   Analysis of Body Fluids in Clinical Chemistry
                                                                                                                             Medical laboratories need to determine appropriate fluid types for testing and understand
                                                                                                                             performance limitations of testing methods.

   This guideline provides information for the medical laboratory
   for evaluating measurement procedures, as well as a strategy
   to characterize assay performance, when applied to body
   fluid matrixes. Key concepts that apply to the entire test cycle,
   including preexamination, examination, and postexamination
   phases of body fluid testing, are discussed.

   This standard specifies the processes required to ensure accurate
   patient and specimen identification in manual and electronic
   systems across the health care organization. Processes include
   system design considerations, differences in requirements for
   patients with or without identification bands, and provisions for
   patients with communication barriers.

Free Rationale Documents
Using the CLSI voluntary consensus process, the Subcommittee on AST develops standards that promote accurate AST
and appropriate reporting.
To meet this need, CLSI has published free rationale documents that provide the scientific reasons behind the
subcommittee’s decisions, along with documentation of the standardized data and methods used to determine
breakpoints. Access all Rationale Documents at clsi.org/rationale.
