The Service Directory states the Department's preferred sample type and collection conditions for each test. This more comprehensive listing is intended for use within the laboratory only , and details those alternative sample types and conditions which remain acceptable (often within specific limits). It is intended to aid those members of staff dealing with unusual combinations of tests and sample types to minimise the number of rejected samples and patient phlebotomy episodes. For further information, please contact the Operational Service Manager for Specimen Reception.
