Powerful diagnostic innovations with the most comprehensive automated laboratory testing

MedLabs Consultancy Group, one of the largest networks of medical laboratories in the region accredited by the College of American Pathologists (CAP) and ISO15189, and the only lab to have introduced a fully-automated reference laboratory in the Kingdom covering all phases of the testing process: pre-analytics, analytics, and post-analytics, now brings you the Cobas PRO. Powered by Roche Diagnostics, this powerful diagnostic innovation will further enable MedLabs to deliver high-quality patient results in the shortest time possible and boost the capabilities of its operations which is considered a reference site for its network of more than 50 laboratories in Jordan, Palestine and Iraq and over 150 referring laboratories in Jordan, KSA, UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, and Pakistan.

The greater efficiency of a fully connected and automated reference laboratory holds the promise of better patient outcomes as it enables timely clinical decisions upon receiving utmost accurate test results with speed, safety and reliability. Moreover, the cutting-edge technologies of the Cobas PRO newly-installed at MedLabs will also advance clinical decision-making due to the breadth of the disease areas it covers including but not limited to; infectious diseases, bone health, and fertility.  Given the critical role diagnostics plays in the overall healthcare chain, these investments will greatly improve the journey of patient management and contribute to the reduction of the overall cost of treatment.

Dr. George Sahyoun, Chief Scientific Officer and Director of MedLabs’ Reference Laboratory, commented: “The concept of lab automation is becoming increasingly important and continues to grow. Roche’s personalized lab automation systems offer customized solutions for any type or size of laboratory. With about 70% of physicians’ medical decisions influenced by laboratory results, our significant investment into a completely automated system minimizing the risk of human errors, highlights our commitment to deliver high-quality care to patients and to offer fast and accurate, results to doctors. We are proud to bring the latest technologies to Jordan and remain committed to elevating patient care in the Kingdom and upholding the highest standards of quality in every way. The Cobas PRO is the latest addition to the Roche portfolio and we are proud to be the first laboratory to introduce it in Jordan”.
