Discuss how the hematology or chemistry instruments interact with the LIS.
1. Pick one of the 3 clinical areas (Radiology, Pharmacy, Lab)
2. Prepare a presentation on any technology that interacts with the EMR within any of the clinical areas. For example you can speak to how PACS systems integrate with the RIS or how modalities i.e. CT, MRI machines interact with the RIS/EMR. For lab you can speak to how the hematology or chemistry instruments interact with the LIS. For pharmacy you can speak on how medication standalone systems interact with the PIS i.e Omnicell or Pyxis.
Overall Im expecting you to go beyond the material and speak to how each respective area works. You can choose to speak on handheld imaging devices used out in the field for soldiers but you need to specify how that data gets back to a medical record. I dont want the history or companies, how many employees, or anything of the sort. Pay attention to your research. Pick one of the above mentioned areas and teach us something back as to how the instruments, modalities, med stations, pharmacy carousels, etc. tie back to the EMR.
