Winston Lewis, MD has ordered a series of three sputum cultures for Mr. Fowler, who has been suffering with a productive cough for several months and extreme fatigue. Audrey Jones, CMA (AAMA), is assigned to obtain the cultures. When culture is obtained from Mr. Fowler, Audrey brings it to the POL for culturing. Case Study Review Questions What is the procedure for obtaining a sputum specimen? Why are detailed patient instructions critical? Mr. Fowler wishes to give all three specimens in one day to save on the transportation to and from the provider’s office. Audrey explains that the specimens must be obtained one each day, on awakening for three days. What is the reason for this? What microorganisms might the provider suspect, and how should the specimen be treated in the POL? Under what circumstances should the specimen be sent to an outside reference laboratory for further testing?
