Key learning objectives:
- Identify key challenges and barriers to implementing Quality Indicators (QIs) and risk management protocols in the laboratory, including limitations related to time, resources, and data accessibility.
- Understand the essential QIs recommended by the IFCC Working Group on Laboratory Errors and Patient Safety (WG-LEPS), and their impact for improving patient safety, quality improvement, and global harmonization of laboratory practices.
- Apply practical tools and digital strategies to monitor key QIs and incorporate risk management into daily workflows, leveraging informatics platforms, dashboards, and performance data to support continuous quality improvement.
From Data to Action: Leveraging Essential Quality Indicators and Digital Solutions to Improve Patient Safety
Quality indicators (QIs) are critical tools in strengthening quality systems and ensuring patient safety in laboratory medicine. They enable labs to monitor performance, identify areas for improvement, and proactively reduce errors across the total testing process. Despite their recognized value, many laboratories struggle to implement and utilize QIs effectively, often due to limited time, resources, or data access.
Dr. Vincent De Guire, clinical biochemist in the Optilab Montreal-CHUM laboratory network and clinical assistant professor at the University of Montreal in Canada, will introduce a focused set of essential quality indicators identified through international consensus by the IFCC Working Group on Laboratory Errors and Patient Safety (WG-LEPS). These QIs were selected for their strong link to patient safety, applicability across diverse laboratory environments, and potential to support global harmonization of quality data. Participants will gain insight into why targeting a small number of high-impact indicators can yield more meaningful and sustainable quality improvements.
Dr. De Guire will also explore practical strategies for integrating QIs into daily operations using informatics tools, dashboards and laboratory information system (LIS platforms), empowering labs to drive quality, achieve accreditation goals, and enhance patient outcomes.
