Consistently achieving optimal blood culture volumes is essential for accurate diagnostics, yet laboratories often struggle with variability caused by multiple collection sites, diverse staff practices, and time constraints. These challenges can lead to underfilled bottles and compromise patient care. In this webinar, Grant Johnson will share how Lakeridge Health addressed these obstacles through a combined approach of innovative device design and data-driven performance monitoring. This discussion will focus on the role of design innovations in reducing variability in blood culture collection and the impact of real-time analytics on performance oversight. By combining these strategies, Lakeridge Health was able to identify gaps, implement corrective actions, and sustain compliance, ultimately driving improvements in diagnostic reliability and patient outcomes.
