- A software
- Ultimate motive:
✓Enhance efficiency in lab. operations through reducing manual responsibilities
Laboratory Information Management System
(LIMS)
Functional Requirements of LIMS
- Sample management
- Workflow management
- Reporting
- EMR/EHR
- Mobile
- ERP
Barcodes work for this purpose
Sample Management
- Delegate decision-making to the software
✓ Saves you time
✓ Identifies what you need to do with a sample and where it needs to go next
Workflow
includes several unique features which simplify its operation. The unique user interface can graphically represent the progress of a sample through the laboratory. Simply click on a selected step in the workflow diagram and go straight to
that LIMS function.

- Some LIMSs have EHR functionality built-in
EMR/EHR, Mobile and ERP
Mobile-friendly LIMS
EMR/EHR, Mobile and ERP
- ERP software helps manage inventory
EMR/EHR, Mobile and ERP
is a facility where the laboratory use of hazardous
chemicals occurs on a non-production basis
Laboratory Standards
Basic information will be obtained from the patient by the authorized person and will be used as a guide to the registration window
Patient registration
The process of generating statement of accounts (SOAs) or billing statements if in-patients, out-patients, and emergencies are the same
Billing
The process of generating statement of accounts (SOAs) or billing statements if in-patients, out-patients, and emergencies are the same
Billing
allow the laboratory professional to manage the billing and payment aspects of their activities and create statistical and billing reports at par with the laboratory and management needs.
Contract management
provide parameters for a flexible price schedule, and enable heightened attention on customer needs.
Contract management
the personnel in charge of managing accounts receivables can easily extractinformation which was already availablefrom the invoicing and contract management procedures.
Accounts receivables
- LIMS modules are linked to a
barcoding label generator - Barcode labels are printed on
label stickers - Barcodes are read using a
barcode scanner
Barcode-generation, Printing and Reading
a software system that facilitates the management samples, test results, and associated data to improve lab productivity and effectiveness
LIMS
harmonization of workflows, procedures and tests and also ensures control over the processes in the lab

core functionality of a LIMS
LIMS sample management system
provide accurate records of each sample, form the moment it is received in the lab throughout its life cycle
LIMS sample management system
stores all the important information about the sample such as exp date, storage, names of researchers and it source
LIMS
is a functionality that provides increased integration with lab instruments

Procedure execution
data management
used to reference systems installed in industry settings in facilities such as pharmaceutical research laboratories or other industrial lab
LIMS
used for envirnmental, research, commercial analysis, abd to improve lab workflow and safety.
LIMS
focuses on patients rather than on a sample
LIS
used in clinical conditions to store snd msnage patients data and their test results
LIS
stores patients demographic information and record of clinical diagnosis
LIS
not specifically connected to labs but applies to wider scope and is used to support and guide the development of high-tech manufacturing technologies
