Laboratory Information Management System Flashcards
It is the SOFTWARE SYSTEM that facilitates the management of sample test results, and associated data to IMPROVE LAB PRODUCTIVITY AND EFFECTIVENESS.
Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS)
It is the CORE FUNCTIONALITY of a LIMS.
LIMS Sample Management System
It is a FUNCTIONALITY that provides INCREASE INTEGRATION with LAB INSTRUMENTS.
LIMS Instrument Integration
It is in CONTROL of LIMS procedures, SOPs, and methods used in the lab.
Procedure Execution
The GROWING VOLUME OF DATA created in laboratories has resulted in the integration of effective data.
Data Management
What are the FIVE PURPOSE of implementing LIMS?
- Efficiency
- Safety
- Compliance
- Speed
- Work Comfort
One of the MOST FREQUENTLY mentioned advantages of LIMS.
It is the HIGHEST LEVEL OF PERFORMANCE in the laboratory.
E.G., it minimizes the use of paper.
Efficiency
It is GUARANTEES RESPONSIBLE and CONFIDENTIAL use of data.
- Inviolability of samples
- Privacy of data
Safety
A LIMS that FAILS TO COMPLY may lead to the laboratory, or the institution or organization, facing serious repercussions or undesirable events.
- Losses due to product failure
- Remediation costs
- Identification
- Correction
- Reporting of a problem
Compliance
FORMERLY, DATA, and INFORMATION are printed on different pages of paper, and this can be very restrictive to the process of locating or retrieving a piece of particular information.
- Access to data
- Information
- Easier, effective, and time-efficient
Speed
It significantly streamlines WORKFLOW and ensures the safety of both lab workers and the samples they are working on, as well as obtained data.
Working with LIMS is NOT ONLY effective but also comfortable.
- Great responsibility
- Versatility
- Multi functionality
Comfort
What are the FOUR ADVANTAGES of LIMS?
- Productivity
- Automation
- Connectivity
- Cost-cutting
It SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVES and FACILITIES work in the laboratory by providing technologies and solutions implemented in laboratories.
Modern laboratories DO NOT leave their employees high and dry.
There is NOTHING more costly than wasting precious time.
- Works becomes more efficient
- Less fatigue
- LIMS is such a solution
Productivity
STREAMLINING WORK and INCREASING PRODUCTIVITY is possible due to the processes in the laboratory.
- Used to streamline the laboratory workflow
- Automate and facilitate laboratory inventory management
- Complicated and troublesome
Automation
LIMS can provide INCREASED INTEGRATION with other laboratory instruments.
- Offers a ground-breaking possibility to connect to Microsoft Holo Lens 2
- They created a revolutionary solution known as Holo4Labs
- AR (Augmented Reality)
Connectivity
LIMS NOT ONLY SAVES TIME and streamline workflow but also minimize the number of unnecessary resources used in these processes.
- It reduces the use of paper
- Data is stored digitally
Cost-cutting
One of the MOST CRUCIAL ADVANTAGES of LIMS is that it provides a single platform for various laboratory activities.
The purpose of implementing LIMS
What are the FIVES BENEFITS of LIMS for respective laboratory employees?
- Collaboration
- Data Visualization
- Sample Management
- Data Management
- Workflow Management
LIMS is a VERSATILE TOOL offering numerous solutions facilitating work in the lab.
