✦ Synopsis
Using a clinical laboratory computer system, software has been developed which checks to determine if the result of any test performed on a patient specimen may be affected by any drug administered to that same patient. If possible interference is detected, a comment is automatically attached to the result on the patient's computer-generated report warning the attending physician the result may be falsely elevated or lowered.
