  • Complete list of Test menu with guidelines


    The test menu is presented here as an intuitive table that will help you sort the data in multiple ways and help get answers to questions like:

    • What are the various sample cut off time?
    • What are the days on which special tests are done?
    • How should specimens be collected and transported to ensure the samples will not be rejected?
    • When are reports available for various tests.. and so on.



  • Specimen collection guidelines


    This section provides general guidelines on specimen collection. You may print this and pin it up for internal use. Following these guidelines will help ensure sample rejections to the minimum and improve reliability of test outcomes.

    1. Patient samples must be accompanied by proper requisition form with Name, sex, age and forwarding institution reference legibly written. Many times poor handwriting and illegible writing causes errors and delays the test process.
    2. Ensure that samples are not spoilt before sending
    3. Ensure that samples are sent according to the time cut off for various tests. Delay in sample receipt could impact test outcomes and result in sample rejection. For specific time cut off for various tests, look up Test Menu
    4. All sample containers must be properly labelled with the patient’s name and reference number.
    5. All sample containers must be tightly capped to prevent leaks and spillage.
    6. Use appropriate tubes for different types of tests. Use as many tubes as are required for various tests. For example, when requesting for blood count and HbA1c on the same patient, submit 2 tubes of 4ml EDTA samples and not one.
    7. Send enough quantity of the sample to do the test properly.
    8. Do not store blood samples in freezer.
    9. Do not take samples for Ferritin tests in the afternoon.
    10. Do not send over night samples for certain tests like sugar, calcium, phosphate and electrolytes.
    11. Certain patient actions can influence lab results. If these need to be highlighted, please mention them in your requisition slip.
    1. Vigorous exercise (raises ALT)
    2. Meals (raises triglycerides)
    3. Drugs (can interfere with many types of test depending on the drug type and last dosage taken)
    1. If there are delays in transporting the sample, then the specimens must be refrigerated. Specimens intended for bio chemical analysis should be kept at room temperature. Sputum samples should not be refrigerated.
