Moderator: João Tiago Guimarães (PT)
Recorded on 21st November 2017.
European National Societies, members of EFLM, have agreed in Porto, during the 3rd EFLM-BD European Preanalytical Phase Conference that harmonization of preanalytical practices and policies is necessary and possible in each and every country in Europe as well as internationally, at the European level. The Working group for Preanalytical phase (WG-PRE) of the European Federation for Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (EFLM), has taken the leading role in this process.
The aim of this e-seminar is to present past, ongoing and future WG-PRE activities and various projects which aim is to improve the quality of preanalytical phase in Europe as well as to promote wide harmonization of preanalytical practices, patient safety improvement and reduction of unnecessary waste and healthcare expenses.
