Abstract

BACKGROUND

The EFLM Task Force Preparation of Labs for Emergencies (TF-PLE) created a survey that has been distributed to its members for gathering information on the key hazards experienced by European medical laboratories during the COVID-19 pandemic.

METHODS

The survey was distributed to over 12,000 potential contacts (laboratory workers) via an EFLM newsletter, with responses collected between May 8 and June 8, 2023.

RESULTS

Two hundred replies were collected and examined from European laboratories. 69.7% and 78.1% of all responders said they were short on non-COVID and COVID reagents, respectively. Exactly half of respondents (50.0%) said that they could not complete all laboratory tests required for a specific period, but this figure climbed to 61.2% for COVID tests. Finally, 72.3% of respondents expressed exhaustion during the pandemic, and 61.2% reported increasing patient hostility.

CONCLUSIONS

The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant impact on laboratory medicine in Europe. Cultural change, proactive planning, and even re-engineering in some parts of the laboratory industry may thus be necessary to prepare for future challenges.

摘要

背景

欧洲临床实验室医学联合会应急实验室准备工作组（TF-PLE）开展了一项调查，并将其分发给成员，以收集有关欧洲医学实验室在新冠疫情期间所经历的主要风险的信息。

方法

该调查通过欧洲临床实验室医学联合会时事通讯分发给12000多名潜在联系人（实验室工作人员），于2023年5月8日至6月8日收集回复。

结果

从欧洲实验室收集并审查了200份回复。所有回复者中，分别有69.7%和78.1%表示非新冠试剂和新冠试剂短缺。恰好一半的受访者（50.0%）表示他们无法完成特定时期所需的所有实验室检测，但新冠检测的这一比例升至61.2%。最后，72.3%的受访者表示在疫情期间感到疲惫，61.2%的受访者报告患者敌意增加。
