
