Scaling up and building an adaptive network of COVID-19 testing requires new technologies. The use of crowdsourcing to match demand with excess laboratory capacity is emerging as a solution to coordinate the right test at the right time. Crowdsourcing technology can help bridge the healthcare divide by rapidly connecting labs with providers to improve the velocity of COVID-19 testing.
Read MorePerforming a supply chain risk assessment has never been more important as the world becomes more interconnected and your product dependencies become more complex. If your lab is considering multiple COVID-19 analyzer platforms or products to shore up your testing coverage, a supply chain risk assessment will identify those overlapping supply chain issues
Read MorePerforming a supply chain risk assessment has never been more important, especially for COVID-19 testing kits and instrumentation. If you are considering multiple COVID-19 testing platforms to shore up your testing coverage, a new set of risk criteria should be considered to mitigate any supply chain disruptions. The rules have changed, and your risk assessment will help you build-in resilience into your supply chain.
Read MoreThe standardization of data transmission across the healthcare spectrum has never been more important or critical. Interoperability is the bridge between the medical community, our healthcare system and public health. One of the tools that can make a difference in the virus spread is data congruence to identify and manage the COVID-19 virus spread, support disease containment and influence future public policy.
Read MoreLaboratory testing data is created faster than most labs can aggregate and disperse data to their leadership and healthcare organizations. Dashboards specific for COVID-19 can capture data in-flight to support key management decisions to anticipate the virus spread and future impacts as the pandemic unfolds.
Read MoreThe Laboratory Technologist has been finally recognized as a key player in fighting diseases. The COVID-19 pandemic has elevated laboratory professionals out of the shadows and highlighted their importance in the management of mission critical results reporting that determines patient treatment and life-saving therapies.
Read MoreDelivering fast and accurate results for Interleukin-6 for COVID-19 patients is paramount when classifying and stratifying patient treatment. In fact – it is mission critical to report correct results. The application of auto-verification rules ensures that IL-6 results are managed appropriately to aid in predicting patient outcomes.
