Abstract
Aichi Koseiren-Aihoku Hospital has implemented a New Glucose Monitoring System,using Precision PCx and its data management application, QC Manager (both Abbott Japan), for outpatient testing. It utilizes the advantages that have come with the introduction of the Ordering System. The new system has automated a great portion of glucose monitoring workflow and reduced the human work, and consequently, the potential risk of malfunction due to human errors. The system has been designed and developed to meet the following criteria; To be able to fully utilize the potential capabilities of the Ordering System (Barcode recognition of test samples); To be capable of transferring test results automatically to the Laboratory Information System without being handled by human; To improve the productivity as a whole system; To possess the precision and accuracy;and To be handled easily for bed-side use.
