Laboratories and IVD manufacturers need to understand the connectivity challenges facing medical laboratories today. AUTO16 can help the lab or IVD manufacturer improve interoperability, reduce connectivity installation cost and time, and improve integrity of patient data.
AUTO16 defines a connectivity standard based on the Laboratory Analytical Workflow (LAW) Profile1 of the Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise organization, which originated from the work of the IVD Industry Connectivity Consortium.
In addition to the LAW Profile, this standard includes implementation and integration guidance, security considerations, examples, and other supplemental information. This standard specifies requirements for the data exchange associated with the analytical workflow between medical laboratory in vitro diagnostic (IVD) instruments and the systems managing their work. This data exchange includes test orders and test results for both patients and QC specimens. Additional guidance is also provided to aid in the standard’s adoption and implementation. This standard applies to all medical laboratory specialties (including blood bank testing).
The intended users of this standard are:
- IVD instrument vendors
- IVD software systems vendors (LIS and middleware)
- Medical laboratory information technology (IT) personnel.
