Preanalytical Variables and Their Influence on the Quality of Laboratory Results Author
While analytical standards have been developed by established quality control criteria, there has been a paucity in the development of standards for the preanalytical phase. Only recently recommendations have been published regarding the quality of samples including the definition of the optimal sample size, the use of anticoagulants and stabilizers, stability criteria regarding transport and s...
متن کاملPreanalytical variables and Alzheimer disease biomarker concentrations in cerebrospinal fluid.
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) -amyloid (A 1–42) is one of the key biological forms of -amyloid protein in brain tissue that inversely reflects brain amyloid burden with reduced concentrations in Alzheimer disease (AD) (1 ). Reductions in CSF A 1–42 have been shown to occur years before symptom onset (2 ) and to have good positive predictive value for progression from mild cognitive impairment to cl...
متن کاملPreanalytical Errors in Hematology Laboratory- an Avoidable Incompetence
Background: Quality assurance in the hematology laboratory is a must to ensure laboratory users of reliable test results with high degree of precision and accuracy. Even after so many advances in hematology laboratory practice, pre-analytical errors remain a challenge for practicing pathologists. This study was undertaken with an objective to ...
متن کاملPreanalytical variables affecting the integrity of human biospecimens in biobanking.
BACKGROUND Most errors in a clinical chemistry laboratory are due to preanalytical errors. Preanalytical variability of biospecimens can have significant effects on downstream analyses, and controlling such variables is therefore fundamental for the future use of biospecimens in personalized medicine for diagnostic or prognostic purposes. CONTENT The focus of this review is to examine the pre...
متن کاملThe Effect of Preanalytical, Analytical, and Postanalytical Variables on D-dimer Measurement
D-dimer is a soluble fibrin degradation product deriving from the plasmin-mediated degradation of cross-linked fibrin. D-dimer can hence be considered a biomarker of activation of coagulation and fibrinolysis, and it is routinely used for ruling out venous thromboembolism (VTE). D-dimer is increasingly used to assess the risk of VTE recurrence and to help define the uoptimal duration of anticoa...
