The C-SIC (COVID-Sample Information Collection) kit accurately captures specimen and patient information and ensures it is included on the sample label, preventing errors during sampling and transport. The 2D-coded label is then scanned at the laboratory to bring up the correct registration, and accessioned for testing.
No hand-written information is required. The kit scans the patient's driver's license or other official ID at point of collection. The information is instantly uploaded to a secure, HIPAA-compliant cloud database, ready for laboratory access.
Pre-analytical sample handling, including initial sample collection, transport and lab handling, can account for up to 68% of errors according to a recent paper. With accurate testing being the crucial, central element in dealing with the current pandemic — as well as any potential future ones — it is imperative that every possible measure be taken to ensure reliable results. The C-SiC kit, along with the overall COVIDLiMS informatics solution, significantly reduces this alarming risk factor.
