About BD Synapsys™ Informatics Solution

Microbiology laboratories play a key role in infectious disease management. At the same time, they face a growing list of challenges, including lab consolidation, increased regulations, decreasing reimbursements and a shortage of skilled staff. That task is complicated by inherent obstacles such as manual processes, the lack of integrated workflows, disparate IT systems and difficulties accessing data.

The BD Synapsys™ Informatics Solution enables laboratories to address these challenges and improve laboratory outcomes. 

Streamlined. Smart. Scalable.

The BD Synapsys™ Informatics Solution is an efficient, streamlined software solution that helps laboratories to flexibly organize their workflow tasks for efficient and streamlined use of available resources.

Smart software tools help empower data-driven clinical and operational decision making, with flexibility to adapt and scale to changing lab needs, which may help to impact turnaround time, improve productivity and simplify compliance.

BD Synapsys™ Solution enables the benefits of informatics across one or more lab locations in your network, with anywhere, anytime, access to data. The solution helps the lab to easily add instrument capacity and capability to your lab without adding IT and LIS complexity. It is designed to support data security and privacy standards which may help labs comply with their organizational IT policies.

Challenges of bloodstream infection diagnostics

Monitoring, analyzing and communicating microbiology data in a timely manner can directly impact patient care. However, obtaining, organizing and communicating this information can be labor intensive.2,3 In addition, multiple means to obtain blood culture-related data exist, but it can be difficult to access or synthesize this information to uncover insights.

It is estimated that 23% of clinical errors occur in the post-analytical phase of testing, in part due to improper validation of analytical data, failure in reporting and inappropriate follow up plans.4,5
