Urine drug screening Factors affecting a valid specimen Urine creatinine concentration is assayed to detect diluted specimens. This can be caused by surreptitious addition of tap water or excessive fluid intake before the collection. A urine creatinine level < 1.76 mmol/L indicates a dilute specimen. A repeat specimen should be considered. The temperature of the specimen indicates if it is freshly passed. If the specimen is fresh‚ the temperature should fall in the range of 33–38°C. If

I will reflect on an incident that occurred during my shift to develop positive attitude towards nursing informatics. In this reflection‚ I am going to use Gibbs (1988) Reflective cycle. This model is a recognized framework for my reflection. Gibbs (1988) consist of six stages to complete one cycle which is able to improve my nursing informatics and learning from the experience for better practice in future. The cycle starts with description of the situation‚ analysis of the feelings‚ evaluation

Table of Figures Figure 1: Stress Strain Diagram for Structural Steel 4 Figure 2: Fractured specimens 8 Abstract In this lab‚ students will be testing A-36 Steel‚ 1018 Steel‚ and 6061 Aluminum undergoing Tensional loads. All tests will be performed on the Instron machine. This experiment will show students how stress-strain graphs correlate to the material properties of each specimen. Students can observe the properties of failure due to tension and further understand the ASTM standards
