For Laboratory tracking of specimen from site of sampling to receipt in laboratory we use (Royal Cornwall Hospital) the Indexor system. Samples are scanned in at surgery/clinic and transported to lab with full audit trail of transport time, temperature monitoring and impact recording. With the added advantage of automatic requesting on receipt via our LIMS we are able to deliver time sensitive and priority tests directly to our STAT pathway with routine samples delivered direct to track. The sample journey can be examined remotely through a web search and this solution can also be used between referral laboratories to ensure all specimens are tracked and accounted for.
