    Study Notes

    Sample Collection Procedures

    • General Sample Collection: Collect samples from skin, ears, mouth, nasopharynx, oropharynx, stomach, small intestine, and colon.
    • Tissue Biopsy: Aspirate tissues using a fine needle and a 22-259 gauge needle. Collect 3-12 ml of tissue sample and place in formalin for preservation. (Use 10x specimens.)
    • Urine Collection: Collect urine samples.
    • Bone Marrow Collection: Aspirate bone marrow using a Rosenthal needle. Appropriately sample the marrow.
    • Vaginal Cytology: Examine cells from the vagina to determine estrus stages (parabasal, intermediate, superficial, and atypical).

    Centesis Procedures

    • Abdomen Wall Insertion: Insert a needle through the abdomen wall into the bladder to collect urine.
    • Arthrocentesis: Collect synovial fluid from a joint (e.g., knee).
    • Bronchoalveolar Lavage: Use a bronchoscope to lavage the tracheal, bronchial, and nasal cavities, which are common sites for sample collection.
    • Nasal Flush: Flush and collect samples from the nasal cavity.

    Enema Types

    • Warm Water Enema: Administer warm water enemas, which are water-based.
    • Soap Enema: Use soap for enemas.
    • Mineral Oil Enema: Employ mineral oil for enemas.
    • Lubricant Enemas: Utilize lubricants or tubing.
    • Medication Enemas: Add medications to enemas for specific needs.

    Other Information

    • Specific Procedures: There is information regarding insertion techniques, materials, measurements, time estimations, and types of catheters. Equipment used include, but not limited to, red rubber (French), PVC, Foley catheters, and PTFE materials.
    • Sample Preservation: Samples should be placed in proper solutions (EDTA, formalin).
    • Sample Handling: Important steps regarding sample handling and procedures are noted within the text.
    • Procedure Variations: Information details variations in procedures and collection methods.
    • Associated Conditions: Collect samples relevant to specific disease-associated conditions like peritonitis and obstruction, and their respective procedures.
