Webinar | 28th May 2024

The Pre-Analytical Phase is one of the phases with the highest impact on the accuracy of lab tests results.

Lab tests are a first-line, central diagnostic tool with a decisive role in patient management and therapeutic follow-up.

To deliver the most accurate results, all phases of test execution, especially pre-analytical, must be conducted following the necessary technical procedures to ensure high quality care and patient safety

In this webinar, dedicated exclusively to Affidea Teams, current certification and accreditation recommendations on strategies for reducing pre-analytical errors in Laboratory Medicine will be addressed. The experience from the Affidea Teams in the countries with strong lab activity and their partners is an added value for a deeper understanding of this subject.
