A clinical board of directors determines that their clinic is not organized when it comes to storing blood work, test results, and microbiology results. Which of the following information systems would be most suitable for organizing this type of patient care? A. Laboratory Information System O B. Picture Archiving System O C. Nursing Information System O D. Radiology Information System

The most suitable information system to organize blood tests, test results and microbiology results of a patient is Laboratory Information System (Option A).

Explanation:

The Laboratory Information System is a computer program designed to manage all information related to laboratory test requests and the results of each test performed. Each one of the data of pending or performed tests, with its respective result, corresponds to a person or patient.

The program is capable of receiving laboratory orders, along with the necessary patient samples to be processed, and then recording each result, which will be archived in a computer database.

The other options are not correct because:

    B. Picture Archiving System: it is related to photographs related to a disease in each patient, especially of diagnostic imaging methods.

    C. Nursing Information System: it has to do with all the information related to the nurses' performance, organizing a record of all the professional activity that nurses perform in a hospital.

    D. Radiology Information System: it is a system that allows the registration of radiodiagnostic images, such as X-rays, tomography or nuclear magnetic resonance
