Edition DescriptionRevised edition
SynopsisThis newly revised, performance-based text is designed for use in the classroom and the laboratory. Workers in physicians? office laboratories, small clinics, hospital laboratories, public health departments, and point-of-care testing facilities will find this useful guide covers both theories and techniques of basic medical laboratory procedures in hematology, hemostasis, urinalysis, clinical chemistry, and clinical microbiology. The content is broken into eight units. Each unit begins with an introductory overview and then breaks into separate, sequentially numbered lessons. Lessons are short and to the point, covering the basic concepts, and emphasizing safety and quality assurance. New updated photographs and illustrations enhance the reader's understanding. Updated content meets the new OSHA and CDC regulations and information on needles and new safety regulations is addressed., This newly revised, performance-based text covers the theory and techniques of basic clinical laboratory procedures. Workers in physicians' office laboratories, small clinics, hospital laboratories, public health departments, and point-of-care testing facilities will find this guide a useful resource covering the procedures they perform. The procedures are presented in an easy-to-follow format that includes a step-by-step performance guide and worksheets when appropriate. Procedures include CLIA-waived tests as well as some more complex tests, and incorporates current CLIA and OSHA safety regulations.
