you forgot to include the labels that have to be in the samples and in the tube.
Thank you for the quick & easy demonstration 🙏🏼
You forgot to include the labels with name birthday and time of specimens
Thanks for the great video! It’s always nice to get information prior to the happening. All questions covered. 😊
Have had a half-dozen colonoscopys in my lifetime and depending upon the DR. that administered the exam, they were all a PITA. This time my DR. Rx a Cologuard type of self test/exam, and it's a lot easier with much less discomfort.
I am the only M.D. in Oklahoma that spent 10 years researching DNA adducts, detecting them both quantitatively and qualitatively with HPLC equipped with electrochemical detection and mass spectrometry. This is the real deal.
What about the tube that you stick on the turd ?
This test has a very high false positive rate. Statistically unacceptable. I also fell for this test. Came out positive. Then followed up with a colonoscopy. Came perfectly clean. But my insurance may not cover the colonoscopy since two preventative measures may not be covered. Keeping my fingers crossed. Anyone above 45, like me, reading this: Do yourself a favor....don't do this stool test, just go for a colonoscopy, it remains the gold standard.
anus
what if the sample is larger than required ?
😆
How does this test differ than doing a hemoccult sample test ?
why do we have to include a doctor
I just did my "sample" this morning and now I'm waiting for UPS to pick it up. My only problem is this video is of such low, amateurish quality, it might turn some people off. Fortunately, there's a much better instructional video here on RUclips.
You are right. I found him to be extremely boring and very dull, in his demonstration. Better, lack there of.
Um....I've watched other videos demonstrating how to use the kit. And, admittedly, this video was the weakest of them all.
