When it comes to providing quality patient care, the reporting and management of key laboratory values are absolutely necessary. In the context of a small community hospital, the objective of this study was to determine the percentage of essential laboratory values that were not reported by the nurse to the physician or that were not correctly documented. In the case of patients who had crucial laboratory findings, the amount of time that passed before a suitable therapy was prescribed was cut down by an automated alerting system. There is a possibility that the quality of treatment might be improved by information technologies that make it easier to transmit vital patient data.
