Laboratory reporting of hemostasis assays: the final post-analytical opportunity to reduce errors of clinical diagnosis in hemostasis?

open access: yesClinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine, 2010
The advent of modern instrumentation, with associated improvements in test performance and reliability, together with appropriate internal quality control (IQC) and external quality assurance (EQA) measures, has led to substantial reductions in analytical errors within hemostasis laboratories.

Post-analytical errors with portable glucose meters in the hospital setting

Clinica Chimica Acta, 2009
Point-of-care testing (POCT) for blood glucose is widely used in different clinical settings and, thanks to its rapid turnaround time (TAT), it is commonly recommended in patients with critical conditions calling for urgent monitoring. However data in the literature on its reliability and safety are scarce. The aim of the present study was therefore to

“Pre-pre” and “post-post” analytical error: high-incidence patient safety hazards involving the clinical laboratory

Clinical Chemical Laboratory Medicine, 2007
AbstractData from recent studies suggest that the highest incidence of laboratory-related errors occurs in the pre-analytical phase of laboratory testing. However, few studies have examined the frequency of errors in laboratory test selection and interpretation. A survey of physicians who use our clinical laboratory demonstrated that the largest number
