Ten technologies that promise efficiency in the clinical lab.

As the decade of the '90s begins, laboratory information system (LIS) suppliers are aggressively pursuing the use of new technologies to enhance the performance, accessibility, convenience and portability of their laboratory information systems. The past year has shown some exciting progress in new developments in laboratory information systems. This article will provide a brief summary of each of these innovations in laboratory information systems.

Why spend the money? Justification of laboratory information systems.

Laboratory information systems (LISs) represent a major budget expense. Justification of their acquisition can be conducted through several methods. Work flow, work load, LIS experience, organization, and markets vary among laboratories; thus, each laboratory faces different challenges in determining if LIS acquisition can be justified on a sound business basis.

Proposed HCFA lab rules: the changing face for LIS.

The proposed Subpart P regulations are well-intended, but in many instances fail to take into account the capabilities of present state-of-the-art laboratory information systems and, in effect, may result in increased cost. This may preclude many laboratories from taking advantage of today's available technologies and systems. However, a number of the regulations are reasonable and non-aversive, and in fact reflect what is presently occurring in most well-managed computerized laboratories. CIOs and MIS directors may be interested in the ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) 1990 Annual Book of ASTM Standards, which includes several useful standards pertaining to computerized laboratory systems.
