For diagnostic laboratories, allergy season brings a surge in test requests, from IgE quantification to complex allergen panels. Managing this influx efficiently requires not only precise testing instruments but also smart data integration and secure connectivity.
This is where Phadia™ Laboratory Systems by Thermo Fisher Scientific excel. Available through The Science Support, Phadia™ systems offer laboratories not just advanced immunoassay automation but also the connectivity infrastructure needed to ensure speed, accuracy, and traceability — all crucial during high-demand allergy seasons.
Why Allergy Diagnostic Laboratories Need Data Integration
Modern allergy diagnostics rely on large datasets, from patient information to test results, assay calibration data, and quality control metrics. During peak testing periods, laboratories must process and store thousands of results daily, often across multiple instruments. Without seamless connectivity, this can lead to manual data entry errors, delays in result reporting, and inefficient sample and reagent tracking
Phadia™ systems are designed to address exactly these challenges by connecting seamlessly to your Laboratory Information System (LIS), Laboratory Automation System (LAS), and the Phadia™ LabCommunity cloud platform.
Phadia™ Systems Ensure Automated Workflow and Accurate Reporting
Phadia™ instruments integrate directly with LIS and LAS solutions, ensuring that every step of the testing workflow — from sample accessioning to final reporting — is fully automated.
Key benefits include:
- Centralized data management: All sample and result data are securely stored and synchronized across systems.
- Reduced manual intervention: Automated test requests, result transfers, and reagent tracking minimize human error.
- Faster turnaround times: Automated data flow accelerates result reporting to clinicians, especially when allergy testing peaks.
- Scalability: Multiple Phadia™ instruments can operate within the same network, making it easier to scale up during seasonal surges.
- Comprehensive interpretation: With the Phadia™ Xplain ICAP application, clinicians can generate clear patient reports for ImmunoCAP™ Specific IgE test results, including clinical implications, cross-reactivities, and information about allergens—all in an accessible format.
Phadia™ LabCommunity: Secure Collaboration Beyond the Lab
The Phadia™ LabCommunity is a cloud-based platform that connects laboratories worldwide, offering:
- Secure data sharing with encryption and role-based access control
- Real-time updates on assay performance, calibrations, and instrument status
- Access to global reference data, helping labs benchmark and maintain quality standards
This connectivity ecosystem helps laboratories stay agile and informed, even when managing thousands of allergy tests each day.
