About LIMS. Net

SUVARNA LIMS.NET is built from the ground up as an entirely web based LIMS application. It leverages XML and other advanced Internet technologies to facilitate data management and decision making within the lab, throughout the plant and across the enterprise.

SUVARNA LIMS.NET architecture incorporates standard web based features, with a scalable and extendable web browser client side application and a database server “farm.” Communications between client and server are achieved through standard web service messaging over hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP). Alternatively, a secure HTTP (HTTPS) can be used for a more secure environment.

LIMS Standards

LIMS Standards

CAP

The CAP standard which stands for College of American Pathologists is a benchmark for all pathology related services.

NABL

National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories which is premier autonomous institution for Accredit ion of laboratories in India.

The SUVARNA LIMS.NET system interface can be configured as a uni or bidirectional interface and can accommodate demographics, result and order transmission. SUVARNA LIMS internal system codes can be translated to several standard coding systems such as CPT, ICD9 and LOINC.

LIMS Standards

CLSI

Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute is a non profit organization which certifies and audits laboratory standards.

LOINC

We comply with the Logical Observation Identifiers Names and Codes which are defined by the Regenstrief Institute in USA

DICOM

We fully comply with the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine protocol for advanced digital imaging functions.

PACS

Our software support the Picture Archiving and Communication Systems

LIMS StandardsOur Software Modules achieve compliance with the following standards.HL7 –

Patient Summary ExchangeTo Exchange of Personal Health RecordsLaboratory ResultsHL7 V2.5.1 -> Laboratory Testing WorkflowPatient DemographicsHL7 V2.5.1 -> IHE PIX and PDQRadiology ResultsHL7 V2.5.1 -> LTW, Radiology Structured Workflow

ICDInternational Classification of Diseases (ICD)

CPTCurrent Procedural Terminology

Security Standards

SSL –Secure Socket LayerData send from server to client is encrypted

Firewall ProtectionIP address blocking for intruder systems

Database ProtectionDatabase passwords & security settings

User Access RightsHuge protection in terms of who can access what is provided by setting user access policies & user access rights to the system.

LIMS. Net follows major international data security standards as follows:

Compliance with all CAP requirements

Excellent speed with a simplified systemBidirectional interfacing, wherever possible

Good interaction with HIS, automatic capture of patient demographics, doctor, sample receipt, reporting time etcScanned patient request to be visible with report for verification and certificationDepartment wise segregation of reports allowing complete (one shot) verification and certification of all tests pertaining to one departmentWeb based application

Default pdf conversion and e-mail & sms facilityAutomatic back upsEasy search & retrieval option by MRD number/ full name

Compliance with all CAP requirements

Graphs of numerical data (serial tumor markers, Hb etc)

Periodic analysis of all tests done by the lab-all kinds of statistics- test wise, department wise , daily, monthly , annually etc.,Auto calculation facility for calculated parametersHighlighting the out of range values (color & bold) and auto alert device for critical valuesFacility to attach images to reports

Interfaced and transferred values to be seen on all systems across lab so updates and verification can done at any system, (out side people allowed view only after verification, & prints allowed only after certification)Record of report printingKeeping of old electronic copy of amended reports .

Compliance with all CAP requirements

Keeping of old electronic copy of amended reports . Pending reports...It would be useful if the option for checking the pending report list is available. Further, it would also be helpful if the Lab I.D number of an "Urgent waiting report" would automatically blink on the screen .Slots for more than one result with repeat test values side by side would be helpful.

It would be ideal to have only one window...However, sometimes if we need to check on patients clinical info , or use a quick find to search  a report/patient , it would be helpful to have the option to open another window..To include sample tracking system at all level of analysis

Specimen Tracking

Track specimens from receipt, processing, testing, reporting to storage

Electronically capture results from lab diagnostic equipment and store with specimen details

Protocols and algorithms for testing and final result determination

Patient Tracking

Patient focus

Enable determination of patient outcomes

Integrate patient and specimen information

Support patient management and care/treatment
