Lab Collection Process
- Specified laboratory tests are tallied for every patient for their entire LOS (length of stay)in a unit. (E.G. total number of CBC diff done during LOS in unit).
- manual tallying of lab tests is done only in the ICU's in the city.
- HSC ICU manually collects some lab tests that are not downloaded from the Hospital Delphic system.
- lab tests are downloaded from the Hospital computer system only at HSC for ICU and medicine.
- HSC has a program that interfaces with the Delphic system that allows us to access this data. For more information see Data_Processing.
- for a list of which tests are tallied see S_labs.
