    AbstractFollowing the accreditation of this hospital as an Emergency and Critical Care Center and the subsequent establishment of an emergency intensive care unit in April 2013, walk-in patients of the Emergency Department now total over 60,000 annually, with 10,000 arriving by ambulance. Out-of-hours medical laboratory services in this hospital commenced in 1972, providing services including blood analysis and blood product provision. Since the establishment of the Emergency and Critical Care Center, an increase in the number of severe cases has also led to an increase in blood transfusions, requiring a specialized response from the Medical Laboratory. We describe measures taken by the Medical Laboratory to continue ongoing laboratory support of the Emergency Department. [Review].
