13% of all drug susceptibility tests (DSTs) performed at a public laboratory in Peru were duplicate. To determine reasons for duplicate requests an online survey was implemented in the e-Chasqui laboratory information system. Results showed that 59.6% of tests were ordered because clinical staff was unaware of ordering guidelines or of a previous result. This shows a benefit of using a web-based system and the lack of laboratory information available to clinical staff in Peru.
在秘鲁一家公共实验室进行的所有药敏试验(DST)中,13%是重复检测。为了确定重复申请的原因,在e-Chasqui实验室信息系统中开展了一项在线调查。结果显示,59.6%的检测是因为临床工作人员不知道检测申请指南或之前的检测结果而进行的。这表明了使用基于网络的系统的好处,也表明了秘鲁临床工作人员可获取的实验室信息不足。
