Vanvitelli University Hospital cyberattack slows clinical laboratory workflows
A cyberattack starting 1 July 2023 disabled digital systems at Naples Vanvitelli University Hospital. Clinicians processed laboratory requests on paper, could not transfer results into electronic clinical files and restricted nonessential tests; the hospital medical director said analysis workflows took around 30% longer, although clinical services continued.
