Ol Monitor is a turn-around-time management and acceleration tool for labs using the Misys lab information system.  OL_Monitor is a program that interacts with the Misys™ (Formerly Sunquest™) Laboratory information system. OL_Monitor integrates seamlessly with Esker™ Smarterm, the client of choice for most laboratories. Like a tireless unblinking eye, it keeps up with the Outstanding log. In addition it adds critical information the Outstanding log lacks, how long tests have been outstanding. This is just the beginning, read on to find out.

The idea for DragInfo for Kit Lots came to me the same way most of my ideas do: Out of frustration after wasting hours of time doing a tedious, repetitive task.  As part of a continuing effort to make our lab paperless, it was decided that we could eliminate several logbooks by appending each serology test with the respective serology kit lot and expiration date info.  Management happily tossed the old logbooks into storage, patted themselves on the back and moved on. 

However the bench techs found that typing in “Kit Lot: RAND0M L3TT3RS AND NUMBERS” “Kit Expiration: 01/01/2024” “Cartridge Lot: …..” (you get the idea) for each and every test, enormously tedious.  In fact many techs began to avoid the Serology bench like the plague fearing a rush of sero tests from ER would trap them in an endless carpal tunnel loop.  Read more…
