What is LIS and its Uses? The LIS is at the center of clinical laboratory information management. It is a combination of software, hardware, and operating systems created to support the clinical laboratory’s operational procedures. Depending on the requirements of each laboratory, the LIS setup can be altered and is highly versatile. In order to effectively manage the information flow between patients, healthcare professionals, and laboratories, LIS must be planned to optimize both laboratory operations and individualized clinical care. The use of laboratory information systems can enhance both patient care and laboratory… Read More

A Laboratory Information System (LIS), also referred to as Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS), is a component of a Health Information System or a type of information technology. In essence, it is a computer software system designed to collect, process, store, and manage pertinent data to the functions and operations of a clinical laboratory. Such data include test orders or requests, patient information or record, laboratory results, staff information, financial or accounting records, inventory of materials and equipment, and the like. This kind of system serves as an all-in-one platform where most,… Read More

Laboratory Information Systems and their uses: Laboratory Information System (LIS) manages the day-to-day workflow and activities of a clinical laboratory including asset tracking, status monitoring, task segmentation and distribution, and is fundamental to the operation of a laboratory. Laboratory Information Systems are unique and specialized to each laboratory as they are made depending on the requirements of the staff, users, and the laboratory itself (Sinard J. et. al., 2015). Artificial Intelligence and its Implications: Artificial Intelligence (AI) refers to the replication or simulation of human intelligence by computer systems or machines. For… Read More

Technology has played an incredible role in the medical field in recent years. It has been revolutionizing the way healthcare is delivered and received from the development of manually writing data to type it on computers with systems such as Electronic Health Records (EHR). Technology has enabled healthcare providers to improve patient outcomes, increase efficiency, manage patient information, and reduce costs. One area where technology significantly impacts is the development and use of Laboratory Information Systems (LIS) and Artificial Intelligence (AI). LIS and AI have greatly helped improve the accuracy and efficiency… Read More

A laboratory information system (LIS) is software used to manage laboratory procedures, data, and outcomes. Its goal is to increase the efficiency and precision of laboratory activities such as sample tracking, test ordering, and result reporting. A LIS can also enhance patient care by providing doctors with fast and reliable laboratory test data. There is numerous available Laboratory Information Systems (LIS) present for laboratories to choose from. In the Philippines, we have MedTech’s MEDITECH LIS and Sunquest Information Systems’ LIS. In addition, some LIS sellers are Cerner Corporation, Orchard Software, and Siemens… Read More

What is LIS? The LIS acronym stands for Laboratory Information System. It is a software program used in clinical and research laboratories to manage and record laboratory procedures and outcomes. LIS features frequently include monitoring of patients and samples, ordering of tests and reporting of results, quality control, and inventory management (McCudden, Henderson, & Jackson, 2020). Uses of LIS? Automating procedures like result reporting and inventory management, laboratory operations became more efficient. Lowering the possibility of human mistake and providing methods for quality control and quality assurance, test findings’ accuracy and quality were… Read More

What is LIS? LIS is also known as Laboratory Information System. It is a programmed software that processes, stores, ang manages the data of the patient (DelVecchio, 2015).  With that, it makes the laboratory more efficient and effective, especially when they are dealing with large amount of samples for research and development, manufacturing, and medical research. What are the uses of LIS? LIS or Laboratory Information System have various uses in a laboratory setting. It can help in tracking samples since it stores and manages the data of the patient. Also, it… Read More

CHRISTINE JOY C. PRADERA MT14 – CC   What is a laboratory information system? A laboratory information system is an information system designed for processing, storing, and managing patient data for medical processes and the testing needs of a clinical laboratory (McCudden et.al, 2020). It is a complete network of computer components used by laboratory professionals to coordinate their day-to-day workflow and reduce the workload needed to complete laboratory orders. It tracks clinical data for efficient analysis and observation and stores it in its database for physicians and laboratory professionals to assess…. Read More
