Just a little gentle musing for a quiet sultry August morning.
In the current edition of MLW (in which by the way Mike Hallworth always gets a
mention) is an article on Abbott's 'process flexibility scheme' In the article there is a
reference to the 'brain to brain pathway'. The brain being referred to is of course the
one possessed by the clinician. There is a notable absence of any reference to brains
in the laboratory except perhaps indirectly when it comes to optimising workflow.
Nothing at all about the skills of the lab staff in adding clinical and scientific value to
the simple numbers produced by the analysers. No doubt this was not the subject of
the article but don't lab staff possess brains to? How about the 'brain to BRAIN to brain
pathway'.
That's better. Now I can just wait for the out of office replies.
