Hospital laboratory services is one of the activities in hospitals that support quality health services. One indicator of the success of health services in the field of clinical pathology laboratory services is the waiting time for laboratory services. The standard set for laboratory service outcome waiting time is ≤ 140 minutes for blood chemistry and routine blood. This research analyzed the service time of outpatient laboratory that conducted hematology and clinical chemistry examination in the laboratory of Pasaman Barat Hospital. This research is a type of descriptive analytic research that is quantitative and supported by qualitative using cross sectional approach. The result of the research showed that laboratory service time at RSUD Pasaman Barat fulfilled the standard (≤ 140 minutes) for hematology examination 33.94 minutes, clinical chemistry 83.92 minutes, hematology and clinical chemistry 98 minutes. Based on the results of this study, the stages that contribute to the length of time laboratory services for hematological examination lies in the pre analytical stage, for clinical chemistry examination is located at the analytical stage, as well as for hematology and clinical chemistry examination lies in the analytic stage as well as the factors that affect the length of time laboratory services are human resources that is in the ability of officers and infrastructure facilities

Falconry is a long-standing tradition in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and in 2016, falconry was included by UNESCO in the list of intangible cultural heritage of humanity. The health and wellness of falconry raptors is a priority for the local culture; plasma chemistry analysis plays an important role in monitoring, assessing, and managing diseases in avian patients. Imbalances of Cu, Mg, and Zn have been linked to several diseases in avian species; therefore, determining the reference intervals (RIs) of these minerals has important implications in the clinical management of falcons. We determined the RIs in plasma for Cu, Mg, and Zn in captive (falconry-managed) falcons according to the Quality Assurance and Laboratory Standards Committee of the American Society for Veterinary Clinical Pathology, and the Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute guidelines. Blood chemistry analyses were carried out on 252 clinically healthy falcons examined at the Dubai Falcon Hospital in the UAE: 124 gyrfalcons ( Falco rusticolus) and 128 falcons of other species. We observed no significant variation in RIs of Cu (1.5–7.0 µmol/L), Mg (0.49–0.78 mmol/L), or Zn (11.8–34.1 µmol/L) based on different species or sex.

The role of electron microscopy and associated techniques is assured in diagnostic pathology. At the present time, most of the progress has been made on tissues examined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and correlated with light microscopy (LM) and by cytochemistry using both plastic and paraffin-embedded materials. As mentioned elsewhere in this symposium, this has revolutionized many fields of pathology including diagnostic, anatomic and clinical pathology. It began with the kidney; however, it has now been extended to most other organ systems and to tumor diagnosis in general. The results of the past few years tend to indicate the future directions and needs of this expanding field. Now, in addition to routine EM, pathologists have access to the many newly developed methods and instruments mentioned below which should aid considerably not only in diagnostic pathology but in investigative pathology as well.

A method is described in an attempt to make medical records suitable for epidemiologigri: purposes. Every case of a disease is recorded on an appropriate punched card with the object of working towards a general description of a disease through the collation of several cases of the same diagnosis. This punched card represents a very great condensation of the original record. Special care has been applied to state as precisely as possible the time variable, particularly as far as its origin and unit of measure are concerned, in order to demonstrate the existence of causal relations between diseases. Such cards are also intended to make easier statistical studies in clinical pathology, in evaluation of new laboratory techniques, and in therapeutical trials.
