Medical errors: Pre-analytical issue in patient safety [PDF]
The last few decades have seen a significant decrease in the rates of analytical errors in clinical laboratories, while a growing body of evidence demonstrates that the pre and post-analytical steps of the total testing process (TTP) are more error-prone

Analytical bias correction for two-step fixed effects models with copula-distributed errors [PDF]
We derive an analytical bias correction for two-step fixed effects models with copula-distributed errors. We work out the approximate bias correction for the Gaussian copula and present a numerical computation exercise for three other copula families ...

Post-analytical Error in Fatal Post-Cesarean Necrotizing Fasciitis and Sepsis: A Case Study [PDF]
This is a case study of a 28 year old morbidly obese pregnant female with severe pre-eclampsia. She delivered at 32 weeks gestation by emergency cesarean section, and was discharged at three days post-surgery. The patient developed sepsis secondary to necrotizing fasciitis. She had been released from the hospital without her final complete blood count (
