Hi James, Thanks for your replies to this topic. Normally, our workflow would be similar to yours I think. This is an unusual circumstance at present where we are sending large volumes of tests away. I don’t believe there is a quicker way to do what we need to do, but thank you for your feedback. Much appreciated.

Hello, yes it’s the transfer specimens icon. Firstly, I go to the log in page and scan barcodes of 90 samples, click log-in, which opens a box, which displays the current location. At the top of that box there’s an option to reroute the sample somewhere else. You can choose a new location and click enter. After that you use the down arrow to select the next patient sample, and so on (90 times)! Once that is done, uncheck labels and click ok. Then go to the transfer specimen page, rescan all your barcodes and save. Once you have the transfer list number, you can transfer that list to the new location. Its a long process. Do you have a shortcut?

Hello all, We're currently using Cerner millenium LIS and needing to re-route and transfer a bulk of tests daily from our lab to a non-hub government lab for help with the Covid testing. Is there a fast way to do this? At present we are re-routing one by one (up to 300 a day) and creating a transfer list. It takes too long. There must be a better way. Thanks in advance.

Hi Micro people, I see that there is still not much action here on the Micro forum, compared to the awesome Blood bank forum..but I am going to try my luck anyway and put my question out there! I need to export some raw MIC data from the Vitek 2 compact, to a flash drive for use on a study that the lab is participating in. Yes I could phone the company etc and ask some colleagues but boy, everyone is sooo busy during our shift, so its way easier for me when I have the headspace at home. I correlate the data for a quarterly timeframe and use the AGAR (Australian Group on Antimicrobial Resistance) portal to lodge our findings. I have recently taken on this role and learning the ropes. Anyone know how to get the raw mic data out for a particular time period?? Thanks in advance, Linda

Thanks for that. Yes it's micro. I have a list of checks to do, but thought it would be reasonable to select say 3 pieces of equipment rather than trying to cover them all. Is that normally acceptable?

I have been asked to 'look after' the audits.... mmmm ok, where to start .. I have a schedule..from the QPULSE system So this is internal audits. The first one I will be tackling is the equipment audit. Does anyone have some advice on the best way to go about this..so as to do it well and thoroughly..??

Hi I have recently returned to micro after a 10 year stint in Blood Bank, so I know about the great BB forum. I am at a public teaching hospital in Sydney Australia , a very busy micro lab. Things have changed in 10 years, we now have PCR and a Maldi...! It would be great to get some feedback on issues in Micro and maybe help out where I can... LJE.....
