A specimen is marked STAT. What does this require of the phlebotomist?
a.Collect and deliver it immediately, ahead of routine work
b.Collect it only after all fasting patients are done
c.Collect it at the end of the shift and label the time
d.Collect it with the next scheduled sweep
Giải thích
STAT means immediately, and these draws take priority over routine and timed collections so critical results reach the provider quickly. Deferring a STAT to a scheduled sweep or to the end of a shift defeats the purpose and can delay urgent treatment. Fasting patients are a scheduling convenience, not a higher priority than a STAT order.
