So verwenden Sie das Virustransportmedium (VTM) Sammelset

MEDICO VTM Kit

Virustransportmedium (VTM) kits are used to transport specimens from patients suspected of having a viral infection to a laboratory for testing. The VTM kit includes a tube filled with viral transport medium, a sterile swab, and a plastic bag for transportation. Here are the steps to use the VTM kit:

• Open the VTM kit and remove the swab from its sterile packaging.
• Insert the swab into the patient’s nose, Kehle, or other area where the specimen is being collected.
• Rotate the swab gently for a few seconds to collect the specimen.
• Remove the swab from the patient and immediately place it into the tube containing the viral transport medium.
• Break the swab handle at the score line to ensure that it fits inside the tube, and tighten the cap on the tube.
• Place the tube containing the specimen into the plastic bag provided and seal the bag.
• Label the bag with the patient’s name, Datum der Sammlung, and other required information.

Notiz: VTM kits are intended for use by trained healthcare professionals and laboratory personnel. Die unsachgemäße Verwendung des VTM-Kits kann zu ungenauen Testergebnissen oder einer Kontamination der Probe führen.
