Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Closed-tube sampling has improved the safety and efficiency of coagulation testing. This reduces the chances of the clinical laboratory scientist being exposed to the patient specimen through spillage or aerosol formation.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Reflex testing is the automatic ordering of tests based on preset parameters or the results of other tests. These reflex tests must be clearly indicated to the ordering healthcare provider at the time the initial screening test (or tests) is ordered.
