    Activity 1: How Will I Classify A Clinical Laboratory?

    Uploaded by

    Roselie Mae Garcia
    This document discusses how to classify clinical laboratories based on function, institutional characteristics, and service capability. There are three main types of classifications: 1) by function into clinical pathology laboratories focusing on diagnosis through laboratory analysis or anatomical pathology; 2) by institution as either hospital-based or non-hospital based; and 3) by service capability as primary, secondary, or tertiary depending on the examinations and tests provided.

    Activity 1: How will I classify a clinical laboratory?

    In reference to RA 4688 and DOH Administrative Order No. 59 s. 2001 clinical laboratories classified
    accordingly:

    1. Classification by function Sections to be established in the laboratory

    a. Clinical pathology is a clinical Clinical chemistry, immunohematology and blood


    laboratory that specializes in the banking, medical microbiology, immunoserology,
    diagnosis and treatment of illnesses hematology, parasitology, clinical microscopy,
    utilizing laboratory analysis of fluid
    toxicology, therapeutic drug monitoring, and
    and electrolyte balance.
    endocrinology are only a few examples.

    b. atomic pathology Surgical Pathology, Immunohistopathology, Cytology,


    Autopsy and Forensic Pathology.

    2. Classification by Institutional Character a. Hospital–based laboratory – a laboratory that


    operates within a hospital.

    b. Non–hospital–based laboratory – a laboratory that


    operates on its own.

    3. Classification by Service Capability

    a. Primary – provides the minimum service capabilities such as:

    Examinations conducted (1) Routine Hematology (Complete Blood Count or CBC)


    – includes Hemoglobin Mass Concentration,
    Erythrocyte Volume Fraction (Hematocrit),
    Leukocyte Number Concentration (WBC count) and
    Leukocyte Type Number Fraction (Differential
    Count), Qualitative Platelet Determination
    (2) Routine Urinalysis
    (3) Routine Fecalysis
    (4) Blood typing – hospital based
    (5) Quantitative platelet determination – hospital based
    b. Secondary – provides the minimum service capabilities of a primary category and the following:

    Examinations conducted (1) Routine Clinical Chemistry – includes Blood Glucose

    Substance Concentration, Blood Urea Nitrogen


    Concentration, Blood Uric Acid Substance
    Concentration, Blood Creatinine Concentration, Blood
    Total Cholesterol Concentration
    (2) Cross matching

    c. Tertiary – provides the secondary service capabilities and the following:

    Examinations conducted (1) Special Chemistry- Clinical enzymology, therapeutic


    medication monitoring, and markers for specific
    disorders
    (2)
    (3) Special Hematology- Studies on bone marrow,
    specific labeling for abnormal cells, and red cell
    morphology
    (4)
    (5) Immunology/Serology- NS1-Ag for dengue, fast
    plasmaregin, and particle agglutination tests for
    Treponema pallidum
    (6)
    (7) Microbiology- Differential staining methods, culture
    and identification of bacteria and fungus from
    specimens,  testing for antimicrobial susceptibility
