    Author: Boran G, O'Moore R, Grimson W, Peters M, Hasman A, Groth T, Van Merode F.
    Journal: Clin Chim Acta; 1996 Apr 15; 248(1):19-30. PubMed ID: 8740567.
    Abstract:
    The OpenLabs project aims to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of clinical laboratory services by integrating decision support systems with laboratory information systems and equipment. Standards for electronic data interchange between laboratories and other medical systems using the EUCLIDES/OpenLabs coding scheme and an open architecture for clinical laboratory information systems have been specified. This article gives an account of the proposed architecture and outlines new software applications being developed using the architecture which provide advanced services for ordering and reporting of laboratory tests, advanced instrument workstation and laboratory management services, including an OpenLabs Service Manager application which co-ordinates the available services.
