How autoverification through the expert system VALAB can make your laboratory more efficient

Abstract For over 10 years now various expert systems have been on the market, but very few have reached the level of performance of Validation Assistée pour les Laboratoires d’Analyses Biologiques (VALAB). Over 25,000 rules are combined through an inference engine to reproduce human reasoning in the complex ”biological validation” process. After a review of the product concept and its development program, we will see how this ”intelligent” tool can bring quality to clinical laboratories, from a production as well as legislation point of view. With more than 140 laboratories using VALAB in Europe in daily routines, our designer and vendor experience in installation, maintenance, upgrading, reliability, efficiency, and liability is excellent.
