Posted on 17 Mar 2009
The newest edition of a blood bank software application incorporates enhanced functionality for patient safety and is a key component of an integrated closed-loop blood-administration system.

As part of the end-to-end patient-safety solution for blood administration, Blood Bank is fully integrated with positive patient ID specimen collection and transfusion management components. More...
Users report that collection and administration errors are reduced to zero when using the system and workflow-process improvements expedite the time to diagnosis and treatment by decreasing the sample-collection and result reporting turnaround times.
