In the simplest way to put it, Information Systems is “information in a system”. However, with more context, information systems allow for not only the recording of important information, but also the deliverance of it for the support of improvement of society who uses it through its management.

Seen in many different industries, whether it be the business sectors or even in the healthcare fields, the systems involved in aiding our collection, dissemination, storing, and retrieval of data are classified as Information systems. These complex networks of technology assist organizations and/or individuals in processes pertaining to the gathering, organization, and managing of all sorts of vital data in a much more structured and methodical platform. Centered on the goal of improved efficiency in any workplace/home setting, Information systems serve as databases that can hold various resources and materials all in… Read More

Looking at the two, I’d say Android is a better option because it offers flexibility — allowing users to freely modify the system; it’s more transparent; and it has wider developer support as more users use it because it’s more cost-effective (Mcdonald, 2011). However, I don’t think I’ll get to use the advantages it offers because I’m not good at handling computers and the technicals associated with it. It takes a lot of time to learn about it and I don’t think I have the time to invest in learning those things…. Read More

Having had the opportunity to utilize and familiarize myself with both iOS and Android operating systems over the years, I find it challenging to choose between the two. Nevertheless, as a current Apple device user who has experienced difficulties with using an Android phone in the past, I tend to favor iOS. Moreover, my preference for iOS over other operating systems stems from my belief that its software updates are superior, making it a robust and secure competitor.

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

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
