This study defines an "open laboratory information system" (LIS) model for clinical labs. The NetLab LIS met these criteria, demonstrating adaptability to evolving laboratory needs.

Area of Science:

  • Clinical Informatics
  • Laboratory Information Systems
  • Health Information Technology

Background:

  • The EU-AIM project "OpenLabs" conceptualized an "open LIS" architecture.
  • Commercial "open LIS" systems are not yet widely available.
  • Norwegian university hospitals required an alternative model for LIS openness.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the selection process for a new LIS in two Norwegian university hospitals.
  • To define and evaluate an alternative model for LIS openness.
  • To assess the compliance of the selected LIS (NetLab) with the proposed openness criteria.

Main Methods:

  • Market screening for a new LIS based on defined openness criteria.
  • Development of a five-point model for LIS openness.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Evaluation of the NetLab LIS against the established openness criteria.

    • Main Results:

    • A model for LIS openness was specified, requiring main-trend hardware/software, distributed computing, adequate documentation, configurability, and flexible data access.
    • The selected LIS, NetLab, was evaluated for compliance with this model.
    • The study demonstrated that NetLab could be adapted by local staff to meet diverse and changing laboratory requirements.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed model provides a practical framework for defining and achieving LIS openness.
    • The NetLab LIS demonstrated significant compliance with the proposed openness criteria.
    • Adaptability of LIS to specific and evolving laboratory demands is achievable through adherence to openness principles.
