Preoperative Laboratory Testing
Anesthesiology Clinics, 2016Routine preoperative testing is not cost-effective, because it is unlikely to identify significant abnormalities. Abnormal findings from routine testing are more likely to be false positive, are costly to pursue, introduce a new risk, increase the patient's anxiety, and are inconvenient to the patient.

Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, 1995
Despite impressive advances in our understanding of the natural history of the rheumatic diseases and their treatments, there remains much to be learned. The management of most of these diseases is far from satisfactory for either the clinician or patient. There is little distinction between clinical practice and clinical research.

Abstract This chapter describes the way genetic testing is done. Essentially, the test measures the number of CAGs which are repeated in the first part of the gene. It is possible to measure the size of a section of the gene for Huntington’s disease (HD) so as to know how many CAG repeats are present in the gene.

To the Editor.— Of the reasons cited by Dr Lundberg for ordering laboratory tests (1983;249:639), perhaps the least supportable and of least potential benefit to the patient is habit . Before September 1982, our laboratory, supporting a 160-bed, tertiary care, pediatric teaching hospital, performed an average of four urine chloride determinations ...

[Preoperative laboratory testing].
Minerva medica, 2005The preoperative laboratory screening is commonplace in clinical practice and is traditionally defined as the practice of prescribing laboratory testing before surgery on patients undergoing a given procedure. The wide heterogeneity of the solutions prospected over the past decades emphasizes the objective difficulty at issuing definitive guidelines ...
