SPECIMEN LABELING
& Completion of Request Forms
Specimen labels
The specimen tubes or container should each be
labelled with the patient’s name as it appears on
the request form submitted with the specimen. The
date of collection and gender should also be
included. The label should be legible. If affixed,
ensure it is securely attached. If handwritten, use
black or blue inked pen. For microbiology and
histology/cytology specimens indicate the site from
which the specimen was obtained (e.g. pleural fluid,
breast, etc).
Aliquot / Transferred specimen
If the specimen is an aliquot transferred to a nonprimary
tube, please indicate the specimen type (e.g.
serum, plasma or urine).
Request form completion
The request form should be comprehensively filled. If
submitting with a Pathologists Lancet Kenya request
form, ensure that all the sections are duly completed.
Pathologists Lancet Kenya request forms can be
obtained from the lab through our Customer Service
Team.
Minimum information required includes:
• Patient unique identifiers such as name,
reference, ID and telephone number.
• Patient demographic details including
gender, date of birth and address.

New generation request forms
As part of our continued effort to meet client
expectations, we have introduced a wide range of
new generation request forms that are customised
for different users and specialties.
The request forms include:
• General problem form for GPs
• Specialist forms for Gynaecologists,
Surgeons, Paediatricians, Oncologists,
Urologists, Dermatologists and other specialists
• We also have retained our traditional universal
form which has been made less congested but
still bears a wide tests scope.
• Research clients and dedicated client clinics are
able to order custom-made forms specific to
their test profiles.
