3 Introduction

Background There are six toxicology laboratories within the Hospital Authority (HA) and on average each serving the needs of a cluster. Details on distribution and the role of cluster toxicology laboratories (CTLs) are listed in Appendix A. To better align service arrangement and enhance quality of service, HA has established a Toxicology Reference Laboratory (TRL) at PMH since March 2004 to support the cluster toxicology laboratories (CTLs), and in conjunction with the CTLs to cater for the toxicology needs in HA.

Objectives of TRL The HA TRL is set up as a tertiary service to serve the following purposes: (i) As a toxicology reference laboratory for HA (ii) To establish a laboratory for herbal products poisoning (iii) To provide diagnostic services for new or uncommon / substances of abuse (iv) In conjunction with the CTLs, to set up a network to cater for toxicology needs in HA

Services provided by TRL The menu of services will be updated from time to time. For suspected toxin not on the list, clinicians are welcome to discuss the needs with TRL. The laboratory request forms are available for download at http://trl.home.

Referral System The TRL works as a team with the CTLs. The CTLs serve to provide the initial screening and supporting on site, with the TRL functions as a back up to the CTLs and provides a referral service. Clinicians are therefore advised to discuss with their corresponding CTLs which will address the clinical needs according to the facility available at the CTL. Cases that required the support of TRL will be directed to TRL accordingly.

Specimen Collection and Handling

 Different laboratory tests require specific specimen containers. Consult this guide for the appropriate specimen containers for a particular test.  All specimens should be tightly capped, checked for leakage and properly labeled with patient’s name and HKID.

7  For non-biological samples, different specimens should be placed in individual container bags. Please stick the patient’s gum label on the individual container bags instead of the specimens

 For drug products, please provide product packaging, insert and multiple pills if available.  For herb/plant, please provide unused herbs/, herbal broth, herbal remnant and herbal formula if available.  All the specimens should be put together into a secondary container bag. TRL request form should be placed in the carrying pocket of secondary container bag.  Do not stick the specimen onto paper or TRL request form.
