[Clinical laboratory system in a complete electronic hospital].
The use of a Laboratory Information System (LIS) and Laboratory Automation System (LAS) are clearly superior to manual results in terms of completeness and legibility. As the current clinical information system (CIS) in Gifu University Hospital consists of a complete electronic medical record system, the clinical laboratory was re-engineered to simplify workflow, pay attention to quality assurance, and decrease various costs by an intelligent laboratory management system. We named the new system Gifu Premiotic Intelligent Laboratory System (GPILS). Further advances will concentrate on the cost-effective use of LIS, and the potential use of GPILS in our laboratories will be discussed. In addition, because one of our clinical laboratories currently provides various useful clinical laboratory-oriented information to physicians and patients, we have developed new tools named the "Reference Data Base (RefDB)". In the near future, several different types of computer technology for various clinical laboratory information will lead to the development of highly specific platforms for LIS corresponding to a complete electronic medical record system.
