Patient Instructions
1) Gestational Screen: You do not have to fast. You will be asked to drink a sweet fluid quickly then sit quietly for
1 hour when your blood will be drawn. The test is usually done at 24 to 28 weeks of pregnancy.
2) Confirmatory Tests (Gestational & Diabetic) and Lactose Tolerance: Are performed in the lab and require a morning
appointment. Please fast overnight (at least 8 hrs), sips of water are allowed. Upon arrival at the lab or Specimen Collection
at QEH you will have your blood sugar drawn (Fasting), then you will be asked to quickly drink a sweet fluid.
- Now for the next 2 hours you should sit quietly, you cannot eat but sips of water are allowed.
- Your blood will be drawn periodically and the test can last up to 3 hours.

ENA Panel = SSA ( -Ro), SSB ( -La), Sm, RNP, Scl 70, Jo 1, dsDNA and Centromere B

THERAPEUTIC DRUG MONITORING (TDM) AND SAMPLING TIMES

TDM should be performed once a steady state has been reached usually after 5 drug doses.
When to perform TDM
- There has been a change in dose or additional drugs have been added which could interfere with the drug.
- There is a change in liver, renal, cardiac or GI function all of which may alter drug metabolism.
- You suspect toxicity, lack of therapeutic effect or non-compliance.
Requirements
For accurate and relevant therapeutic ranges the date and time of last dose is required, as is the dosing regimen
for Vancomycin, Gentamicin and Tobramycin (i.e. Pre-Dose, Post-Dose or Extended Interval) which determine
the therapeutic range you are given. Failure to provide this information will result in delayed specimen processing.
Sampling Times
Most drugs are measured at their lowest level (Trough or Pre-Dose Level) and the blood should be
drawn 0 to 60 mins prior to the next dose. If Peak or Post Dose Levels are required, blood should be
drawn
