Specimen submitted in the above image for Hgb A1C is submitted in specimen tube of yellow top cap which is not recommended.The tubes used for this collection are Lavender top cap K2 EDTA tubes. Whole blood of 3 or 4 ml should be collected. But here the blood collected in the test tube seems to be freezed (separation of blood cells and plasma), and this is not whole blood. Blood collected for Hgb A1C should not be refrigerated.
This specimen was submitted for a hemoglobin A1C test. What is the preanalytical issue with this...
In diabetes management, an important treatment goal is to lower the hemoglobin A1c (glycosylated hemoglobin, approximates the percentage of red blood cells damaged by high blood sugar). Suppose we wanted to test the hypothesis that Drug A is more effective than Drug B in lowing the A1c level. Healthy people who do not have diabetes have an A1c between 4 and 5. The goal in diabetes management is often to bring a higher A1c (such as 9 or above)...
A1C is an extremely useful diagnostic tool. What molecule is modified in order for this test to work? A) Hemoglobin B) Lysozyme C) Albumin D) Hbp2
What is the purpose of having a patient collect a clean‑catch, midstream urine specimen? Why is a microscopic examination performed on a urine specimen? How early in a pregnancy can a urine pregnancy test provide an accurate result? Why is it important for diabetics to test their blood glucose levels on a regular basis at home? What does a hemoglobin A1c show? Discuss patient education and professionalism related to assisting in the analysis of blood.
I previously submitted this post.... but please make this perfect. please make sure every since thing is answered and is in block or modified block format. Make sure grammar is correct. I spent money on this. please do the best job u can. thank you. You will practice writing a professional correspondence to a patient summarizing the results of their recent visit and the doctor’s recommendations. The requirements of your letter are: 1.) Block or modified block format 2.) Indented...
Calculate the shear modulus for a given cylindrical metal specimen and test results of T= 1500 N·m, L= 20 cm, D= 5cm, φ= 0.02 rad. Can you guess what the material may be? (hint, use shear modulus eqn then look up value on Table 10.5 to determine material)
For the POC (point of care), when you test hemoglobin, what is the Traditional lab instrument measurement mechanism? Describe the mechanism or methodology (principle of operation) for the hemoglobin on the Central Lab instrument. How does this instrument measure the hemoglobin as your POC instrument? (This instrument likely performs measurements on multiple analytes, but you need only describe the mechanism for hemoglobin.)

The creep properties of a superalloy are being tested in a lab. The specimen is 100mm long and is subjected to a test temperature of 1000C. After 80 hours the specimen extends by1.5mm. What is the creep rate (assuming a linear response)? Using the data given, if a new specimen is tested at a test temperature that is 200C higher, what is the expected increase in specimen length after the same test period? (activation energy for steady state creep =...
