An archival system for clinical laboratory data.

A magnetic tape-based archival system that provides for generation of computer-output microfiche has been developed. Data from magnetic tapes written on a turnkey laboratory system are used as the basis for generating the archival tapes. Programmed searches of the tapes allow retrieval directly by name or test(s). Accessing the computer-output microfiche allows retrieval by name and is being used to supplant a traditional file system.

Computerization of clinical laboratory procedure manuals.

Current code requires federally licensed clinical laboratories to have standard operating procedure manuals describing all tests performed. A computerized system for generating, revising, and excerpting manuals, which produces hard copy and microfiche, has been developed and appears to meet the regulatory criteria. The salient aspects of pertinent federal regulations, the features of the computerized system, the format of the manual, the users' experience therewith are described.
