Abstract

Aim Haemolysis has a major impact on patient safety as the need for a replacement specimen increases the risk of injury and infection, delays test results and extends the duration of hospital stays. Consistency of haemolysis detection and reporting can facilitate the generation of benchmark data used to develop quality practices to monitor and reduce this leading cause of pre-analytical laboratory error. This review aims to investigate current methods of haemolysis detection and reporting. Method Due to known heterogeneity and immaturity of the research field, a scoping search was conducted using PUBMED, Embase, Medline and CINAHL. Articles published between 2000 and 2014 that reported haemolysis rates in specimens from the general population were included. Results Of the 50 studies that met the inclusion criteria, 20 detected haemolysis using the Haemolysis Index (HI), 19 by visual inspection and 13 by undefined methods. There was large intra-study variation in the plasma free haemoglobin level used to establish haemolysis (HI: mean±SD 846±795 mg/L, range 150-3000 mg/L; Visual: 850±436 mg/L, 500-3000 mg/L). Sixteen studies reported the analyte of interest, with only three studies reporting a haemoglobin level at which the specimen would be rejected. Conclusion Despite haemolysis being a frequent and costly problem with a negative impact on patient care, there is poor consistency in haemolysis detection and reporting between studies. Improved consistency would facilitate the generation of benchmark data used to create quality practices to monitor and reduce this leading cause of pre-analytical laboratory error.

Abstract

Objective: To examine the impact of an electronic Results Acknowledgement (eRA) system on emergency physicians' test result management work processes and the time taken to acknowledge microbiology and radiology test results for patients discharged from an Emergency Department (ED). Methods: The impact of the eRA system was assessed in an Australian ED using: a) semi-structured interviews with senior emergency physicians; and b) a time and motion direct observational study of senior emergency physicians completing test acknowledgment pre and post the implementation of the eRA system. Results: The eRA system led to changes in the way results and actions were collated, stored, documented and communicated. Although there was a non-significant increase in the average time taken to acknowledge results in the post period, most types of acknowledgements (other than simple acknowledgements) took less time to complete. The number of acknowledgements where physicians sought additional information from the Electronic Medical Record (EMR) rose from 12% pre to 20% post implementation of eRA. Conclusions: Given that the type of results are unlikely to have changed significantly across the pre and post implementation periods, the increase in the time physicians spent accessing additional clinical information in the post period likely reflects the greater access to clinical information provided by the integrated electronic system. Easier access to clinical information may improve clinical decision making and enhance the quality of patient care. For instance, in situations where a senior clinician, not initially involved in the care process, is required to deal with the follow-up of non-normal results. Refereed/Peer-reviewed
