Popis: This study compared laboratory risk and turn-around time (TAT) between sequence-based typing (SBT) and next-generation sequencing (NGS) for human leukocyte antigen (HLA) typing. For risk assessment, we utilized the risk priority number (RPN) score based on failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) and a risk acceptability matrix (RAM) according to the Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) guidelines (EP23-A). Total TAT was documented for the analytical phase, and hands-on time was defined as manual processes conducted by medical technicians. NGS showed a significantly higher total RPN score than SBT (1169 vs. 465). NGS indicated a higher mean RPN score, indicating elevated severity and detectability scores in comparison to SBT (RPN 23 vs. 12, p = 0.001; severity 5 vs. 3, p = 0.005; detectability 5 vs. 4, p < 0.001, respectively). NGS required a greater number of steps than SBT (44 vs. 25 steps), all of which were acceptable for the RAM. NGS showed a longer total TAT, total hands-on time, and hands-on time per step than SBT (26:47:20 vs. 12:32:06, 03:59:35 vs. 00:47:39, 00:05:13 vs. 00:01:54 hh:mm:ss, respectively). Transitioning from SBT to NGS for HLA typing involves increased risk and an extended TAT. This study underscored the importance of evaluating these factors to optimize laboratory efficiency in HLA typing.
