Client Profile

Centre Pasteur is one of the leading public health institutions in Central Africa, supporting infectious disease surveillance, diagnostics, and laboratory medicine.

Challenge

The laboratory needed a modern Laboratory Information System (LIS) to streamline operations, support complex workflows, and enable integration with diagnostic analysers. Their main challenge was maintaining efficiency while ensuring accuracy across high-volume laboratory processes.

Solution

Yoctobe’s comprehensive approach included:

• Core System Implementation: Deployed Prolab LIS Silver as the central laboratory information system
• Custom Development: Created tailored modules specific to Centre Pasteur’s operational needs, including result validation workflows and reporting capabilities
• Workflow Configuration: Configured end-to-end laboratory flows to accurately reflect real diagnostic processes from sample reception through result release
• Analyser Integration: Connected two medical analysers directly to Prolab LIS, enabling automated data capture and eliminating transcription errors

Impact

The implementation delivered significant improvements across multiple areas:

Operational Excellence

• Reduced manual data entry errors by over 70%
• Improved turnaround times for patient results through streamlined workflows

Public Health Enhancement

• Strengthened the institution’s ability to track and report on infectious disease trends with greater accuracy
• Enhanced surveillance capabilities for Central Africa’s public health needs

Future-Ready Foundation

• Provided a scalable LIS foundation ready for future expansion
• Established robust infrastructure to support growing laboratory demands

Key Outcomes

Centre Pasteur now operates with a modern, efficient laboratory system that supports their critical role in Central African public health surveillance while maintaining the highest standards of accuracy and reliability.
