Areas of focus are discussed on B2B market scenarios and cloud-based opportunities. The summary emphasizes Contoso's next-generation data architecture and great team behind their product.
3. Introduction
1. Labeling. Appropriate information is critical to proper processing of test requests. Although pertinent clinical information is highly desirable, if it is not available, please provide at least the following information.
a. Patient's name
b. Source of specimen or collection site
c. Date
d. Specimen and lesion status
e. Test desired
2. Obtain specimen correctly.
a. Explain completely to the patient.
b. Use a sterile container.
c. Label correctly and send the specimen to the laboratory promptly.
d. Avoid contamination of the container.
Note: Please examine specimen collection and transportation supplies to be sure they do not include expired containers.
3. Timing of collection.
a. Sputum, urine, stool, etc. are best collected in early morning and sent to the laboratory the same day.
b. Blood
• A blood culture requires two bottles of blood—one for aerobic and one for anaerobic culture. Each blood culture should be collected from a separate venipuncture.
• Collect blood specimens before antimicrobial treatment is initiated, if possible.
• Collect two or three sets early in the illness; repeat if they are negative after 48 hours of growth.
• Organisms are continuously shed during intravascular infections, such as endocarditis, but they are intermittently shed during occult infections. In some instances of occult infection, there is a predictable fever pattern. If this is the case, the blood for culture is
best collected 30 minutes prior to the fever spike.
• The yield beyond three or four cultures is minimal in most circumstances, and collection of more than this is discouraged.
• Virtually any organism, including normal flora, can cause bacteremia. A negative culture result does not necessarily rule out bacteremia; false-negative results occur when pathogens fail to grow. A positive culture result does not necessarily indicate
bacteremia; false-positive results occur when contaminants grow. Gram-negative bacilli, anaerobes, and fungi should be considered pathogens until proven otherwise. The most difficult interpretation problem is to determine whether an organism that is usually considered normal skin flora is a
true pathogen.
