CONGRESS 2023 - Improving preanalytical processes and removing system waste
27/09/2023
Understanding your laboratories baseline data is the most important first step to identify where to improve services. Data is key to understanding preanalytical processes, simple things such as the location of phlebotomy clinics, the timings of transport collections, the number of paper requests all have an impact on specimen reception workflows and specimen turnaround times.
Many labs still continue to measure a specimen's turnaround time from the moment it arrives at the lab, which is too late.
We will demonstrate how data modelling and innovative transport solutions will improve system workflows, reduce specimen rejections, smooth out specimen arrivals, reduce the output of CO2 and meet the preanalytical quality requirements for your next UKAS inspection.

CONGRESS 2023 - Managing blood stocks in a shortage
27/09/2023
In 2022 the unthinkable happened - NHSBT was forced to declare an Amber Alert for red cells in England. But does that tell the whole story? This presentation will briefly examine the build-up to the shortage declaration but also consider its impact, provide evidence of the response within hospitals and consider the opportunities for future change in practices.
