The lab needs to tract every focal occult blood test strip !
If you damage one and don’t use it.. don’t throw in the garbage but return to the lab.
They need to account for every strip they buy and disperse in the hospital. All this means is each test will have a reference number on it and each test will soon have a sheet of paper attached to it.
Use the test as you want clinically. Develop it. Discard test card. Fill in the sheet attached to the test card and send it to the lab!!
This will get the test in the patients electronic chart and satisfy the lab regulatory body!!
We have to do this so our lab is following best practice. Its not an option.
thank you all,
John
