Test ID: FSED
Sedative Hypnotic Panel, Urine-Forensic
Secondary ID
A test code used for billing and in test definitions created prior to November 2011
NY State Approved
Indicates the status of NY State approval and if the test is orderable for NY State clients.
Method Name
A short description of the method used to perform the test
Gas Chromatography/Flame Ionization Detection (GC-FID)
Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS)
Reporting Name
A shorter/abbreviated version of the Published Name for a test; an abbreviated test name

Specimen Type
Describes the specimen type needed for testing
Specimen Required
Defines the optimal specimen. This field describes the type of specimen required to perform the test and the preferred volume to complete testing. The volume allows automated processing, fastest throughput and, when indicated, repeat or reflex testing.
Random or spot urine collection, submit 10 mL of urine, shipped
refrigerate.
Note: Submission of the minimum volume results in an elevated
reporting limit and inability to repeat analysis.
Specimen Minimum Volume
Defines the amount of specimen required to perform an assay once, including instrument and container dead space. Submitting the minimum specimen volume makes it impossible to repeat the test or perform confirmatory or perform reflex testing. In some situations, a minimum specimen volume may result in a QNS (quantity not sufficient) result, requiring a second specimen to be collected.
Reject Due To
Identifies specimen types and conditions that may cause the specimen to be rejected

Specimen Stability Information
Provides a description of the temperatures required to transport a specimen to the laboratory. Alternate acceptable temperature(s) are also included.
| Specimen Type | Temperature | Time |
|---|---|---|
| Urine | Refrigerated (preferred) | |
| Ambient | 72 hours | |
| Frozen | ||
Reference Values
Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.
Ethyl Alcohol is screened by an enzymatic method; positive
results are confirmed by Gas Chromatography (GC).
Drugs are screened by Immunoassay; positive results are
confirmed by Gas Chromatography with Mass Spectrometry
(GC/MS). The following threshold concentrations are used
for this analysis.
Drug Screening Threshold Confirmation Threshold
Ethyl Alcohol 0.020 gm/dL 0.020 gm/dL
Barbiturates 300 ng/mL 100 ng/mL
Benzodiazepines 100 ng/mL 75 ng/mL
Flunitrazepam 100 ng/mL 300 ng/Ml
Ketamine
Gamma-Hydroxybutyric Acid (GHB): Negative
Test Performed By: Medtox Laboratories, Inc.
402 W. County Road D
St. Paul, MN 55112
Day(s) and Time(s) Test Performed
Outlines the days and times the test is performed. This field reflects the day and time the sample must be in the testing laboratory to begin the testing process and includes any specimen preparation and processing time required before the test is performed. Some tests are listed as continuously performed, which means assays are performed several times during the day.
Monday through Sunday
Analytic Time
Defines the amount of time it takes the laboratory to setup and perform the test. This is defined in number of days. The shortest interval of time expressed is "same day/1 day," which means the results may be available the same day that the sample is received in the testing laboratory. One day means results are available 1 day after the sample is received in the laboratory.
Maximum Laboratory Time
Defines the maximum time from specimen receipt at Mayo Medical Laboratories until the release of the test result
Performing Laboratory Location
The location of the laboratory that performs the test
CPT Code Information
Provides guidance in determining the appropriate Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) code(s) information for each test or profile. The listed CPT codes reflect Mayo Medical Laboratories interpretation of CPT coding requirements. It is the responsibility of each laboratory to determine correct CPT codes to use for billing.
