All these specialities provide a qualitative and quantitative analysis of blood and various body fluids, enabling Clinicians to come to a diagnosis. The greatest emphasis has been given to ensure accuracy, precision reproducibility and speedy reporting. The laboratories are equipped with state-of-the-art equipment. To operate these sophisticated gadgets the laboratories have a team of efficient, motivated, and qualified Doctors and technical staff who are constantly involved in producing effective results and upholding quality assurance. All the blood samples of Laboratory investigations are collected using the system of collection, which avoids contamination, thus any gross error. The laboratories at Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences, Patna aims to provide round the clock services i.e. 24 hrs a day, 365 days in a year to patients. Biochemistry Lab: The Department of Biochemistry of Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences, Patna is a third generation laboratory, backed by a highly qualified and motivated team of Doctors and Technical staff. It is well equipped with the latest state of the art technology, to perform the routine biochemical test for patients and starting a wide variety of super-specialized investigations, such as Tumor markers, Therapeutic Drug Monitoring including Cyclosporin, Immunoglobulins, Immunofixation Electrophoresis, Osmolality, Iron deficiency panel, Stone analysis soon. To name a few sophisticated types of equipment, the department has “Olympus” make Fully Automated Random Access Autoanalyzer with stat facility capable of doing Spectrophotometric and Immunoturbidimetric analysis of various analytes, Smart -lab, an automatic batch analyzer with the latest technology. Blood Gas analyzer, Electrolytes analyzer(ISE methods), Electrophoresis with Densitometer, Osmometer, Photometers, UV-VIS Spectrophotometer etc, tests are done within a very short period of time, requiring minimum sample volume. Special emphasis is being given on daily quality controls i.e. Internal Quality control as well as External Quality control, by participating in different International Quality controls Programmes, namely EQAS run by CMC, Vellore. Quality control standards are maintained as per WHO recommendations. The reagents kits used for various analysis are selected on a quality basis. Hematology Lab: The laboratory is equipped with completely automated instruments, semi-automated instruments, cell counters for carrying out routine haematological investigations such as haemoglobin, total and differential leucocyte counts, platelets count, red cell indices etc. accurately, The laboratory carries out complete work up Acute and Chronic Leukemias. This enables complete labelling of leukaemias and thus helps in deciding the treatment and predicting the prognosis. The Laboratory also carries out complete workup of Anaemia including Thalassaemias. The Laboratory is using highly sensitive kits for PT and PTT on a fully automated coagulation system. Bone marrow aspirates are carried out by the Haematology department to ensure adequate collection of samples. The laboratory maintains a high degree of internal and external quality control. Microbiology Lab: The Department of Microbiology at Institute provides accurate and reproducible results on clinical material within the shortest possible time. This has been achieved by round the clock laboratory services, Blood culture on an automated system for aerobic and anaerobic bacteria, fungi of different strains. Identification and sensitivity of most of the organism grown could be reported in a short span of time. Thus organisms causing life-threatening infections resulting in bacteremia could not only be grown, but their identification & sensitivity would also be available in shortest possible time, which would help greatly in the institution of early specific antimicrobial therapy. Conventional culture for aerobic and anaerobic bacteria, fungi and amoebae from clinical specimen other than blood is carried out on most appropriate media in a controlled environment.
