| CSF Specimen Collection Process The cerebrospinal fluid sample is obtained by a physician usually via lumbar puncture in the L3-L4 region.
The opening pressure is first measured (nl 90-180 mm of water in lateral position) and if it is elevated greater than 200 mm, no more than 2 ml of CSF should be withdrawn. Sterile technique is always used to reduce the risk of infection. Care must be taken to avoid injury to neural tissue.

| Automated Systems An increasing number of transfusion services are using automated blood banking systems. These systems may employ either solid phase or gel techniques. Use of automation may increase productivity, reduce costs, and, by decreasing the number of manual steps in the testing process, potentially reduce errors. | View Page |
