Summary:
With ABCA, multiple blood samples (50 to 60) were being investigated in one go. With this kit, ABCA was being used till ten days ago and the patients used to get reports on the same day. The automatic blood chemistry analyzer (ABCA), which was installed in the clinical pathology department for rapid blood investigation on March 25 this year, is not being used for lack of reagent since one week. The hospital administration was informed several times that ABCA would stop working as and when the reagents in the kit finish. DARBHANGA: Unavailability of reagent, a substance or mixture for use in chemical analysis or other reactions, has hampered pathological investigation at Darbhanga Medical College and Hospital ( DMCH ).The pathological investigation process is so slow at the DMCH that patients get their reports three days after providing blood samples for investigation..
