Item Development of a Computerized Hospital Laboratory Operations’ Support System(Lead City University, 2022-12) Abiodun Timothy ADEGBIJIManual hospital laboratory operation system is characterized with lack of prompt retrieval of Information which result in time wastage, loss of information, misplacement and misallocation of results. To proffer solution to the aforementioned problems, the research study developed a computerized hospital laboratory operation support application which is aimed at using information technology to solve the problems associated with manual method of Hospital Laboratory Information System. The system is a web based model built on laravel 7.29 and a WAMP (Windows, Apache, MySQL, PHP) server. A total of 4 laboratories were visited (2 government owned and 2 private laboratories) to collect various types of tests being carried out in the laboratories through ethical approval using the conventional and the developed systems. During the implementation of the developed system at Oyo state hospital management laboratory in Oyo and Ibadan, the system was installed unto the hospital laboratories’ database and subsequently utilized for registration of patients data and processed data. The result obtained showed that 65% of the respondents who were tested with the developed system used between 30-45 minutes and 48% used between 46- 60minutes while 88% that used the manual system used between 2-8hours before the result was ready.The adoption of this research will greatly allow prompt release of test results retrieval of Information, reduce patient test time wastage, give accurate laboratory test result, reduce loss of vital information, reduce misplacement of test results and reduce misallocation of test results to the barest minimum, if not totally eradicated.
