ADLM Annual Scientific Meeting & Clinical Lab Expo

Roche Idea Lab 2024

Roche presented eight Roche Idea Lab segments in the booth, in which experts discussed topics such as mass spectrometry, digital solutions, point of care, respiratory and STI testing, and the use of high-medical-value assays when treating Alzheimer’s disease, heart failure, and preeclampsia.

We gladly present replays of all the Roche Idea Lab sessions from ADLM 2024.

Digital Solutions Unlock New Possibilities for Better Care

Artificial intelligence can assist in fostering a holistic approach to better care that moves beyond transactional operations. Hear the Roche-moderated conversation with Peter McCaffrey, chief AI officer for the University of Texas Medical Branch, on how navify® and other AI-driven solutions can unlock possibilities with cutting-edge algorithms.

Testing for Heart Failure in People with Diabetes: What Do the New ADA Guidelines Mean for Labs?

Imagine a world where people with diabetes don’t experience heart failure progression — it could become a reality. In this video, Ibrahim A. Hashim, M.Sc., Ph.D., C.Sci., FIBMS, DABCC, FAACC, UT Southwestern Medical Center, discusses how to put the American Diabetes Association’s recommendation for heart failure risk monitoring in all people with diabetes into practice.

According to Dr. Hashim, subclinical (asymptomatic) heart failure is reversible, preventable and treatable. Laboratories are at the interface between patients and biomarker evaluation. Learn more about how the laboratory can be at the forefront of screening implementation, and how collaboration to conduct cardiac biomarker testing sooner can potentially save many from experiencing the devastating effects of heart failure.

Making Patient Impact with Ions: A Conversation on the Medical Value of Mass Spectrometry

Mass spectrometry is a powerful tool for the clinical laboratory, notably for its high sensitivity, specificity and accuracy for better patient care. These strengths support mass spectrometry as the gold standard for many analytes and a main driver for adoption in the clinical laboratory. This Roche Idea Lab session features a conversation with Victoria Zhang, Ph.D., MBA, DABCC, University of Rochester Medical Center, on the medical value of mass spectrometry and provides specific case examples related to patient outcomes.

Improving Access and Patient Outcomes for Sexually Transmitted Infections

Effective and integrated point-of-care testing and treatment are essential to curb transmission rates for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) like chlamydia, gonorrhea and syphilis. Delve into a Roche-moderated conversation with Barbara Van Der Pol, MPH, Ph.D., University of Alabama at Birmingham, and Casey Pinto, Ph.D., NP, Penn State University, on the lab’s role in STIs, lifting stigma and how to talk to patients about STIs.

Are You Listening? The Black Pregnant Woman's Instincts and Preeclampsia

Black mothers are at a higher risk of developing pregnancy-related complications and hypertensive disorders, such as preeclampsia. Sarosh Rana, M.D., MPH, FACOG, University of Chicago Medicine, discusses the Black woman's experience with healthcare and the role diagnostics can play in improving outcomes for preeclampsia patients.

Learn more about the complexity of diagnosing and managing preeclampsia and how and when to put preeclampsia biomarkers — such as the SFlt-1/PlGF ratio — into practice based on both real-world and research-based evidence.

To learn more about the importance of diagnosing preeclampsia, watch Chaniece’s Story.

Current and Future Biomarker Testing Landscape in Alzheimer’s Disease

In this session, Leslie Shaw, Ph.D., University of Pennsylvania, discusses how the availability of Alzheimer's biomarkers in CSF and blood is revolutionizing the diagnostic path. Early detection of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology can occur in vivo using fluid biomarkers and/or Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. The FDA approved/cleared cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) ratios can detect AD amyloid pathology early in the disease and correlate with amyloid PET. With the availability of amyloid removal therapies, which slow down cognitive decline, it is expected that laboratories will be faced with increased requests for AD testing.

Steps to Growing your Lab

From declining reimbursements to increasing business expenses and staff shortages, today’s diagnostic laboratories face pressures from all directions. However, lab managers and leaders can maximize efficiency and help improve the bottom line in many ways. Steve Serota and Robin Herbner at Wisconsin Diagnostic Laboratories share ideas on how labs can remain competitive by utilizing existing capacity and improving access for patients in support of optimized clinical care.

Advancing Respiratory Testing Across the Continuum of Care

Leaders from Vanderbilt Health discuss their organization's strategies to implement tenets of diagnostic stewardship into their respiratory testing algorithms to improve patient care. Learn from David C. Gaston, M.D., Ph.D., and Alisa Ezell, MHA, MLS (ASCP)CM, on how they did it.
