A survey of the state of the art of clinical biochemistry laboratory computerisation.
This paper presents the results of a survey which was recently carried out in order to clarify the current 'state of the art' regarding the use of computers in hospital biochemistry laboratories. Information was obtained by means of a questionnaire which was mailed to a sample of United Kingdom hospital laboratories. The results obtained from the analysis of the data from the questionnaire replies are presented, and conclusions are drawn regarding the implications of hospital laboratory computerisation.
