List some common point-of-care testing (POCT) errors.

Some of the most POCT errors are misidentification of the patient, incorrect specimen collection, incorrect storage of the reagents used for POCT, not performing or inaccurately performing quality control, improper specimen application, incorrect interpretation of results and incorrect documentation.

Discuss the three phases of laboratory testing. Which of the phases should the phlebotomist really focus on? Explain your answer.

The three phases of testing are pre-examination, examination, post-examination. Pre-examination includes all of the procedures performed prior to testing such as proper identification of the patient, proper tube and specimen collection and proper storage and transport. Examination phase is the phase when the testing is actually being performed. Post examination deals with the interpretation and documentation of the results. It is the pre-examination phase that is most important for the phlebotomist to focus on.
