Deploy in Less than a Week: COVID-19 LIMS Preconfigured with FDA Approved COVID-19 Biobanking & Clinical Tests, Reports and Workflows

Seamlessly Follow CLIA, ISO 15189, and HIPAA Guidelines

• Ensure Confidentiality of Patient Data
• Manage Laboratory Staff Training
• Manage COVID-19 Diagnostic Instruments
• Manage Documents

Anonymize PHI of patients to protect sensitive data from unauthorized access by assigning role-based access to authorized personnel only.

Manage training and competency records of laboratory personnel and regularly monitor their performance for quality assurance. This helps laboratory managers to assign tasks only to the person with appropriate training, competency, and experience to perform the tasks efficiently.

Manage records of analytical instruments, schedule instrument calibration and perform preventive maintenance as defined by the instrument manufacturer or laboratory's internal practices. CloudLIMS helps you maintain calibration and maintenance results, and records of functional checks performed before use.

Manage documents, such as SOPs for COVID-19 specimen handling, track the revision history of documents, and ensure document control. CloudLIMS helps ensure that laboratory personnel refer only to the latest version of documents. Furthermore, CloudLIMS helps assign document access privileges to personnel based on their roles.

CloudLIMS Integrations

Clinical diagnostic testing laboratories receive hundreds of COVID-19 specimens on a day-to-day basis. One of the most common and reliable tests used for testing COVID-19 specimens is RT-PCR, a real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test for the qualitative detection of RNA of SARS-CoV-2. DNA sequencing is done for the confirmation of test results if required. Manual transfer of analytical data of thousands of specimens from RT-PCR instruments and other analytical instruments to a LIMS is error-prone and reduces laboratory efficiency. For minimizing the test turnaround time, it is important to automate the data transfer process. CloudLIMS can be seamlessly integrated with analytical instruments for bi-directional data transfer, thereby reducing turnaround time and eliminating chances of transcription errors.

How Does CloudLIMS Support Instrument & Software Integrations for COVID-19 Testing Labs?

CloudLIMS supports integration with analytical instruments and software through the following methods:

• Instrument Integration:

  CloudLIMS is preconfigured to seamlessly integrate with COVID-19 testing instruments, such as RT-PCR, NGS instruments, for bi-directional data transfer. CloudLIMS’ REST Application Programming Interface (API) enables developers to read and write data from/to an analytical instrument, ensuring data integrity and minimizing turnaround time.

• Software Integration:

  CloudLIMS' Rest API is preconfigured to support integration with third-party software such as EMR, EHR, LIS, Patient Registries, etc. It can be integrated with the electronic reporting system of CDC/CSTE, FEMA, and other e-reporting tools, thereby automating reporting of test results. Furthermore, it can be integrated with medical or clinical billing software to effectively manage revenue cycles and minimize billing errors, enhancing customer experience.
