Techniques for handling messages in laboratory informatics
Various embodiments may be generally directed to techniques for handling messages in laboratory informatics, such as managing and viewing messages associated with a project that utilizes multiple laboratory data devices and/or applications, for instance. In many embodiments, managing the messages may include storage and retrieval of messages, creating and maintaining audit trails, as well as providing alerts based on the messages. In several embodiments, viewing the messages may include filtering and searching messages. Some embodiments may be particularly directed to managing and viewing messages associated with data devices used in conjunction with liquid chromatography and/or mass spectrometry.
1. An apparatus, the apparatus comprising:
a processor; and
memory comprising instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to:
identify a set of online messages associated with a liquid chromatography or mass spectrometry procedure;
determine one or more properties for each online message in the set of online messages;
archive at least one of the online messages as an offline message based on a first set of rules and one or more properties determined for the at least one of the online messages, the at least one of the online messages archived as an offline message stored in a dump file or an external table;
generate at least one immediate attention message based on a second set of rules and a respective one or more properties for a respective online message in the set of online messages; and
update an audit trail with the one or more properties for at least one of the set of online messages.
2. The apparatus of claim 1 , the memory comprising instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to determine one or more of the first set of rules or the second set of rules based on user input via a graphical user interface (GUI).
3. The apparatus of claim 1 , the memory comprising instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to generate a message tracking table comprising one or more characteristics for the at least one online message archived in the external table as the offline message.
4. The apparatus of claim 1 , the memory comprising instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to retrieve the at least one online message archived in the external table based on the one or more characteristics for the at least one online message archived in the external table as the offline message.
5. The apparatus of claim 1 , the memory comprising instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to receive the set of online messages from one or more laboratory data devices or applications.
6. The apparatus of claim 3 , the one or more laboratory data devices or applications utilized in conjunction with liquid chromatography or mass spectrometry.
7. The apparatus of claim 1 , the memory comprising instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to generate a single table with at least one of the set of online messages and the offline message archived in the external table.
8. The apparatus of claim 1 , the at least one immediate attention messages comprising an email, a text message, or a phone call.
9. At least one non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising a set of instructions that, in response to being executed by a processor circuit, cause the processor circuit to:
identify a set of online messages associated with a liquid chromatography or mass spectrometry procedure;
determine one or more properties for each online message in the set of online messages;
archive at least one of the online messages as an offline message based on a first set of rules and one or more properties determined for the at least one of the online messages, the at least one of the online messages archived as an offline message stored in a dump file or an external table;
generate at least one immediate attention message based on a second set of rules and a respective one or more properties for a respective online message in the set of online messages; and
update an audit trail with the one or more properties for at least one of the set of online messages.
10. The at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 9 , comprising instructions that, in response to being executed by the processor circuit, cause the processor circuit to determine one or more of the first set of rules or the second set of rules based on user input via a graphical user interface (GUI).
11. The at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 9 , comprising instructions that, in response to being executed by the processor circuit, cause the processor circuit to generate a message tracking table comprising one or more characteristics for the at least one online message archived in the external table as the offline message.
12. The at least one non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 9 , comprising instructions that, in response to being executed by the processor circuit, cause the processor circuit to retrieve the at least one online message archived in the external table based on the one or more characteristics for the at least one online message archived in the external table as the offline message.
13. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
identifying a set of online messages associated with a liquid chromatography or mass spectrometry procedure;
determining one or more properties for each online message in the set of online messages;
archiving at least one of the online messages as an offline message based on a first set of rules and one or more properties determined for the at least one of the online messages, the at least one of the online messages archived as an offline message stored in a dump file or an external table;
generating at least one immediate attention message based on a second set of rules and a respective one or more properties for a respective online message in the set of online messages; and
update an audit trail with the one or more properties for at least one of the set of online messages.
14. The computer-implemented method of claim 13 , comprising generating a message tracking table comprising one or more characteristics for the at least one online message archived in the external table as the offline message.
15. The computer-implemented method of claim 13 , comprising receiving the set of online messages from one or more laboratory data devices or applications.
16. The computer-implemented method of claim 13 , comprising generating a single table with at least one of the set of online messages and the offline message archived in the external table.
