Emergency centers with patient volumes in excess of 20,000 visits per year can benefit from a stat laboratory within its area. A stat lab can reduce waiting time for common emergency center tests. This chapter has attempted to present a "how to" approach in establishing a satellite laboratory in the emergency center. While an expense of $10,000 to $20,000 is minimum for such a laboratory, the authors believe the benefits of improved and timely patient care can offset these costs. With the ever increasing financial burdens of modern hospitals, these recommendations may be too costly for some departments. An alternative to consider is a basic laboratory for physicians maintained by central laboratory. The equipment required is listed in Table 2.
每年接诊量超过20000人次的急救中心可以从其区域内的即时检验实验室中受益。即时检验实验室可以减少急救中心常见检验的等待时间。本章试图介绍一种在急救中心建立卫星实验室的“操作指南”方法。虽然这样一个实验室的最低费用为10000美元至20000美元，但作者认为改善并及时提供患者护理所带来的益处可以抵消这些成本。鉴于现代医院日益增加的财务负担，这些建议对某些科室来说可能成本过高。另一种可考虑的选择是由中心实验室为医生维护的基础实验室。所需设备列于表2中。
