Data Innovations has changed the requirements around time changes for versions 8,07 and higher. After careful consideration we no longer require sites to manually change the system time or turn off IM/Cache during the time change, as we have confirmed that there are no risks prevented by those processes. This means that...
Instrument Manager uses mapping as a mechanism for translating information between the LIS and instruments. This mapping can apply to four types of data elements: fluid codes, test codes, error codes, and/or instrument IDs. Not every driver supports all four data elements, but test code mapping is typically supported. Aqui...
An auto-failover is triggered if the Acting-Primary or Arbiter determine that a primary can no longer function. The most common reasons are: The Acting-Primary lost contact with the Failover and Arbiter, but the Failover and Arbiter maintained contact with each other The Acting Primary runs into a critical problem, such as an...
Data Innovations develops drivers that are instrument model and vendor specific. With a driver library of over 1000 drivers, most Data Innovations drivers have been developed based on exact specifications from vendors. Within the clinical laboratory and beyond, custom or specialty software and instrumentation may exist where customers reference the...

In a joint alert sent on outubro 28th, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services said they have "credible information" that cybercriminals are taking new aim at healthcare providers and public health agencies even as the coronavirus...
This guide describes the test code mapping required to report the interpreted results (POS/NEG) for the SARSCOV2, FLUA, FLUB, and RSV tests, as well as how to send an order for the panel from your LIS/EMR. This document assumes that the Cepheid GeneXpert is configured with the default codes as...
Instrument testing can be a touchy subject. All labs are concerned about downtime. The purpose of this document is to provide the beginning of a discussion between the people doing the testing, and the lab techs responsible for getting results out the door. Testing for a new system eventually means testing...
