As projects developed they gradually drew in a wide variety of additional stakeholders including policy makers (CS2 and 3), administrators (CS1), information technology specialists (CS1), laboratory staff (CS2 and 3), health providers, community members and various professional organisations (CS1-4).
Automated reporting of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) is a recent advance in laboratory information technology (IT) that generates a measure of kidney function with chemistry laboratory results to aid early detection of chronic kidney disease (CKD).
Less well described is the need for laboratory information technology infrastructure, to link samples and results to patients, and return the laboratory data from the testing facilities to the clinicians at the sites of care.
The chapters devoted to laboratory management provide excellent insights on the rapidly evolving field of laboratory information technology.
To maintain the ability of ABCs to answer questions of high importance, the network must continue to embrace and adapt to the changing public health, laboratory, information technology and medical landscapes.
To enhance detection and management of CKD, the VHA adopted system-wide automated eGFR reporting by providing a software patch for existing laboratory information technology (IT) systems in 2004.
To describe the management of and satisfaction with laboratory testing, and desirability of laboratory health information technology in the nursing home setting.
