Test Id : CSMPU

Testing begins with an adulterant survey. If the sample is found to be adulterated, testing will end, and the remaining tests will be canceled.

If the specimen is normal or only diluted, remaining testing will continue.

If immunoassay screen is positive, confirmation is performed. Confirmation with quantification of positive results for barbiturates, cocaine and metabolites, and tetrahydrocannabinol metabolite will be performed at an additional charge.

The test does not screen for drug classes other than those listed in Reference Values.

Detecting drug use involving stimulants, barbiturates, benzodiazepines, cocaine, opioids, and tetrahydrocannabinol

This test is not intended for use in employment-related testing.

Testing begins with an adulterant survey. If the sample is found to be adulterated, testing will end, and the remaining tests will be canceled.

If the specimen is normal or only diluted, remaining testing will continue.

If immunoassay screen is positive, confirmation is performed. Confirmation with quantification of positive results for barbiturates, cocaine and metabolites, and tetrahydrocannabinol metabolite will be performed at an additional charge.

This test uses the simple screening technique that involves immunoassay testing for drugs by class. All positive immunoassay screening results are confirmed by gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS) or liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and quantitated before a positive result is reported.

This assay was designed to test for and confirm by GC-MS the following:

-Barbiturates

-Cocaine

The following drugs/drug classes are tested by immunoassay and confirmed by LC-MS/MS

-Carboxy-tetrahydrocannabinol

The targeted opioid, benzodiazepine, and stimulant screen portions are performed by LC-MS/MS high-resolution accurate mass and are completed for all opioids, benzodiazepines, and stimulants.

Opioids are a large class of medications commonly used to relieve acute and chronic pain or help manage opioid abuse and dependence. Medications that fall into this class include buprenorphine, codeine, fentanyl, hydrocodone, hydromorphone, methadone, morphine, oxycodone, oxymorphone, tapentadol, tramadol, and others. Opioids work by binding to the opioid receptors that are found in the brain, spinal cord, gastrointestinal tract, and other organs. Common side effects for opioids include drowsiness, confusion, nausea, constipation, and, in severe cases, respiratory depression. These are dose dependant and vary with tolerance. These medications can also produce physical and psychological dependence and have a high risk for abuse and diversion, which is one of the main reasons many professional practice guidelines recommend compliance testing in patients prescribed these medications.

Opioids are readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, nasal mucosa, lungs, and after subcutaneous or intermuscular injection. Opioids are primarily excreted from the kidney in both free and conjugated forms. This assay does not hydrolyze the urine sample and looks for both parent drugs and metabolites (including glucuronide forms). The detection window for most opioids in urine is approximately 1 to 3 days with longer detection times for some compounds (ie, methadone).

Benzodiazepines represent a large family of medications used to treat a wide range of disorders from anxiety to seizures and are also used in pain management. With a high risk for abuse and diversion, professional practice guidelines recommend compliance monitoring for these medications using urine drug tests. However, traditional benzodiazepine immunoassays suffer from a lack of cross-reactivity with all the benzodiazepines, so many compliant patients taking either clonazepam (Klonopin) or lorazepam (Ativan) may screen negative by immunoassay but are positive when confirmatory testing is done. The new targeted benzodiazepine screening test provides a more sensitive and specific test to check for compliance to all the commonly prescribed benzodiazepines and looks for both parent drugs and metabolites in the urine.

Stimulants are sympathomimetic amines that stimulate the central nervous system activity and, in part, suppress the appetite. Amphetamine and methamphetamine are also prescription drugs used in the treatment of narcolepsy and attention-deficit disorder/attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Methylphenidate is another stimulant used to treat ADHD. Phentermine is indicated for the management of obesity. All other amphetamines (eg, methylenedioxymethamphetamine: MDMA) are Drug Enforcement Administration scheduled Class I compounds. Due to their stimulant effects, the drugs are commonly sold illicitly and abused. Physiological symptoms associated with very high amounts of ingested amphetamine or methamphetamine include elevated blood pressure, dilated pupils, hyperthermia, convulsions, and acute amphetamine psychosis.

This test is intended to be used in a setting where the test results can be used to make a definitive diagnosis.

Drug Immunoassay Panel:

The barbiturate, cocaine metabolite, and tetrahydrocannabinol metabolite assays are based on the kinetic interaction of microparticles in a solution as measured by changes in light transmission. In the absence of sample drug, soluble drug conjugates bind to antibody-bound microparticles, causing the formation of particle aggregates. As the aggregation reaction proceeds in the absence of sample drug, the absorbance increases. When a urine sample contains the drug in question, this drug competes with the drug derivative conjugate for microparticle-bound antibody. Antibody bound to sample drug is no longer available to promote particle aggregation, and subsequent particle lattice formation is inhibited. The presence of sample drug diminishes the increasing absorbance in proportion to the concentration of drug in the sample. Sample drug content is determined relative to the value obtained for a known cutoff concentration of drug.(Package inserts: BARB. Roche Diagnostics; V 13.0, 09/2021; THC2.
