Abstract

to the study Evaluation of pre analytical errors in clinical biochemistry laboratory and how to minimize them MATERIALS AND METHOD: A prospective study was done in the Clinical central laboratory symbiosis medical college for women & symbiosis university hospital research center, symbiosis international Deemed university pune, biochemical tests including blood glucose, renal function tests, liver function tests, lipid profile, phosphorus, uric acid, calcium, urine microprotein, other body fluids electrolytes, and blood gases were performed using the ERBA XL 340 and Trivitron Dirui Autoanalyzer. Serum samples were collected in plain vacutainer tubes having clot activator and gel separator. . Frequency of deficiencies in the request forms and different types of pre-analytical errors were recorded. Results: the study period, the frequency of pre-analytical errors was about Sample hemolysis was the predominant error in sample collected from both indoor and outdoor patients. Conclusion: pre-analytical errors requires continuous evaluation of source of errors, and By standardization and monitoring the steps involved in obtaining a sample, the pre-analytical errors will greatly reduce.
