![Page 3: Decision support linked to Laboratory Information systems Dr Gerard Boran Adelaide and Meath Hospital Dublin Incorporating the National Children’s Hospital.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d775503460f94a59232/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Decision Support SystemsSupport for Health Care Professionals
• What is a decision support system?– "A DSS/KBS is any computer program designed
to help health professionals make clinical decisions" [Shortliffe, 1987] e.g...
• Information management• Focussing attention (alarms)• Consultation
![Page 4: Decision support linked to Laboratory Information systems Dr Gerard Boran Adelaide and Meath Hospital Dublin Incorporating the National Children’s Hospital.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d775503460f94a59232/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Decision Support SystemsSupport for Health Care Professionals
• Desirable DSS Features:
– can be configured by the local users
– have measurable benefits for patients and staff
– control “data intoxication”
– promote cost-effectiveness and efficient use of resources
– improve co-operation between central and remote labs
– based on appropriate informatics and telematic standards
– can be integrated with existing LIS, order communication systems, and relevant clinical information systems
![Page 5: Decision support linked to Laboratory Information systems Dr Gerard Boran Adelaide and Meath Hospital Dublin Incorporating the National Children’s Hospital.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d775503460f94a59232/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
DSS versus KBS
• Knowledge-based systems (KBS) are computer programs which seek to imitate human intelligence and expertise through the use of symbolic reasoning
• DSS emphasise SUPPORT for the decision-making process
![Page 6: Decision support linked to Laboratory Information systems Dr Gerard Boran Adelaide and Meath Hospital Dublin Incorporating the National Children’s Hospital.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d775503460f94a59232/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Do labs need DSS?
• Advances in laboratory technology – Automation– Integrated laboratories– distributed laboratories (satellite labs, point-of-
care facilities, etc)
• Increases in workload
• Limitations on staff and resources
![Page 7: Decision support linked to Laboratory Information systems Dr Gerard Boran Adelaide and Meath Hospital Dublin Incorporating the National Children’s Hospital.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d775503460f94a59232/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
What should they do?
• Have measurable benefits for patients and staff
• Measurable improvements in quality and efficiency
• Be configurable by local users
• Control data intoxication
• promote efficient use of resources
![Page 8: Decision support linked to Laboratory Information systems Dr Gerard Boran Adelaide and Meath Hospital Dublin Incorporating the National Children’s Hospital.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d775503460f94a59232/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Table 1. Validation Toolbox
1. Delta checks. The patients previous results are compared with the current results usingvarious techniques.
2. Internal consistency checks. The consistency between pathophysiologically relatedvariables is examined.
3. Instrument-specific checks. These vary depending on the instrument and analytical processused to generate the result and are often cariied out either by the instrument itself ormanually by the instrument operator
4. Other specific errors checks, e.g..
The EDTA Artefact. This results from contamination of lithium heparin bloodcollection tubes with the contents of EDTA blood collection tubes.
Sample Mix-ups. This results when one sample is given the identity of another,usually an adjacent sample on the workbench.
