example 1

[0099] 示例1:对于每小时平均治疗4名患者、平均预测偏差为30分钟的医疗从业者,则将确定2名患者的阈值。因此,如果医疗从业者的工作量是5名患者,则意味着结果无论如何都会处于闲置状态,因此测试命令可能会被优先化。另一方面,如果医疗从业者的工作量是1名患者,则意味着结果有可能太晚才可用的风险,因此应将测试命令优先化。

example 2

[0100] 示例2:当医疗从业者在上午8点开始他 / 她的工作班次时,工作量为0或“空”并且分析结果的预测可用性是上午8:30,这意味着应该将测试命令优先化。但是,如果分析结果的预测可用性是凌晨1:30,那么分析结果将很早,因为医疗从业者不会在办公室,并且可以将测试命令优先化。

[0101] 注意:以上示例假设患者处于非危急状况。

[0102] - 然后,在步骤118中报告由多个实验室仪器10中的至少一个执行的生物样品的至少一个分析步骤获得的测试结果。根据本文公开的各种实施例,通过到医院信息系统HIS50的数据传送,经由控制单元20的用户界面,通过到可由医疗从业者的移动设备应用程序访问的云服务器的数据传送,通过打印输出或其他合适的手段来报告结果。

[0103] 根据本文公开的其他实施例,控制分析实验室1的多个实验室仪器10以根据相应的处理工作流程处理每个生物样品的步骤116包括控制用于加载生物样品(诸如按其(一个或多个)处理优先权的命令加载生物样品,以便避免具有较低处理优先权的样品使实验室仪器10过载并且具有较高优先权的样品被卡住)的仪器的步骤。

[0104] 在分析实验室1的实施例中,其中将包含生物样品的样品管加载到用于批量加载样品的仪器中,用于加载样品的仪器配置成基于相应测试命令的处理优先权对样品管进行分类。

[0105] 在分析实验室1的另一实施例中,其中将包含生物样品的样品管加载到用于将样品加载在样品架中的仪器中,用于加载样品的仪器被配置成基于相应测试命令的处理优先权从样品架单独加载(拾取)样品管。

[0106] Such as Figures 1 to 7 的流程图所图示,根据本文公开的实施例,每次一个或多个测试命令的处理优先权被改变(即提高或降低)时,重新确定用于处理每个生物样品的处理工作流程以及对应于每个测试命令的分析结果的预测可用性。换句话说,该方法在迭代中执行,直到确定最佳解决方案。在此上下文中,迭代指的是一系列步骤:104到110。根据本文公开的实施例,定义最大迭代次数,之后控制单元20控制分析实验室1的多个实验室仪器10以根据相应的处理工作流程处理每个生物样品,即使员工工作量不精确匹配员工工作量阈值。

[0107] figure 2 示出了说明所公开方法的实施例的流程图,其中基于确定的紧...

Abstract

A computer implemented method for operating an analytical laboratory for processing biological samples, wherein processing priority of test orders related to the biological samples is determined basedon an objectively determined urgency of the analytical test results and on staff workload at a forecast time of availability of the analytical test result(s).

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to a computer-implemented method for operating an analytical laboratory to process biological samples. The present application also relates to an analytical laboratory for processing biological samples and a computer program product comprising instructions which, when executed by a computer system, control the analytical laboratory to perform the method. Background technique [0002] In vitro analytical diagnostic tests have a significant impact on clinical decision-making, providing physicians with critical information. Statistics show that a significant portion of all physician decision-making relies on in vitro diagnostic tests. [0003] In analytical laboratories, especially clinical laboratories, a large number of analyzes of samples are performed by analytical systems in order to determine the physiological state of a patient. The type of analytical test to be performed on the biological sample is usually designa...
