MOBILE WEB APP & PHLEBOTOMY TRACKER

LIMS IQ provides mobile tools for collectors to check in patients, print labels, and track custody in the field.

  • Mobile Web App
  • Barcode Label Printing
  • Route Optimization
  • Offline Mode
Accurate collections Verify patient identity, requisitions, and tube types at the point of draw to reduce mislabels and redraws in the field.
Real-time custody Capture custody handoffs as collectors move from patient to courier to lab so specimen status is visible without phone calls.
Works offline Continue collecting in low-connectivity homes, nursing facilities, and remote sites; data syncs automatically when the device reconnects.

Key Capabilities

6 capabilities

Explore the core capabilities available for this laboratory workflow.

Digital Check-In

Verify patient identity and requisitions at the point of collection.

Barcode Label Printing

Print tube and specimen labels on site to reduce label-selection and patient-matching risk.

Route Optimization

Pair the collector queue with the LIS dispatcher for route assignment.

Chain-of-Custody Tracking

Log custody events in real time from collection to lab receipt.

Offline Mode

Capture data in low-connectivity settings and sync when online.

Real-Time Status

Monitor collector progress, collection status, and custody events.

Frequently asked questions

5 answers on file
Q01

Does the mobile phlebotomy tracker support route optimization?

Yes. LIMS IQ pairs each phlebotomist's daily queue with the dispatcher in the LIS for route assignment. Collectors see stops by client, site, date, and status, with patient addresses and one-tap map navigation. Dispatch sees collection status in real time, and collectors can also self-assign stops.
Q02

What happens when the mobile app loses connectivity?

The mobile app supports low-connectivity collection work. Collectors can capture the registration, specimen, and custody information needed for the draw while offline, and the app syncs those records to LIMS IQ when it is online again.
Q03

Can phlebotomists print barcoded labels in the field?

Yes. Phlebotomists scan the patient's confirmation barcode or search by confirmation number or ID, verify demographics, and review the requisition. They can then scan specimen barcodes with automatic duplicate checks, record collection date and source, and print labels and requisition forms on site.
Q04

How is custody transferred when specimens reach the lab?

Collectors log custody events from collection through lab receipt in real time. Because the mobile app connects to the same LIS, the lab receives the collection record, specimen details, and custody history in the operational workflow used for accessioning and tracking.
Q05

What happens when a collector cannot complete a draw?

The collector records a predefined unable-to-collect reason in the mobile queue. From there, the stop can be rescheduled or sent back to the dispatcher, so the exception remains visible instead of disappearing from the day's collection work.
