## Meghna Bhat — Medical Laboratory Technologist, Haematology and Clinical Biochemistry

B.Sc MLT graduate with three years on diagnostic benches across haematology, biochemistry and blood bank. Resequenced the morning run at a 260-sample-a-day laboratory, taking haematology turnaround from 5 hours 20 minutes to 3 hours 5 minutes.

### Experience

**Medical Laboratory Technologist, Haematology**, Nirmalya Diagnostics · November 2024 – present

NABL-accredited reference laboratory. Runs a five-analyser haematology and biochemistry bench on the morning shift.

- Resequenced the morning run and moved calibration to the night shift, cutting haematology turnaround from 5 hours 20 minutes to 3 hours 5 minutes.
- Traced a recurring potassium drift to a single centrifuge rotor; replacing it ended 40 to 60 spurious haemolysis flags a month.
- Runs the daily Levey-Jennings review for 18 analytes and has held the bench inside two standard deviations on every quality assurance cycle for seven quarters.
- Wrote the peripheral smear reporting checklist six technologists now follow, which halved the smears sent back for re-staining.

**Laboratory Technologist (rotational intern, then technologist)**, Panchvati Speciality Hospital · July 2023 – October 2024

- Rotated through microbiology, histopathology, blood bank and biochemistry, completing 11 months of supervised bench work before taking an independent shift.
- Brought sample rejection at the phlebotomy counter from 4.1% to 1.3% by redrawing the tube-order chart and retraining 14 collection staff.
- Maintained the blood bank cross-match register for about 900 units a year with no clerical discrepancy across two internal audits.

### Education

- B.Sc. Medical Laboratory Technology · Manipal College of Health Professions, Manipal Academy of Higher Education · August 2020 – June 2023
- Pre-University (Science) Physics, Chemistry, Biology · St Aloysius Pre-University College · June 2018 – April 2020

### Skills

- **Bench work**: Automated haematology analysers, Peripheral smear morphology, Clinical biochemistry, Coagulation (PT/INR, aPTT), Urinalysis, Phlebotomy
- **Quality**: Levey-Jennings charts, Westgard rules, External quality assurance, ISO 15189 documentation, Calibration and maintenance logs
- **Systems and safety**: LIS entry and validation, Barcode sample tracking, Biomedical waste segregation, Spill and exposure protocol, Cold chain handling
