Identification errors in pathology and laboratory medicine
Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 2004Identification errors involve misidentification of a patient or a specimen. Either has the potential to cause patients harm. Identification errors can occur during any part of the test cycle; however, most occur in the preanalytic phase. Patient identification errors in transfusion medicine occur in 0.05% of specimens; for general laboratory specimens ...

Laboratory errors and patient safety
International Journal of Health Care Quality Assurance, 2015Purpose – Laboratory data are extensively used in medical practice; consequently, laboratory errors have a tremendous impact on patient safety. Therefore, programs designed to identify and reduce laboratory errors, as well as, setting specific strategies are required to minimize these errors and improve patient safety ...

Communications in Soil Science and Plant Analysis, 1990
Abstract Analytical data have error. Data derived from some soil test activities have greater error than others. The seperate activities performed in each procedure have an error which combine to yield the total error for the procedure. While considerable effort has been given to controlling instrumental error, laboratory sampling appears to be the ...

A study of laboratory error in chemical pathology
Pathology, 1970Summary Annual proficiency surveys offer little hope of a constructive approach to the investigation of laboratory error in chemical pathology, which, despite the advent of automation, remains a serious problem. To make progress, the manipulations involved in laboratory estimations must be studied step by step.

Clinical laboratory error in perspective
Clinical Biochemistry, 1967Summary o 1. The subject of error in clinical analyses is reviewed. Arising from this, it is suggested that a more complete evaluation of laboratory variation, particularly as to the type of frequency distribution of the error of results, would lead to a better use of the results. 2.

Laboratory Errors and the Misdiagnosis of Tuberculosis
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1997To the Editor. —We commend Dr Nitta and colleagues 1 for their analysis of factors that may contribute to the misdiagnosis of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR TB). The New York City Department of Health Bureau of Tuberculosis Control has identified several cases in which a misdiagnosis of TB resulted from contamination of a laboratory specimen ...

[Laboratory errors – why the laboratory is not (always) to blame].
Therapeutische Umschau. Revue therapeutique, 2015More than half of the so called "laboratory errors" has already happened before the analysis starts in the laboratory and many mistakes are made after the analysis itself. Pre- and post-analytical errors cause 60 to 90 % of all unexpected or erroneous values; only 10 to 15 % are caused by analytical problems.
