Atellica® Process Manager User Cases-Sample Processing and Tests Ordered/Started/Received Reports Job Aid
This job aid will give detailed descriptions and instructions on how to utilize the Sample Processing and Tests Ordered/Started/Received Reports.
Atellica® Process Manager User Cases- Sample Processing and Tests Ordered/Started/Released Reports Sample Processing Report The Sample Processing report displays metrics on sample centrifugation and loading. The data enables the laboratory to improve efficiency by comparing turnaround time differences between samples that are loaded and centrifuged on the automation track versus samples that are front- loaded on the analyzers and are either not centrifuged or are not centrifuged on the track. Note: The Sample Processing report only displays data for samples that have completed testing.

This data can be powerful to show to operators who may be front-loading samples, thinking that doing so will provide quicker turnaround times ➢ Samples that are centrifuged off the track may show a broader standard deviation in turn around time compared to samples centrifuged on the track. Manual handling of samples may have introduced variability to turn around times Unrestricted | Published by Siemens Healthcare GmbH © Siemens Healthcare GmbH, 2020 SIEMENS Master Template Effective Date: 5 Mar 2020 | HOOD05162003074494 Job Aid Effective Date: 03-AUG-2020 | HOOD05162003101668 Healthineers Job Aid | APM User Cases Sample Processing and Tests Ordered/Started/Received Reports Effective Date: 03-Aug-2020 | HOOD05162003101668 Practice: 1. Change the TAT Start Event to: Test Order Received 2. Look at the Sample Centrifugation pie chart and note the % of samples that are being track spun over this period. Compare the TAT performance of centrifugation methods using the Average TAT by Sample Processing graph. Note the average TAT for the track spun samples versus samples spun off- track (Other). Look at the Sample Loading pie chart and note the % of samples that are being front loaded 3. Compare the TAT performance of loading methods using the Average TAT by Sample Processing graph. Changing the Y-axis to Sample Loading. Note the average TAT for the track loaded versus the front-loaded samples 4. Look at the TAT Distribution graphs in the bottom right and note the distribution of performance (based on the 95th and 5th percentile values) for these different sample processing methods. Typically, you would expect to see broader distribution, indicating slightly greater TAT variability, when samples are front loaded or centrifuged off the track Tests Ordered/Started/Released Report Evaluate lab workloads from the time tests are ordered, to the time they start the analytical process, to the time they are resulted or released to the LIS. Identify and resolve inefficiencies using the charts that show test volumes by Hour, Test Name, and Patient Location. View a single comparative graph to see Tests Ordered, Tests Started, and Tests Released side by side and form new insights on workload management in the lab.

The data in these graphs can help to identify inefficiencies within pre- analytical or post-analytical processes Practice: 1. Use the Month filter to select one month and notice the pattern of test orders in the Test Volumes by Hour graph at the bottom left. Note the times of day when most of the tests are ordered 2. Change the Y axis on the Test Volumes by Hour graph to Tests Started to display the times when those tests start the analytical process in the lab. Note the times of day when most of the tests are started 3. Change the Y axis on the Test Volumes by Hour chart to Tests Released to see the times when those tests are resulted. Note the times of day when most of the tests are resulted Unrestricted | Published by Siemens Healthcare GmbH © Siemens Healthcare GmbH, 2020 SIEMENS Master Template Effective Date 5 Mar 2020 | HOOD05162003074494 Job Aid Effective Date: 03-AUG-2020 | HOOD05162003101668 Healthineers Page 3 of 4 Job Aid | APM User Cases Sample Processing and Tests Ordered/Started/Received Reports Effective Date: 03-Aug-2020 | HOOD05162003101668 Please note that the learning material is for training purposes only.
