A Fecal Occult Blood test is done to detect invisible traces of blood within the stool. Blood in the stool is usually an indicator of gastrointestinal problems such as inflammatory intestinal infections, hemorrhoids, anal fissures (cracks in the skin of the rectum that bleed), peptic ulcers, Crohn’s disease, diverticulitis, acid reflux disease, and ulcerative colitis. It can also be an indicator of colon or rectal cancers. These cancers are the third most common cancers. An average of one in 19 people will be affected with it in their lifetime. Because of this, it is extremely important to get regular screenings for possible blood in the stool for early disease detection. Medical guidelines state that everyone should have a fecal occult blood test each and every year starting at age 50.
The fecal occult blood test has a success rate of 91%, which means that it will find at least 9 out of 10 cases of blood in the stool for each test done. This makes it a very efficient test for the early diagnosis of gastrointestinal disorders as well as colon and rectal cancers. The earlier cancer is diagnosed, the easier it is to treat successfully. It is also extremely easy to use and administer to patients.
One step cassette style fecal occult blood test is a simple form of examination. This is a simple, straight binding immunoassay for the quick and qualitative detection of human occult blood in feces. The assay is invented to identify the lower stages of colorectal bleeding than other biochemical detection methods. The test code is an immunochromatographic sandwich technique using two specific monoclonal antibodies to purposively identify hemoglobin in test samples.
The result is very exact and allows an easy-to-understand interpretation than those of guaiac-based test. Concerning the level of sensitivity, it is very high with the capability to identify the 20 ng/ml hemoglobin in feces. Furthermore, the accuracy of the rapid tests is not affected by interfering stuff, and dietary constraint is not needed. So how specimen is collected? It is done by collecting a stool. It may employ the special sample collection instrument provided. The very first thing that is required to do is unscrewing the top of the sample collection device and taking out the sample collection stick, and collects the sample by plunging the stick into 3 varied places of the stool sample. Then, you need to place the sample collection stick back in the sample collection instrument and screw together tightly.
The rapid tests kit is stored at temperature from 2 to 30 degree Celsius in the sealed pocket to the expiration date. The kit must be kept on a place safe from the harms of direct sunlight, moisture, and heat. When using the kits, keep in mind that this is for diagnostic purposes only. Patient specimens may have infectious agents and must be treated as if capable of transferring disease. It is advised that a person must wear disposable gloves. Don’t used the kit beyond the expiry date and not reusable. It is necessary to follow instructions to avoid dangerous contamination that will lead to sickness.
