1 September 2016 HCMC Toxicology Transition: Additional information and Frequently Asked Questions Many clinicians have asked for more information about the Urine Drug Compliance Analysis (LAB8742) switch to HCMC on September 6. How will the new drug screen results appear? You will see a list of results that includes: 1. Immunoassay (pos/neg) results for 14 drugs or drug classes. In conjunction with mass spectrometry, immunoassay adds sensitivity for detecting common drugs of abuse. The specific drugs responsible for any positives are shown under mass spectrometry. 2. Urine ph and creatinine: markers of specimen quality and integrity. 3. Mass spectrometry: Double-click to see the specific drugs and metabolites detected by definitive mass separation. Mass spectrometry is the standard method used to detect nearly all illicit, prescription, and over-thecounter drugs. Sample mass spectrometry results
2 An earlier announcement showed a screenshot with a positive result for Opiates which is not useful for compliance monitoring. I need to see the specific drugs and metabolites. The positive and negative tests are immunoassay results. The specific drugs and metabolites responsible for any positives are shown in the mass spectrometry result. I understand that results will no longer be reported as Expected or Unexpected based on the patients medication list. How will I correlate complex test results with the patient s medication list? As shown in the attached examples, HCMC s reporting of metabolites is quite straightforward and includes the parent drug name: for example trazadone metabolite ; or norbuprenorphine. For drugs that metabolize into other drugs, such as codeine to morphine and amitriptyline to nortriptyline, HCMC consultants are available 24/7 to assist with results correlation by paging (612) Urine test results are negative for a drug that I prescribed to my patient. I believe my patient is taking the drug as prescribed. Is there another explanation? Drug testing is concentration dependent, so it is possible that the prescribed drug was present in the specimen but below the positive cutoff. Please page the HCMC hotline, (612) for consultation and possible follow-up testing in these cases. How do I interpret a report that shows (1) only the parent drug with no metabolite; or, (2) only metabolite and not the parent drug? Does this mean non-compliance? This scenario can occur with compliant patients and is most commonly seen with opioid drugs. The missing parent drug or metabolite may be present but below the positive threshold in compliant patients who are ultra-slow or ultra-fast metabolizers or if they are taking other drugs metabolized by the same enzymes, which could slow metabolism of the parent drug or divert metabolism through a minor pathway. Please page the HCMC hotline for clinical consultation. Follow-up may include quantitative blood testing. For questions, comments, or suggestions about this newsletter or other laboratory issues, please contact Lauren Anthony, MD, Medical Director of Allina Health Laboratory, (612) or Lauren.Anthony@allina.com 2
3 I understand we will no longer see quantitative urine drug results. Won t this have a negative clinical impact? No, in fact, national guidelines recommend against quantitative urine drug testing: Quantitative definitive [mass spectrometry] urine testing is not more useful at detecting outcomes in pain management patients compared to qualitative definitive urine testing. Furthermore, quantitative definitive urine testing should not be used to evaluate dosage of administered drug or adherence to prescribed dosage regimen. Strength of recommendations: A; Quality of evidence: II National Laboratory Medicine Practice Guideline: Using Clinical Laboratory Tests to Monitor Drug Therapy in Pain Management Patients, July Is there a resource to show how long a drug should be detectable in a urine? Drug testing is highly standardized and detection windows are the same across laboratories. Reference tables can be found on national laboratory and medical websites, see attached pages for a list posted on Mayo s website. For questions or help with drug analysis results interpretation, HCMC encourages you contact a clinical toxicology consultant available 24/7 by paging (612) For questions, comments, or suggestions about this newsletter or other laboratory issues, please contact Lauren Anthony, MD, Medical Director of Allina Health Laboratory, (612) or Lauren.Anthony@allina.com 3
4 Example1 : HCMC Compliance Drug Analysis Results
5 Example 2 Note that mass spec results correlate with the POS results and metabolites include the parent drug name. Oxymorphone and Noroxycodone are metabolites of oxycodone.
6 Example 3 If present, methamphetamine would be listed here, but only amphetamine was found on mass spec. Results correlate with POS results and metabolites are listed by parent drug name.

The actual detection time depends on dose, frequency of use, and individual metabolism. Note: These tests do not differentiate between dextro (+) amphetamine (dexamphetamine) and racemic mixtures of dextro (+) and levo (-) isomers that are present in street amphetamine. These tests do not differentiate between ephedrine and pseudoephedrine. 8/31/2016
