An HPLC method for analysis of clonazepam in serum.

A sensitive, accurate, and precise method for the analysis of clonazepam in serum was developed. The drug and internal standard from serum extracts were methylated to obviate carbamazepine interference and then resolved on a 5 micron C18 HPLC column. The mobile phase could also be used for many other basic drugs.

Taming the supplies and inventory process at Westmead Hospital.

UNLABELLED: In July 1991, a team within the Clinical Chemistry Department at Westmead Hospital used control charts and other statistical tools to analyze the supplies and inventory process. No single major problem was discovered. Instead, the team found many small problems causing delays and inefficiencies in the process. By developing and implementing multiple solutions, the team was able to streamline the process and reduce the number of principal suppliers. RESULTS: The number of principal suppliers was reduced by two-thirds. The average number of "urgent" orders, which add extra steps to the purchasing process, was reduced by three-quarters. The mean turnaround time for common clinical chemistry laboratory tests improved by 8%.
