[Case Study] Digital Transformation in Lomé: Automating Laboratory Operations
Lomé, Togo – A major public hospital in Togo’s capital has successfully completed a comprehensive digital transformation of its laboratory operations, marking a significant milestone in the country’s healthcare modernization efforts.
The Challenge
The hospital’s laboratory, one of the largest in Togo, faced operational bottlenecks due to manual processes and disconnected medical analyzers. The need for a unified, automated system was critical to improve turnaround times, reduce errors, and enhance patient care.
The Solution
Over a focused four-week mission, our team deployed a complete laboratory automation solution:
- Prolab LIS Cloud: A cloud-based Laboratory Information System providing centralized management of all lab operations
- Yoctobe Middleware: Seamless integration layer connecting the LIS with laboratory equipment
- Five Medical Analyzer Integrations: Full bidirectional connectivity with existing laboratory instruments
The Impact
The implementation eliminated manual data entry, automated result transmission, and created a unified workflow across all analyzers. Laboratory staff received comprehensive training, ensuring confident adoption of the new system. Complete documentation and ongoing support guarantee sustainability and continuous improvement.
This project demonstrates how targeted digital solutions can transform healthcare delivery in resource-limited settings, setting a benchmark for laboratory modernization across West Africa.
