Five stations we time before any table is printed
This page is the map we walk with your chaperone. It is the skeleton of every TAT pack and every huddle board.
1. ReceiptWindow, tube station, or courier fridge. We record who stamps and whether the LIS clock matches the stamp.
2. AccessionOrder checks, rejected draws, and relabeling. Relabels often vanish from averages.
3. PreparationCentrifuge batches, aliquots, and STAT interruptions that steal rotors from routine chemistry.
4. AnalysisQueue at the module, reagent change, clot detection, and reruns.
5. Verification and releaseSenior holds, delta checks, add-ons, and the moment the clinician can read the result.
