def get_lab_request(self, pk=None, req_id=None, lab=None):
        ...
        req = gmPathLab.cLabRequest(aPKey=pk, req_id=req_id, lab=lab)
        replaced by -> req = 
cClinItemFactory.createClinicalItem('lab_request', aPKey=pk, req_id=req_id, 
lab=lab)
#-----------------------
def get_lab_results(self):
        ...
        self.__db_cache['lab 
results'].append(gmPathLab.cLabResult(aPKey=row[0]))
        replaceb by ->     self.__db_cache['lab_results']. 
append(cClinItemFactory.createClinicalItem('lab_results', aPKey=row[0])
        ...

.Then, cClinItemFactory.createClinicalItem, according item_type param, would 
instantiate and return the adecuate object..

...although  i'm not really sure if we gain much advantage comparing ordinary 
construction method... just an idea... O:)
