Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This forth updated edition contains the latest developments in analytical techniques. An international team of authors summarizes the information on biological influences, analytical interferences and on the variables affecting the collection, transport and storage as well as preparation of samples. They cover age, gender, race, pregnancy, diet, exercise and altitude, plus the effects of stimulants and drugs. National and international standards are described for sampling procedures, transport, sample identification and all safety aspects, while quality assurance procedures are shown for total laboratory management. In addition, the authors provide a glossary as well as a separate list of analytes containing the available data on reference intervals, biological half-life times, stability and influence and interference factors. For everyone involved in patient care and using or performing laboratory tests.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here, an international team of authors summarizes the information related to biological influences, analytical interferences and on the variables affecting the collection, transport and storage as well as preparation of samples for analysis. They cover influences of age, gender, race, pregnancy, diet, exercise and altitude, plus the effects of stimulants and addictive drugs. They also consider the influence of the timing of sampling with regard to chrono-biological changes as well as the posture, site of sampling and the materials used. Specific chapters are devoted to: * preanalytical variables in hematology, * immunohaematology, * coagulation, * clinical chemistry, * immunoassays, * cellular analysis, * molecular biology, * blood gases and * therapeutic drug monitoring. Correspondingly, national and international standards are described for sampling procedures, transport, sample identification and all safety aspects. The text elucidates the effect of lipemia, haemolysis, antibodies and drugs, while quality assurance procedures are shown for achieving total laboratory management approaching the gold standard in preanalytical quality. In addition, the authors provide a glossary of terms used by various bodies as well as a separate list of analytes containing the available data on reference intervals, biological half-life times, stability and influence and interference factors. Intended for everybody involved in patient care and using or performing laboratory tests, interested readers will benefit from the summarized literature and the list of analytes.

This book was released on 2006-06-08 with total page 1856 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new edition of Norbert Tietz's classic handbook presents information on common tests as well as rare and highly specialized tests and procedures - including a summary of the utility and merit of each test. Biological variables that may affect test results are discussed, and a focus is placed on reference ranges, diagnostic information, clinical interpretation of laboratory data, interferences, and specimen types. New and updated content has been added in all areas, with over 100 new tests added. Tests are divided into 8 main sections and arranged alphabetically. Each test includes necessary information such as test name (or disorder) and method, specimens and special requirements, reference ranges, chemical interferences and in vivo effects, kinetic values, diagnostic information, factors influencing drug disposition, and clinical comments and remarks. The most current and relevant tests are included; outdated tests have been eliminated. Test index (with extensive cross references) and disease index provide the reader with an easy way to find necessary information Four new sections in key areas (Preanalytical, Flow Cytometry, Pharmacogenomics, and Allergy) make this edition current and useful. New editor Alan Wu, who specializes in Clinical Chemistry and Toxicology, brings a wealth of experience and expertise to this edition. The Molecular Diagnostics section has been greatly expanded due to the increased prevalence of new molecular techniques being used in laboratories. References are now found after each test, rather than at the end of each section, for easier access.
