BACKGROUND
The Stepwise Laboratory Quality Improvement Process Towards Accreditation (SLIPTA) checklist is used worldwide to drive quality improvement in laboratories in developing countries and to assess the effectiveness of interventions such as the Strengthening Laboratory Management Toward Accreditation (SLMTA) programme. However, the paper-based format of the checklist makes administration cumbersome and limits timely analysis and communication of results.
DEVELOPMENT OF E-TOOL: In early 2012, the SLMTA team in Vietnam developed an electronic SLIPTA checklist tool. The e-Tool was pilot tested in Vietnam in mid-2012 and revised. It was used during SLMTA implementation in Vietnam and Cambodia in 2012 and 2013 and further revised based on auditors' feedback about usability.
OUTCOMES
The SLIPTA e-Tool enabled rapid turn-around of audit results, reduced workload and language barriers and facilitated analysis of national results. Benefits of the e-Tool will be magnified with in-country scale-up of laboratory quality improvement efforts and potential expansion to other countries.
背景
逐步实现认证的实验室质量改进流程（SLIPTA）检查表在全球范围内用于推动发展中国家实验室的质量改进，并评估诸如迈向认证的强化实验室管理（SLMTA）计划等干预措施的有效性。然而，检查表的纸质格式使得管理繁琐，并限制了结果的及时分析和交流。
电子工具的开发
2012年初，越南的SLMTA团队开发了一种电子SLIPTA检查表工具。该电子工具于2012年年中在越南进行了试点测试并修订。它在2012年和2013年越南和柬埔寨实施SLMTA期间被使用，并根据审核员关于可用性的反馈进一步修订。
成果
SLIPTA电子工具实现了审核结果的快速周转，减少了工作量和语言障碍，并促进了对国家结果的分析。随着国内实验室质量改进工作的扩大以及可能向其他国家的扩展，电子工具的益处将得到放大。
