Contribution of connected prescriptions (NetSIG) for the management of molecular pathology exams

CONCLUSION: Connected prescriptions made this complex circuit more fluid and facilitated the redistribution of different administrative and technical tasks. The number of phone calls decreased sharply. Half of the prescriptions were made by pathologists and half by oncologists (physicians or secretaries). The mean dearchiving duration for blocks was one day. Mean forwarding of blocks was 2.5 days. Mean turnaround time was 8 days for targeted techniques and 13 days for Next Generation Sequencing. Physicians appreciated the interactivity of the software and the fact that they could consult it on a smartphone.PMID:38503611 | DOI:10.1016/j.annpat.2024.02.009
