Laboratories

Quality assurance is crucial within a medical laboratory to ensure that accurate and reliable test results are produced. Consequently, there is an ongoing need for medical laboratories to be technically proficient, streamline and standardise processes, use a risk-based approach and look for opportunities to drive quality improvement to support patient safety and regulatory compliance.

Medical laboratories are also required to demonstrate their commitment to patient safety through laboratory accreditation such as ISO 15189:2022 accreditation. ISO 15189 is an international standard that specifies requirements for quality and competence in medical laboratories.

To meet these requirements, it is essential to implement a comprehensive laboratory Quality Management System (QMS). A laboratory QMS such as Q-Pulse can play a key role in supporting the laboratory quality assurance function. It acts as a centralised system that ensures a defined, consistent approach to key laboratory quality management areas such as risk management, document control, internal audits and training.

Implementing a laboratory QMS utilising Q-Pulse software will support you in fulfilling the ISO 15189:2022, helping your medical laboratory to maintain the high standards of patient safety, which are fundamental to your service.
