TI  - Laboratory information management system: an example of international cooperation 
      in Namibia.
PG  - 241-51
AB  - The authors describe the project undertaken by the Istituto G. Caporale to 
      provide a laboratory information management system (LIMS) to the Central 
      Veterinary Laboratory (CVL) in Windhoek, Namibia. This robust laboratory 
      management tool satisfies Namibia's information obligations under international 
      quality standard ISO 17025:2005. The Laboratory Information Management System 
      (LIMS) for Africa was designed to collect and manage all necessary information on 
      samples, tests and test results. The system involves the entry of sample data on 
      arrival, as required by Namibian sampling plans, the tracking of samples through 
      the various sections of the CVL, the collection of test results, generation of 
      test reports and monitoring of outbreaks through data interrogation functions, 
      eliminating multiple registrations of the same data on paper records. It is a 
      fundamental component of the Namibian veterinary information system.
