Said: We were JUST sited on our CAP inspection this month because we were only using a selection of i-STATs for our Cal/Ver as instrument-to-instrument comparisons. We now have to test the entire fleet.

Said: In most cases, you don't need to read the adulteration strip right away, you can read it along with the test results.

Urine Drug Screens

We are planning to implement POC urine drug screens in provider offices. We are uncertain how to ensure the temperature and adulteration strips are read at the correct times. For example, our product instructions say to read some results immediately, some at 30 seconds and some at 45 seconds. The staff are not standing outside the door with a timer. Can anyone share with me how you are meeting the timing to read these results? Any other helpful tips or problems to avoid? Thanks.
