Running a high-throughput clinical diagnostic lab comes with its own set of challenges. Are you facing delayed test results, misplaced samples, frequent errors, fragmented data, or compliance hurdles?
TRACE is a diagnostic tool, with a series of scored questions, which can help you pinpoint these bottlenecks.
The TRACE tool can be used to assess:
Turnaround Time (TAT)
How efficiently your samples get processed and deliver complete results to your clients, especially during peak periods?
Real-time Tracking
How quickly you can track and trace samples and test results throughout your lab?
Accuracy of Data
How accurate are your data and workflow processes, including collection, labeling, handling, and data entry issues?
Compliance
The capability of your lab to conduct regular audits to ensure compliance with regulatory standards. Can you easily review documentation and records, evaluate lab processes against SOPs, check for procedure adherence, and review QC measures?
Efficiency
How efficient your lab’s overall operation is from workflow automation to resource management?
Take The TRACE Test
No matter how you’ve scored on the TRACE test there is always room for improvement. Take a look at our whitepaper ‘Overcoming Operational Bottlenecks in High-Throughput Clinical Labs’ for actionable advice on tackling the efficiency challenges faced by today’s clinical diagnostics labs.
