How to build and use the SMS early-warning mechanism for critical laboratory results / 中华医院管理杂志

Thanks to the communication between hospital information systems and the mobile phone system,the doctor in charge can contact his/her patient by mobile phone.This creates an early warning mechanism for critical results of laboratory tests such as clinical laboratory,radiological,ultrasound and ECC tests,in which the doctor in charge can be advised immediately of any critical results found in laboratory tests by SMS.This mechanism enables clinicians to acquire critical information,identify medical risks and minimize medical errors.
