504 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p. 90-101) and index.
505 0 $aDream and reality: an introductory case : the importance of the preanalytical phase -- Biological influences -- Something unavoidable: influences of age, gender, race and pregnancy -- Changing habits: influences that can vary (diet, starvation, exercise, altitude) -- May I take coffee, smoke or drink before blood sampling? Stimulants and addictive drugs as biological influence factors -- What if I take herbs? Effects of herbs on laboratory results -- Collection of specimen -- When to test? Timing of sampling -- Sampling during infusion therapy? Sequence of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures -- Sampling in the supine or upright position? Effects of posture and tourniquet -- What site for sampling blood? Phlebotomy, arterial puncture and sampling from catheters -- Blood from the skin: capillary sampling -- Did the lab mix up my sample? Techniques of sample identification -- Precious sample: cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) -- Sample that is nearly always available: urine and saliva as diagnostic probes -- Plasma or serum? Differences to be considered -- Take a lavendar tube! Additives and colour codes -- Transport and storage -- Fax me a sample: effects of time and temperature during transport -- Samples in transit: legal standardiation for mailing samples -- How to keep a sample "fresh": storage of samples in the laboratory -- Preparation of samples for analysis -- What has to be done on specimen arrival? Specimen processing, centrifugation, distribution -- Continuous or batchwise? Preanalytical workflow and robotics -- Safety aspects during the preanalytical phase: disposal of specimens, needles, tubes and chemicals -- Special aspects with each analyte -- What is needed before blood transfusion? Special aspects in immuno-haematology -- Why a separate tube for the coagulation test? Special aspects in haemostaseology -- Blood cells are sensitive! Special aspects in haematological analysis -- Everything from a drop of blood? Special aspects in clinical chemistry -- Special tubes for hormones and proteomics? Preanalytical factors in immunoassays -- Blood cells can provide important information: special aspects in cellular analysis -- How to handle genes: special aspects in molecular biology -- When gases evaporate: special aspects for blood gases and ionized calcium -- Right time for drugs: special aspects in therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) -- Bacteria, fungi, parasites and viruses: special aspects in microbiology -- Endogenous and exogenous interferences -- Can turbid samples be used? Effects of lipaemia -- Difficult case: pitfalls with endogenous antibodies -- Serum sample looks reddish: effects of haemolysis -- Does the laboratory have to know all my drugs? Mechanisms and treatment of drug interference -- Everything under control? Quality assurance in the preanalytical phase.
