Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of data processing technology, and in particular to an experimental information management method and related system. Background Technology

[0002] In hospitals, the medical system generally includes a Hospital Information System (HIS), a Laboratory Information Management System (LIS), and an instrument system. The HIS is used to manage patient information for all departments in the hospital. The LIS is a laboratory information management system specifically designed for the hospital's laboratory department. It can network laboratory instruments with computers to realize complex operations such as patient sample entry, experimental data storage and retrieval, report review, printing and distribution, and experimental data statistical analysis. The instrument system is mainly used to perform tests on samples and upload the test results to the LIS. In practical applications, the above three systems interact to achieve intelligent, automated, and standardized sample data management.

[0003] In existing technology, after receiving patient samples from different services, the hospital laboratory will group the samples according to their respective services. Then, the operators of each group will manually enter the sample information into the LIS system. Alternatively, the sample recipients can manually enter the sample information into the LIS system first, and then distribute the samples from different services to the respective service groups for testing. The process of manually entering the sample information into the LIS system involves manually scanning each sample one by one in front of a barcode scanner connected to the LIS system. Once the barcode scanner successfully scans the sample and emits a confirmation sound, the operator can proceed to enter the information for the next sample.

[0004] In the above process, for each sample, the operator needs to manually scan the sample identifier in order to enter the sample information into the LIS system. For departments with a large or large number of samples, the operator's workload is very large. Due to the heavy workload, the operator's overall work efficiency in the department is reduced. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This invention provides a method for managing experimental information. When the Laboratory Information System (LIS) receives sample test item query information from the instrument system, it queries the Hospital Information System (HIS) for corresponding sample test item information using the sample identifier in the query information. Upon receiving the sample test item information, the LIS system locally saves the sample identifier and the corresponding test item information. This is equivalent to the LIS system obtaining the sample identifier from the instrument system, thus reducing the step of manually entering the sample identifier into the LIS using a barcode scanner, improving the efficiency of sample identifier entry, and reducing the workload of manual labor.

[0160] This invention provides a laboratory information management method to reduce the workload of manually entering sample identifiers into the Laboratory Information Management System (LIS) using a barcode scanner, thereby improving the efficiency of sample identifier entry.

[0161] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0162] The terms "first," "second," "third," "fourth," etc., used in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this invention are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.

[0163] To facilitate understanding, the various application systems in this application will be introduced below:

[0164] Figure 1 The diagram below illustrates the structure of the medical system in this application. In a hospital, the medical system 10 generally includes a hospital information system 101 (HIS), a laboratory information management system 102 (LIS), and an instrument system 103. The hospital information system HIS 101 is used to manage patient information for all departments in the hospital. The laboratory information management system LIS 102 is a laboratory information management system specifically designed for the hospital's laboratory department. It can network laboratory instruments with computers to realize complex operations such as patient sample entry, experimental data storage and retrieval, report review, printing and distribution, and experimental data statistical analysis. The instrument system 103 is mainly used to perform tests on samples and upload the test results to the laboratory information management system LIS. In practical applications, the above three systems interact to achieve intelligent, automated, and standardized sample data management.

[0165] This application addresses the problem in existing technologies where hospital laboratory departments need to manually enter sample information into the Laboratory Information Management System (LIS) one by one after receiving patient samples from different services. This results in a large workload and low input efficiency. The application proposes a laboratory information management method for use in the LIS system. This method automatically retrieves sample identifiers from the instrument system, thereby improving the efficiency of sample identifier entry and reducing the workload of manually entering sample identifiers into the LIS system using barcode scanners.

[0166] The following describes the experimental information management method in this application from the LIS system side. Please refer to [link / reference needed] for details. Figure 2 One embodiment of the laboratory information management method in this application includes:

[0167] 201. When a sample identifier is entered into the instrument system, the instrument system sends sample test query information, which includes at least the sample identifier, in order to obtain the corresponding sample test item information.

[0168] Unlike existing technologies that require manual input of each sample identifier into the LIS system, resulting in a large workload and low input efficiency, the LIS system in this application automatically obtains the sample identifier from the instrument system during the interaction process, thereby improving the input efficiency of the sample identifier.

[0169] Specifically, before a sample is tested in the instrument system, the sample identifier needs to be entered through the sample identifier reader, and the corresponding test item information is obtained from the LIS system based on the sample identifier. After the instrument system enters the sample identifier, the LIS system receives the sample test query information sent by the instrument system. The sample test query information includes at least the sample identifier, which is used to obtain the corresponding sample test item information.

[0170] 202. Based on the sample identifier, query the Hospital Information System (HIS);

[0171] When the LIS system receives the sample test query information sent by the instrument system, it queries the Hospital Information System (HIS) based on the sample identifier in the query information to obtain the sample test item information corresponding to the sample identifier from the HIS.

[0172] As an optional implementation, when the LIS system locally stores sample test item information corresponding to the sample identifier, it directly sends the sample test item information to the instrument system, so that the instrument system can perform testing and management on the sample.

[0173] It should be noted that when the LIS system receives a sample identifier from the instrument system for the first time, it needs to retrieve the corresponding sample test item information from the HIS system based on the sample identifier. Therefore, the scenario where the LIS system stores the sample test item information corresponding to the sample identifier locally is generally suitable for secondary queries by the instrument system.

[0174] 203. When the sample test item information is obtained from the HIS, the sample identifier and the corresponding sample test item information are locally saved, and the sample test item information is sent to the instrument system, so that the instrument system can perform testing and management on the sample.

[0175] When the LIS system obtains the sample test item information corresponding to the sample identifier from the HIS system, it saves the sample identifier and the corresponding sample test item information locally and sends the sample test item information to the instrument system, enabling the instrument system to perform testing and management on the sample.

[0176] In this embodiment, when the Laboratory Information Management System (LIS) obtains sample test item information, it saves the sample identifier and the corresponding test item information locally. This is equivalent to obtaining the sample identifier information from the instrument system, thereby reducing the step of manually entering sample information into the LIS through a barcode scanner, reducing the workload of manual labor, and improving the efficiency of sample information entry.

[0177] based on Figure 2 In the aforementioned embodiment, since the sample identifiers obtained by the instrument system are generally machine identification codes such as QR codes and barcodes, the sample identifiers obtained by the LIS system from the instrument system are also machine identification codes.

[0178] On the one hand, due to the difficulty for users to recognize machine identification codes, and on the other hand, because the LIS system obtains sample identifiers from the instrument system, it cannot allow users to temporarily change test information when entering sample identifiers into the LIS system. Therefore, the LIS system in this application can also perform the following steps, for details please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 3 Another embodiment of the experimental information management method in this application includes:

[0179] 301. Receive the sample identifier entered through the LIS system;

[0180] In order to ensure that each sample has a machine identification code and a human-readable sample identifier, and to address the issue of temporarily changing test item information when manually entering sample identifiers into the LIS system, the LIS system can also call a sample identifier reader to receive the input sample identifier and execute step 302 based on the sample identifier.

[0181] 302. Based on the sample identifier, receive a manual number for the sample or automatically number the sample;

[0182] In order to give the samples a human-readable identification code, the LIS system receives the sample identification code entered through the sample identification reader, and then receives the manual numbering of the sample, or automatically assigns a number to the sample based on the sample identification code.

[0183] It should be noted that the numbering in this embodiment is an identification code that is easy for humans to identify, such as Arabic numerals 1, 2, 3, or English letters A, B, C, etc. The numbering here only needs to be easy for humans to identify, and there are no specific restrictions on the form of the numbering.

[0184] 303. Send the sample test item information and sample number to the instrument system;

[0185] Once the LIS system receives the sample identifier number, it can send the sample test item information along with the sample number to the instrument system when sending the sample test item information. This allows the instrument system to associate and store the test result with at least one of the sample identifier and sample number when sending the sample test result to the LIS system.

[0186] 304. If a manual input instruction to change the test item is received, the changed test item information is sent to the instrument system.

[0187] In addition, when receiving the entered sample identifier, the LIS system can also enable temporary manual changes to the test item information. Specifically, when the LIS system receives the sample identifier, it determines whether it has received a manual instruction to change the test item for that sample identifier. If it receives the manual instruction to change the test item, it also sends the changed test item information to the instrument system, so that the instrument system can perform a complete test on the sample based on the original test item information and the changed test item information.

[0188] It should be noted that there is no strict order restriction between step 304 and steps 302 and 303. Step 304 can be executed before or after step 302.

[0189] In this embodiment, the LIS system can not only receive sample identifiers entered through the sample identifier reader, but also perform numbering on the sample identifiers. When performing numbering, it can also receive manually input instructions to change test items. This makes the sample not only have a number that is easy for humans to identify, but also realizes the temporary change of sample test item information on the LIS system side. On the one hand, it improves the user experience in sample identifier identification, and on the other hand, it improves the flexibility of test item information changes.

[0190] based on Figure 3 In the described embodiment, to facilitate users in obtaining the location information of the sample within the instrument system, the LIS system can also perform the following steps, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 4 Another embodiment of the experimental information management method in this application includes:

[0191] 401. Receive the associated location information of the sample sent by the instrument system, the associated location information including the location information of the sample and at least one of the sample identifier and the sample number, for use in finding the location information of the sample by means of at least one of the sample identifier and the sample number;

[0192] To facilitate users' ability to query sample location information within the instrument system using the LIS system, the instrument system can send the sample's associated location information to the LIS system. This allows users to locate the sample's location using at least one of the sample identifier and sample number. The associated location information includes the sample's location information and at least one of the sample identifier and sample number. Specifically, the associated location information can be the association between the sample's location information and the sample identifier, the sample's location information and the sample number, or the sample's location information and both the sample identifier and the sample number. No specific restrictions are imposed here.

[0193] As an optional embodiment, after the LIS system assigns a number to the sample identifier locally, it may not send the sample number to the instrument system. Instead, when the instrument system reports the associated location information of the sample, this associated location information is the association between the sample's location information and the sample identifier. When the LIS system receives this associated location information, it then associates the associated location information with the sample number, thereby allowing the user to obtain the sample's location information in the instrument system through the sample identifier or sample number in the LIS system.

[0194] Specifically, the sample's position information in the instrument system is related to the sample carrier of the instrument system. When the sample carrier in the instrument system is a sample tray, the sample's position information is the position information of the sample tray in the instrument system and the sample's position information in the sample tray. When the sample carrier in the instrument system is a sample rack, the sample's position information is the position information of the sample rack in the instrument system and the sample's position information in the sample rack.

[0195] The following is combined Figure 16 The instrument system shown describes the position information of the sample within the instrument system when the sample carrier is a sample disk:

[0196] For ease of explanation, let's first discuss... Figure 16 The composition and structure of the instrument system are described. As an optional embodiment, the instrument system in this embodiment includes a sample tray 1601, a reagent dispensing mechanism 1602, a mixing mechanism 1603, a reaction component 1604, and a photometric component 1605, etc.

[0197] The sample tray 1601 includes multiple sample positions for placing sample tubes, and the sample tray can be rotated to the corresponding positions, such as the positions for the sample dispensing mechanism 1602 to pick up the samples, by rotating its tray structure.

[0198] The reagent dispensing mechanism 1602 is used to aspirate reagents and dispense them into a reaction cup to which the reagents are to be added. In one embodiment, the reagent dispensing mechanism 1602 may include a reagent needle, which is driven by a two-dimensional or three-dimensional mechanism to move in two-dimensional or three-dimensional space, thereby moving the reagent needle to aspirate the reagents carried by the sample tray, and to move to the reaction cup to which the reagents are to be added, and dispense the reagents into the reaction cup.

[0199] The mixing mechanism 1603 is used to mix the reaction liquid in the reaction vessel that needs to be mixed. There can be one or more mixing mechanisms 1603.

[0200] The reaction component 1604 has at least one placement position for placing a reaction cup and incubating the reaction liquid in the reaction cup. For example, the reaction component 1604 can be a reaction disk, which is arranged in a disk-shaped structure and has one or more placement positions for placing reaction cups. The reaction disk can rotate and drive the reaction cups in its placement positions to rotate, for distributing the reaction cups and incubating the reaction liquid in the reaction cups within the reaction disk.

[0201] The photometric component 1605 is used to perform photometric measurements on the incubated reaction solution to obtain the sample's reaction data. For example, the photometric component 1605 detects the luminescence intensity of the reaction solution to be tested and calculates the concentration of the analyte in the sample through a calibration curve.

[0202] exist Figure 16In the instrument system shown, the position information of the sample is the position information of the sample tray 1601 in the instrument system, and the position information of the sample in the sample tray 1601.

[0203] The following is combined Figure 17 and Figure 18 The instrument system shown describes the position information of the sample within the instrument system when the sample carrier is a sample holder:

[0204] Figure 17 The instrument system shown is a three-dimensional structural diagram when the number of analyzers N is 2. 1701 and 1702 are the first and second analyzers, respectively; 1703 and 1704 are the loading units for loading the sample racks to be tested; 1705 and 1706 are the retrieval units for placing the sample racks that have already been aspirated. Other components of the instrument system are not shown.

[0205] It should be noted that when the number of analyzers is one, that is, when the instrument system contains only the first analyzer 1701 or the second analyzer 1702, then... Figure 17 It is a stand-alone instrument system.

[0206] exist Figure 17 In the instrument system described above, the sample holder is in Figure 17 The location information in the instrument system may be in the recovery unit 1705 or 1706, while the location information of the sample in the sample rack can be obtained through the identification of each well on the sample rack. Each well on the sample rack has its own unique identification code.

[0207] Furthermore, when the instrument system also includes pre- and post-processing modules, Figure 18 Another schematic diagram of the instrument system is given. Figure 18 This is a pipelined instrument system, including an input module 1801, a preprocessing module, one or more analysis modules 1806, a postprocessing module, and a track. The track is used to connect the various modules, such as the input module 10, the preprocessing module, one or more analysis modules 1806, and the postprocessing module. It should be noted that the postprocessing module is not essential in some pipelined systems and is optional.

[0208] The input module 1801 is used to receive samples placed by the user. In a automated instrument system, the input module 1801 is generally the area where the user places the samples. When the automated instrument system is working, the input module 1801 can automatically scan and sort the samples placed therein for processing by the next module, such as the pre-processing module.

[0209] The pretreatment module is used to preprocess the samples. In one embodiment, the pretreatment module may include one or more of the following: centrifugation module 1802, serum detection module 1803, decapping module 1804, and dispensing module 1805. The centrifugation module is used to centrifuge the sample to be centrifuged, and there may be one or more centrifugation modules. The serum detection module is used to detect whether the serum volume of the sample is sufficient and / or whether the serum quality of the sample is qualified, to determine whether the centrifuged sample can be used for subsequent assays. The decapping module is used to remove the caps from the samples after centrifugation—understandably, in this document, capping, decapping, and decapping of samples refer to capping, decapping, and decapping of sample tubes containing samples; generally, samples need to be decapped after centrifugation for subsequent dispensing or analysis modules to aliquot or aspirate. The dispensing module is used to aliquot the samples, for example, dividing one sample into multiple samples for delivery to different analysis modules 1806 for assays.

[0210] Analysis module 1806 is used to test samples that have undergone centrifugation and decapping. To improve efficiency and throughput, automated systems typically have multiple analysis modules 1806, such as biochemical analysis modules, immunoassay modules, and coagulation analysis modules. These analysis modules 1806 can be of the same type (i.e., used to measure the same parameters) or different types (i.e., used to measure different parameters), which can be configured according to the needs of the user and department.

[0211] The post-processing module is used to perform post-processing on the samples. In one embodiment, the post-processing module includes one or more of a film / capping module 1807, a cold storage module 1808, and an output module 1809. The film / capping module is used to film or cap the samples; the cold storage module is used to store the samples; and the output module is used to output the samples.

[0212] exist Figure 18 In the instrument system described above, after testing, the sample storage location may be either the output module or the storage module; that is, the sample is stored in a specific slot of a sample holder within either the output module or the storage module. The sample holder is located in... Figure 18 The location information in the instrument system may be the refrigerated storage module 1808 or the output module 1809. Specifically, when the refrigerated storage module 1808 is a refrigerator, the location information of the sample rack in the refrigerated storage module 1808 may be inside the refrigerator or in a buffer area near the refrigerator, etc. The location information of the sample in the sample rack can be obtained through the identification of each hole on the sample rack. Each hole on the sample rack has its own unique identification code.

[0213] It should be noted that when the sample holder is a sample holder, since the sample holder is a single-well sample holder, the position information of the sample in the sample holder is unique. The position information of the sample holder in the instrument system is as described above, and will not be repeated here.

[0214] In this embodiment of the application, the process of obtaining the location information of the sample in the instrument system on the LIS system side is described in detail, thereby realizing the convenience of obtaining the sample location information.

[0215] based on Figure 3 The embodiments described herein not only enable changes to sample test item information on the LIS system side, but also on the instrument system side. Please refer to the following for details. Figure 5 Another embodiment of the experimental information management method in this application includes:

[0216] 501. When a manual change instruction for the test item is received from the instrument system, determine whether the changed test item can be executed in the instrument system. If yes, proceed to step 502; otherwise, proceed to step 503.

[0217] When a sample is tested in the instrument system, if the instrument system sends a manual change instruction to the LIS system, the LIS system determines whether the changed test item can be executed in the instrument system. If it can be executed, step 502 is executed; if it cannot be executed, step 503 is executed.

[0218] 502. Receive the modified test item information sent by the instrument system, and send the modified test item information back to the instrument system;

[0219] If the modified test items can be executed in the instrument system, the LIS system receives the modified test item information sent by the instrument system and sends the modified test item information back to the instrument system, so that the instrument system can perform a complete test on the sample based on the original sample test item information and the modified test item information.

[0220] For details on how the LIS system determines whether a modified test item can be executed by the instrument system, please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figure 6 The embodiments described herein will not be repeated here.

[0221] 503. Perform other procedures.

[0222] If the modified test item cannot be executed in the instrument system, the LIS system can refuse to accept the manual instruction to modify the test item, or it can send a prompt message to the instrument system that the test item cannot be executed. There are no specific restrictions on the specific execution instructions of the LIS system.

[0223] based on Figure 5 The following describes in detail the LIS system's process for determining whether a modified test item can be executed, as described in the embodiment. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 6 , Figure 6 for Figure 5 Detailed steps of step 502 in the embodiment:

[0224] 601. Obtain the test items that the instrument system can perform;

[0225] When the LIS system receives an instruction from the instrument system to change the test items, the LIS system obtains the test items that the instrument system can execute, and then executes step 602 based on the changed test items and the test items that the instrument system can execute.

[0226] Specifically, the LIS system can acquire test items that the instrument system can execute. This can be done by the LIS system actively acquiring test items from the instrument system or by the LIS system passively receiving test items sent by the instrument system. There are no specific restrictions on the "acquisition" action itself.

[0227] 602. Determine whether the modified test item belongs to the executable test item. If yes, proceed to step 603; otherwise, proceed to step 604.

[0228] After the LIS system obtains the test items that the instrument system can execute, it determines whether the modified test item belongs to the test items that the instrument system can execute. If yes, it executes step 603; otherwise, it executes step 604.

[0229] 603. The modified test item can be executed;

[0230] If the modified test item belongs to the test items that the instrument system can execute, it means that the modified test item can be executed by the instrument system.

[0231] If the instrument system can perform four test items, A, B, C, and D, and the changed test item is E, then E cannot be performed by the instrument system. If the changed test item is D, then D can be performed by the instrument system.

[0232] 604. The modified test item cannot be executed.

[0233] If the modified test item does not belong to the test items that the instrument system can execute, it means that the modified test item cannot be executed by the instrument system.

[0234] As another optional implementation, the LIS system can also determine whether the modified test item can be executed through the following process:

[0235] If the LIS system obtains the test items that have already been executed for the sample, it then determines whether the modified test items can be executed after the already executed test items based on the order relationship between the modified test items and the already executed test items. If yes, it means that the modified test items can be executed by the instrument system; otherwise, it means that the modified test items cannot be executed by the instrument system.

[0236] Specifically, assuming the LIS system receives test items B and C that have already been executed in the sample, and receives the modified test item D, the LIS system can determine whether test item D can be executed after test item C based on the order relationship between test items B, C, and D. If so, the modified test item can be executed; otherwise, the modified test item cannot be executed.

[0237] As for the order relationship between test items B, C, and D, it can be pre-stored locally by the LIS system or obtained by the LIS system from the instrument system or HIS system; no specific restrictions are imposed here.

[0238] This embodiment describes in detail the LIS system's determination process for whether the modified test item can be executed, thereby improving the feasibility of this application's embodiment.

[0239] The experimental information management method in this application has been described above from the perspective of the LIS system. To facilitate users in obtaining the location information of samples within the instrument system through the LIS system, the experimental information management method in this application will now be described from the perspective of the instrument system. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 7 Another embodiment of the experimental information management method in this application includes:

[0240] 701. Receive the entered sample identifier;

[0241] When a sample needs to be tested in an instrument system, it is generally necessary to first enter the sample identifier through a sample identifier reader so that the instrument system can obtain the test item information of the sample based on the sample identifier and report the test results to the LIS system based on the sample identifier, or report the location information of the sample in the instrument system to the LIS system.

[0242] 702. Obtain the location information of the sample in the instrument system;

[0243] When the instrument system reports the location information of the sample in the instrument system to the LIS system, it needs to obtain the location information of the sample in the instrument system first.

[0244] Specifically, the sample's position information in the instrument system is related to the sample's carrier in the instrument system. When the sample carrier in the instrument system is a sample tray, the sample's position information is the position information of the sample tray in the instrument system and the sample's position information within the sample tray. When the sample carrier in the instrument system is a sample rack, the sample's position information is the position information of the sample rack in the instrument system and the sample's position information within the sample rack.

[0245] For specific sample location information within the instrument system, please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figure 4 As described in the examples, they will not be repeated here.

[0246] 703. Associate and store the location information with the sample identifier;

[0247] When the instrument system obtains the location information of the sample within the instrument system, it associates and stores the location information with the sample identifier, and then sends the associated and stored location information to the LIS system.

[0248] 704. Send the associated and stored location information to the Laboratory Information Management System (LIS), so that the location information of the sample can be obtained through the sample identifier in the LIS system.

[0249] Once the instrument system sends the associated and stored location information to the Laboratory Information Management System (LIS), the user can retrieve the sample's location information within the instrument system from the LIS system based on the sample identifier.

[0250] In this embodiment, after the instrument system obtains the sample identifier and the sample's location information in the instrument system, it associates and stores the location information with the sample identifier and sends the associated and stored location information to the LIS system. This allows the user to obtain the sample's location information in the instrument system from the LIS system through the sample identifier, thereby improving the convenience for the user to obtain the sample location information.

[0251] based on Figure 7 In the described embodiment, prior to step 702, the instrument system needs to perform the following steps to obtain the test item information of the sample. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation] for details. Figure 8 Another embodiment of the experimental information management method in this application includes:

[0252] 801. Based on the sample identifier, send sample test query information to the Laboratory Information Management System (LIS);

[0253] After the instrument system receives the sample identifier, before obtaining the sample's location information within the instrument system, it needs to send sample test query information to the Laboratory Information Management System (LIS) based on the sample identifier in order to obtain the sample's test item information.

[0254] 802. Receive sample test item information sent by the LIS system;

[0255] Once the instrument system sends sample test query information to the LIS system, it can receive the sample test item information sent by the LIS system.

[0256] It should be noted that the sample test item information can be obtained by the LIS system from the Hospital Information System (HIS) based on the sample identifier, or it can be obtained by the LIS system from its local query based on the sample identifier.

[0257] Generally, when the LIS system receives a sample test query from the instrument system for the first time, it will query the HIS system to obtain the corresponding sample test item information. When the LIS system receives a second query from the instrument system, that is, when the LIS system has already stored the sample test item information locally, it will query the local system to obtain the corresponding sample test item information.

[0258] 803. After the LIS system assigns a sample number, receive the sample number sent by the LIS system;

[0259] In addition, corresponding to Figure 3 In step 302 of the embodiment, after the LIS system assigns a number to the sample, the instrument system will also receive the sample number sent by the LIS system when receiving the sample test item information.

[0260] Furthermore, after the instrument system receives the sample number sent by the LIS system, it can associate the sample's location information with at least one of the sample identifier and sample number, and send the associated location information to the LIS system. This allows the user to query the sample's location information in the instrument system using at least one of the sample identifier or sample number in the LIS system.

[0261] 804. When the LIS system receives manually entered modified test items, it receives the modified test item information sent by the LIS system.

[0262] Corresponding to Figure 3In step 304 of the embodiment, when the LIS system receives the manually input modified test item information, the instrument system will also receive the modified test item information sent by the LIS system when receiving the sample test item information, so as to perform a complete test on the sample based on the original sample test item information and the modified test item information.

[0263] In this embodiment, the process by which the instrument system obtains sample test item information, sample number, and modified sample test item information from the LIS system is described in detail, which improves the feasibility of this embodiment.

[0264] based on Figure 7 or Figure 8 In the described embodiment, when the instrument system receives the entered sample identifier through the sample identifier reader, it can also perform the following steps to change the sample test item information on the instrument system side. For details, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 9 Another embodiment of the experimental information management method in this application includes:

[0265] 901. Send a manual change instruction for the test item to the LIS system, so that the LIS system can determine the feasibility of executing the changed test item, and receive the changed test item information sent by the LIS system when the changed test item can be executed.

[0266] After the instrument system obtains the sample identification code, it can also send a manual change instruction to the LIS system. This allows the LIS system to determine the feasibility of executing the changed test item. When the changed test item can be executed, the instrument system receives the changed test item information sent by the LIS system, which is then used to perform a complete test on the sample based on the original sample test item information and the changed test item information.

[0267] Specifically, the process by which the LIS system assesses the feasibility of executing a changed test item can be described as follows:

[0268] The instrument system sends the test items it can execute to the LIS system, enabling the LIS system to determine the feasibility of executing the changed test item information based on the hierarchical relationship between the changed test items and the test items that the instrument system can execute.

[0269] For example, suppose the instrument system can perform four test items: A, B, C, and D. If the changed test item is E, then E cannot be performed by the instrument system. If the changed test item is D, then D can be performed by the instrument system.

[0270] As an optional implementation, the process of the LIS system to determine the feasibility of executing the changed test items can also be described as follows:

[0271] If the instrument system sends samples of test items that have already been executed in the instrument system to the LIS system, the LIS system can determine whether the modified test item can be executed after the already executed test item based on the order relationship between the modified test item and the already executed test item. If yes, it means that the modified test item can be executed by the instrument system; if no, it means that the modified test item cannot be executed by the instrument system.

[0272] Specifically, assuming the instrument system sends samples to the LIS system that have already undergone test items B and C, and the LIS system receives the modified test item D, the LIS system can determine whether test item D can be executed after test item C based on the order of test items B, C, and D. If so, the modified test item can be executed; otherwise, the modified test item cannot be executed.

[0273] As for the order relationship between test items B, C, and D, it can be pre-stored locally by the LIS system or obtained by the LIS system from the instrument system or HIS system; no specific restrictions are imposed here.

[0274] In this embodiment, the process of changing test item instructions from the instrument system side is described in detail, thereby realizing the change of test item instructions on the instrument system side and improving the flexibility of changing test item instructions.

[0275] The experimental information management method in this application embodiment has been described in detail above from the perspective of the instrument system. The following section will describe the experimental information management method in this application embodiment from the perspective of the interaction between the LIS system and the instrument system. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 10 Another embodiment of the experimental information management method in this application includes:

[0276] 1001. The instrument system receives and inputs the sample identifier;

[0277] When a sample needs to be tested in an instrument system, it is generally necessary to first enter the sample identifier through a sample identifier reader so that the instrument system can obtain the test item information of the sample based on the sample identifier.

[0278] 1002. The instrument system sends sample test query information to the LIS system based on the sample identifier;

[0279] Once the instrument system receives the sample identifier, it sends sample test query information to the Laboratory Information Management System (LIS) based on the sample identifier to obtain the sample's test item information.

[0280] 1003. The LIS system queries the Hospital Information System (HIS) based on the sample identifier;

[0281] When the LIS system receives the sample test query information sent by the instrument system, it queries the Hospital Information System (HIS) based on the sample identifier in the query information to obtain the sample test item information corresponding to the sample identifier from the HIS.

[0282] As an optional embodiment, when the LIS system locally stores sample test item information corresponding to the sample identifier, it directly sends the sample test item information to the instrument system.

[0283] It should be noted that, based on actual needs, the LIS system does not store the test item information of the sample in advance. Therefore, when the LIS system receives the sample identifier sent by the instrument system for the first time, it needs to obtain the corresponding sample test item information from the HIS system based on the sample identifier. Therefore, the scenario where the LIS system stores the sample test item information corresponding to the sample identifier locally is generally suitable for the instrument system to query the sample test item information on a secondary basis.

[0284] 1004. When the LIS system obtains sample test item information from the HIS system, it performs local storage of the sample identifier and the corresponding sample test item information.

[0285] When the LIS system obtains the sample test item information corresponding to the sample identifier from the HIS system, it saves the sample identifier and the corresponding sample test item information locally, and then executes step 1005.

[0286] Because the LIS system obtains the sample identifier from the instrument system and retrieves the corresponding sample test item information from the HIS system based on the sample identifier, it is equivalent to the LIS system obtaining the sample identifier from the instrument system. This reduces the step of manually entering the sample identifier into the Laboratory Information Management System (LIS) through a barcode scanner, improves the efficiency of sample identifier entry, and reduces the workload of manual labor.

[0287] 1005. The LIS system sends the sample test item information to the instrument system;

[0288] Once the LIS system obtains the sample test item information, it sends the sample test item information to the instrument system, causing the instrument system to execute step 1006.

[0289] 1006. The instrument system performs tests and manages the samples.

[0290] Once the instrument system receives the test item information for the sample, it performs the corresponding tests and manages the sample according to the test item information.

[0291] In this embodiment, the process of the LIS system obtaining sample identifiers from the instrument system is described in detail from an interactive perspective. Since the LIS system obtains sample identifiers from the instrument system and retrieves the sample test item information corresponding to the sample identifiers from the HIS system based on the sample identifiers, it is equivalent to the LIS system obtaining sample identifiers from the instrument system. This reduces the step of manually entering sample identifiers into the Laboratory Information Management System (LIS) through a barcode scanner, improves the efficiency of sample identifier entry, and reduces the workload of manual labor.

[0292] based on Figure 10 The described embodiments, because Figure 10 Sample identification in the system is typically a machine-readable code such as a barcode or QR code. To facilitate user identification of sample identification, the LIS system can also perform the following steps; please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 11 Another embodiment of the experimental information management method in this application includes:

[0293] 1101. The LIS system receives the entered sample identifier;

[0294] In order to ensure that each sample has a human-readable sample identifier in addition to a machine identification code, the LIS system can also call the sample identifier reader to receive the input sample identifier and execute step 1102 based on the sample identifier.

[0295] 1102. The LIS system receives manual or automatic numbering of samples based on sample identifiers.

[0296] In order to give the samples a human-readable identification code, the LIS system, after receiving the sample identification entered through the sample identification reader, further receives the manual numbering of the sample, or automatically numbers the sample according to the sample identification code.

[0297] It should be noted that the numbering in this embodiment is an identification code that is easy for humans to identify, such as Arabic numerals 1, 2, 3, or English letters A, B, C, etc. The numbering here only needs to be easy for humans to identify, and there are no specific restrictions on the form of the numbering.

[0298] 1103. The LIS system sends the sample number to the instrument system;

[0299] Once the LIS system receives the sample identifier number, it further sends the sample number to the instrument system. This allows the instrument system to associate and store the test results with at least one of the sample identifier and sample number when sending the test results to the LIS system. This makes it easier for users to find the test results in the LIS system by using either the sample identifier or the sample number, thereby improving the convenience for users to obtain test results.

[0300] 1104. The instrument system acquires the location information of the sample within the instrument system and associates and stores the location information with at least one of the sample identifier and sample number;

[0301] To facilitate users in finding the location information of a sample in the LIS system by using the sample identifier or sample number, the instrument system can further associate and store the location information of the sample in the instrument system with at least one of the sample identifier and sample number, and then execute step 1105.

[0302] Specifically, the sample's position information in the instrument system is related to the sample's carrier in the instrument system. When the sample carrier in the instrument system is a sample tray, the sample's position information is the position information of the sample tray in the instrument system and the sample's position information within the sample tray. When the sample carrier in the instrument system is a sample rack, the sample's position information is the position information of the sample rack in the instrument system and the sample's position information within the sample rack.

[0303] For specific sample location information within the instrument system, please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figure 4 As described in the examples, they will not be repeated here.

[0304] 1105. The instrument system sends the associated and stored location information to the LIS system;

[0305] After the instrument system acquires the associated location information of the sample within the instrument system, it sends the associated and stored location information to the LIS system, so that users can find the location information of the sample within the instrument system through the sample identifier or sample number in the LIS system.

[0306] 1106. When the LIS system receives a manually input instruction to change the test item, the LIS system will send the changed test item information to the instrument system.

[0307] Furthermore, when the LIS system receives the entered sample identifier, if the LIS system receives a manually entered instruction to change the test items for the sample, it will send the changed test item information to the instrument system, so that the instrument system can perform a complete test on the sample based on the original sample test item information and the changed test item information.

[0308] In this embodiment, the process of obtaining the sample number, obtaining the sample's location information in the instrument system, and changing the test item information on the LIS system side are described in detail, thereby improving the convenience of sample identification, obtaining sample location information, and changing test item information on the LIS system side.

[0309] based on Figure 10 In the embodiments described above, this application allows for changes to test information not only on the LIS system side but also on the instrument system side. Please refer to the details below. Figure 12 Another embodiment of the experimental information management method in this application includes:

[0310] 1201. The instrument system receives manual instructions to change test items;

[0311] In this embodiment of the application, in addition to inputting manual change test item instructions on the LIS system side, manual change test item instructions can also be input on the instrument system side. When the instrument system receives the manually input change test item instructions, it further executes step 1202.

[0312] 1202. The instrument system sends the manual change instruction for the test item to the LIS system;

[0313] When the instrument system receives a manual change instruction for the test item, it sends the manual change instruction to the LIS system, causing the LIS system to execute step 1203.

[0314] 1203. The LIS system determines whether the modified test item can be executed in the instrument system. If yes, proceed to step 1204; otherwise, proceed to step 1205.

[0315] When the LIS system receives a manual change instruction for the test item from the instrument system, the LIS system determines whether the changed test item can be executed in the instrument system. If yes, it executes step 1204; otherwise, it executes step 1205.

[0316] 1204. The LIS system will send the revised test items to the instrument system;

[0317] When the modified test items can be executed in the instrument system, the LIS system sends the modified test items to the instrument system, so that the instrument system can perform a complete test on the sample based on the received test item information and the modified test item information.

[0318] 1205. The LIS system executes other processes.

[0319] When the modified test item cannot be executed in the instrument system, the LIS system can directly reject the modified test item instruction sent by the instrument system, and can also send a prompt message to the instrument system that the modified test item instruction cannot be executed. There are no specific restrictions on the content of the instruction executed by the LIS system here.

[0320] In this embodiment, the process of changing test item information from the instrument system side is described in detail, which improves the flexibility of changing test item information in this embodiment.

[0321] based on Figure 12 The following describes in detail the process by which the LIS system determines the executability of modified test items in the described embodiment. Please refer to [link / reference needed] for details. Figure 13 Another embodiment of the laboratory information management method in this application includes:

[0322] 1301. The instrument system sends the test items it can execute to the LIS system;

[0323] When the LIS system receives an instruction to change the test items, the LIS system can proactively obtain the test items that the instrument system can execute, or receive the test items that it can execute sent by the instrument system.

[0324] 1302. The LIS system determines whether the modified test item belongs to the test items that the instrument system can execute;

[0325] The LIS system determines whether the changed test item belongs to the executable test items based on the changed test items and the test items that the instrument system can execute. If yes, it executes step 1303; otherwise, it executes step 1304.

[0326] 1303. The modified test items can be executed by the instrument system;

[0327] When the LIS system determines that the modified test item belongs to the test items that the instrument system can execute, it means that the modified test item can be executed by the instrument system.

[0328] 1304. The modified test items cannot be executed by the instrument system.

[0329] If the LIS system determines that the modified test item is not one of the test items that the instrument system can execute, it means that the modified test item cannot be executed by the instrument system.

[0330] Specifically, for example: Suppose that the instrument system can perform four test items, A, B, C and D. If the changed test item is E, then E cannot be performed by the instrument system. If the changed test item is D, then D can be performed by the instrument system.

[0331] This application describes in detail the LIS system's process for determining the executability of modified test items, thereby improving the executability of this application's embodiments.
