Abstract

A typical hospital laboratory processes 1.1 million specimens each year. Approximately 80% of these specimens require pre-analytical preparation. Specimen preparation is the unresolved challenge facing today’s laboratory. Pre-analytical specimen preparatory functions include the steps from specimen collection to its transfer to a laboratory work station or work cell. Specimen preparation is complex, hazardous, and crucial and is not necessarily well controlled. There are over 60 decision points in this process.
