USE CASE

PRIORITIZE URGENT SAMPLES EFFICIENTLY

CHALLENGE

 

When samples arrive at the laboratory, they often include a mix of routine and urgent tests. Urgent samples require immediate attention due to clinical needs or physician requests, but they frequently arrive in bags or boxes without clear organization. This makes it difficult to quickly identify and process priority samples, which can lead to delays in testing and, in some cases, loss of sample viability. Manual check-in at the LIS further slows down the process.

COMMON ISSUES

  • Time diverted from critical tasks to sort incoming samples

  • Manual identification of urgent samples

  • Delays in check-in and prioritization

  • Increased risk of compromised sample viability

HOW INDEXOR HELPS

Indexor streamlines urgent sample handling by automating organization and prioritization steps:

Organized Arrival:
Samples are placed in iRacks at collection sites, eliminating the need for unbagging during lab reception

Automated Check-In:
Simply placing racks in an Indexor module checks in all samples to the LIS in seconds

Instant Urgent Identification:
Worklist alerts highlight urgent samples, and a blinking LED guides technicians to the exact tube for quick retrieval

INDEXOR BENEFITS

Potential improvements with the Indexor solution: 

  • Supports faster and less stressful sample check-in

  • Enables timely identification of urgent samples

  • Contributes to improved turnaround times

  • Helps reduce sample disposal due to viability loss

  • Enhances overall laboratory workflow efficiency
