Laboratories play a critical role throughout the healthcare journey. More than 70% of clinical decisions are influenced by laboratory results. At the same time, laboratories are facing growing sample volumes, increasing expectations around speed and quality, and a rising need for integrated digital workflows.
By seamlessly embedding the LIS within the broader healthcare journey, a connected digital environment is created that unifies data, workflows and collaboration across the care continuum. Laboratory data becomes an active contributor to patient care, supporting diagnosis, treatment and follow-up while directly enabling better clinical decision-making, more efficient collaboration and higher-quality of care.
Driven by this shared vision, Clinique Saint-Luc Bouge and Nexuzhealth have chosen a partnership that extends beyond traditional software implementation. Together, both organisations aim to build a connected laboratory platform in which laboratory data is integrated faster, more intelligently and more securely throughout the entire care journey.
A key element of the partnership is its co-creation model, through which Nexuzhealth and Clinique Saint-Luc Bouge will work closely together on the continued development and refinement of the platform.
This approach ensures that the LIS remains closely aligned with the operational reality of the laboratory, while providing the flexibility to respond to future developments in healthcare and embedding innovation into day-to-day operations.
The partnership covers the entire lifecycle of the platform, from development and implementation to hosting, support and continuous long-term optimisation.
The laboratory at Clinique Saint-Luc Bouge processes approximately 1,500 patient records every day for both hospitalised and ambulatory patients. Around 75 laboratory professionals will work with the new platform.
With Nexuzhealth Lab, Clinique Saint-Luc Bouge is investing in a cloud-native LIS platform that accelerates innovation while supporting the laboratory’s operational continuity. Built on a modern technology platform, securely hosted and fully aligned with healthcare regulatory requirements, the solution is designed to evolve continuously alongside the needs of the laboratory. This enables the organisation to adapt quickly to changing demands, seamlessly integrate new innovations, including AI-applications, and maintain efficient, high-performing operations. For patients, this translates into faster, more reliable results and even better coordinated care.
Its modern architecture enables upgrades without laboratory downtime, while new functionalities can be deployed more rapidly. The platform also supports today's cybersecurity and compliance requirements.
Nexuzhealth remains committed to connecting healthcare stakeholders through one integrated ecosystem, enabling laboratories to evolve from supporting services into a central strategic pillar within the healthcare journey.
Clinique Saint-Luc Bouge is a general hospital with 302 accredited beds for internal medicine and surgery, complemented by 24 day-hospital beds. The hospital offers a wide range of outpatient consultations both on its main campus and across 16 additional consultation sites. For many years, Clinique Saint-Luc Bouge has positioned itself as a forward-thinking healthcare institution, combining high-quality care with a people-centred approach while continuously investing in modernisation and innovative medical technologies.
