Impact of an Andean breakfast on biochemistry and immunochemistrylaboratory tests: an evaluation on behalf COLABIOCLI WG-PRE-LATAM

Abstract

Andean breakfast can influence the routine biochemistry and immunochemistry laboratory tests and might expose patient safety to some risks. Therefore, the COLABIOCLI WG-PRE-LATAM calls attention and highlights that the fasting time needs to be carefully considered when performing blood testing in order to prevent spurious results and thus, reduce laboratory errors.
