[A trial approach to the ideal control-management and systematization of clinical laboratory].
Clinical laboratory examinations have continued to expand with the increase in demand for medical care. However, recent high-technology, medical care has made introduction of a new system of quality control in the clinical laboratory indispensable. First, regarding personnel (clinical laboratory technicians), reducing staff hours led to a drop in the employment of newcomers and subsequent aging of the staff. Next, introducing a system to save labor is extremely expensive, making the cost effectiveness very poor and consequently making it difficult to introduce such a system in many laboratories. This symposium was initiated to assist the search for ways in which the present clinical laboratory can survive despite rising personnel expenses and reagent costs, while reducing medical expenses. And at the same time developing a guide to establishing our ideal for the clinical laboratory of the 21st century.
