Laboratory Management Information System (LAMIS)
What is LAMIS?
LAMIS is a multilingual laboratory management information system for the microbiology and biochemistry laboratories developed
on Oracle platform. It is used to track patient information and activities in the laboratories. LAMIS has been developed with the help of many different types of medical professionals. The software fully reflects business processes in the laboratories. It can run as a standalone application or as a part of a larger system. Interaction with other systems, such are machines for the sample analysis, is possible. In addition to the usual LAN configuration, LAMIS 2 will be offered as a service on Oracle Cloud and AWS.
The first version of LAMIS has been released in March 2009. Since it has been
introduced, LAMIS has been able to produce valuable scientific and statistical
reports. A daily laboratory work list is generated for each work area, providing
the responsible technician with information on previously processed specimens.
Manipulation of the patient and specimen information permits the performance of
various functions, including the workload statistics, quality-control summaries,
epidemiological surveys, and cumulative reports. Reports may contain complete
descriptions antimicrobial susceptibility results, that can be directly
associated with other data regarding the specimen, specific organism, different
wards in the Clinical Center, or the specific time of observation.
The goal of LAMIS 2 was too keep simple user interface for the laboratory
staff while adding new features and optimizing the application to work in the
cloud environment.
Itilla is offering data mining and statistical analysis services of your LAMIS
data with RODM interface. This can include cross-referencing your data
with data from the third party databases (GIS, climate, etc).
LAMIS is a multilingual application. Currently there are versions in English and Bosnian.
LAMIS Advantages
LAMIS has improved efficiency and service quality and cut the costs in the
microbiology department with its advantages. Some of these advantages include:
- Patient record history data is stored in one place. There is no need for the
unnecessary examinations. This benefit cuts down cost in the laboratory
materials and human resources and improves a quality of service.
- Software is
adapted to the laboratory business processes.
- The data entry is fast and
accurate because LAMIS is based on the predefined utility tables. Most of the
data is stored in the drop down lists. The data in these tables is based on WHO
standards.
- Users can define templates for the analysis results.
- LAMIS can
work on Oracle 11g XE and higher versions of Oracle. With Oracle 11g XE there is
no need for the Oracle license. This solution is ideal for the smaller
laboratories.
- LAMIS can work on any operating system that support Oracle
(UNIX, Linux, Windows)
- Managers can view “real-time” reports on the
performances of the laboratories and individual users.
- Users can search
analysis status by many different parameters.
- The software is a web
application. Client machines just need to have word processing software and
internet browser. This significantly cuts down the maintenance costs.
- In
addition to the usual LAN configuration, LAMIS 2 will be offered as a service on
Oracle Cloud and AWS. This will cut down maintenance costs and increase ROI.
This configuration will also make LAMIS accessible from any device that has
Internet access (Tablets, smart phones etc.)
