Abstract
Quality in laboratory work means accurate, reliable and timely accepted laboratory results. As diagnostic testing includes five phases: pre-pre analytical, pre-analytical, analytical, post –analytical and post-post analytical, so it is almost important to define the important interrelationship connecting the various phases of the cycle. The, Identification of a valid quality indicators (QIs) is an important part allowing users to measure the quality of a chosen aspect of care through comparison against a known standard and according to the approach of the Institute Of Medicine (IOM) to quality in healthcare. Also, guidelines closes the gap between what clinician do and what scientific evidence supports.
AIM: The aim of this study is to optimize lab performance of the pre-pre, pre, post and post-post analytical phases of the lab work in the clinical hematology lab of Main Alexandria University hospital. This will be achieved by using ICSH guidelines for standardization of nomenclature and grading of peripheral blood cell morphological features, ICSH Recommendations for laboratory measurement of direct oral anticoagulants, ICSH guidelines for standardization of bone marrow specimens and reports, The American Society of Hematology 2018 guidelines for management of venous thrombo-embolism and optimal management of anticoagulation therapy, WHO guidelines for best practices in phlebotomy, Guidance from the Scientific and Standardization Committee for lupus anticoagulant and National minimum retesting intervals in pathology March 2021.
