Test Code LSDS Lysosomal Disorders Screen, Random, Urine
Ordering Guidance
This test is the recommended screening test for the initial workup of a suspected lysosomal disorder (LD) when the patient's clinical features are not suggestive of any specific LD.
Necessary Information
1. Patient's age is required.
2. Biochemical Genetics Patient Information (T602) is recommended. This information aids in providing a more thorough interpretation of results. Send information with specimen.
Specimen Required
Patient Preparation:
1. Do not administer low-molecular weight heparin before specimen collection.
2. Baby wipes or wipes containing soaps or lotions should not be used before specimen collection because these may interfere with results.
Supplies: Urine Container, 60 mL (T313)
Container/Tube: Clean, plastic urine container with no metal cap or glued insert
Specimen Volume: 12 mL
Pediatric Volume: 3.5 mL
Collection Instructions: Collect a random urine specimen (early morning preferred).
CMH Collection: 3mL urine in a sterile cup
