Abstract:
As an on-site inspection team leader, I have joined the inspection on the clinical laboratories in six hospitals designed especially 2008 Olympic game organized by China National Laboratory Accreditation Committee (ISO15189 Accreditation). Two years' preparation promotes the standization, skill, management and academic level of these laboratories and boost the development 2-3 years forward. But there still were some deficiencies in the cell morphological examination including: ( 1 ) Low ratio of blood smear check when machine was used for hematological analysis; (2) Lack of criteria for blood smear check ; (3) Low capability of identification of cell; (4) Lack of personnel for microscopic examination. The reasons causing above deficiencies were concluded as follows: (1) The lab director did not pay sufficient attention to the morphological examination;(2)The technicians were unable to perform microscopic examination properly due to the heavy workload and lack of personnel; (3) The technicians were unable to use machine correctly as screening tool. So I put forward some measures for improvement of morphological examination. These measures included: (1) strengthening the propaganda on the importance of morphology examination and training the new stuffs; (2) Renovating the concept and improving the skill of lab technicians.
