Alot of factors can contribute to misdiagnosis,not only disregard of test result(which most of the time is valid,study medicine and you will know why).
Laboratory errors from your end can also contribute,doctors poor clinical decision making,Nurses ineptitude etc.That is why the doctor whose the bucks end on his table have to be deligent and have high index of suspicion when your lab result,Nurses vital signs and radiographers results and not in keeping with his clinical assessment.There was a reputable hospital where I had once worked whose malaria test was never negative after working there for good 6mths.I had to alert the CMD and lab head.

So,disregarding results (A perfect example is when you grow staph aureus in ?CAUTI) is the least cause of misdiagnosis compared to what I listed above.

Who is saying that his opinion doesn't hold water when he actually help the doctors in SOME of the diagnosis...and you are not the only ones that do,Nurses also help with their vital signs and fluid charts.Although,there are thousands of diseases whose diagnosis are purely clinical.No test is needed to confirm,especially most psychiatric illness and some surgical diseases.

The point is that he doesn't have the final say and he doesn't have any reason to argue.Give him your lab result,you have done your job.The doctor will combine the result with so many other information he has that the scientist doesn't have to make his conclusion.He will also never interfer in the way you mix your chemicals or view your microscope to get your result even though he has an idea.

There are times doctors disregard lab findings base on so many other parameters and guildelines.Its not as straightforward as you think.For example,that a nurse gives a doctor high BP reading doesn't mean he should start treating the patient for hypertension. There are so many things to be considered,including some of the informations that might come from your lab to make that decision.

That your second to the last paragraph is not your work,although you may have an idea just like the pharmacist and other paramedics do.Just like the doctors may have an idea of some test procedure,but it's still not his work!

Doctors respect you and appreciate the good work you do to make the whole management go smoothly. Everyone should just maintain his lane.

God bless us

Making a diagnosis is still not within the purview of his training.Making diagnosisis beyond conducting lab test. There is a difference between medicine and medical lab science.Also,there is a difference between medicine and surgery.
You are the one misleading people here!

femi4:
Go to reputable hospital..you no gree

Basic123:
But he is not a medical doctor right?
There is a clear cut job description
He is not meant to make diagnosis and formulate management plan.He can't become a medical doctor
through the backdoor.

His doctor is like that of a Ph.d holder.
If he so much desires to be making diagnosis and manage patient he should enrol in a medical school.

Basic123:
Medlab grandiosity no be here ooo.
One came to me and he started arguing a diagnosis. I asked him if he is a doctor he said yes,doctor of lab.That he can interpret result.

APOPTOSIS:
He nailed that MedLab.
Seems they teach them Grandiosity in school.
Ordinary MedLab.
MedLab should be an accelerated program in Nigeria. Some courses should never exceed 2 years duration.
Just imagine spending 4 years in school studying English/Literature, Philosophy and political science?

Gbam!
Akpabio, Wike & Tinubu will have to buy 250k SIM cards & fill them as constituents' contacts.


I doubt if Wike can successfully change his ogogoro voice when INEC calls to verify if he is truly Mrs. Joy Aduku of Ward C.

Ghana match the other day someone who was watching live at the stadium was shocked when he received the second goal notification from flashscore.com before the goal was actualled scored for real. The bookies are living in the future

Wailers should rest.

APCHaram:
Those are marketed as food supplements and not drugs and if you check the labelling there are no claims of its efficacy as a drug.

That's why they have to recruit marketers .

It's all placebo.

APCHaram:
You are a bloody liar.


Every drug that is imported into Nigeria must first be submitted to NAFDAC for verification of its authencity, potency and safety .

Samples of expected batch are submitted to NAFDAC before hand for testing. Even the foriegn manufacturers ISO certification and Health regulatory license is scrutinized by NAFDAC as part of screening.

If everything meets NAFDAC standards, the importer is given the go ahead to import the said pre approved drug specification and quantity.

On arrival into Nigeria, NAFDAC will take hold of the consignment at their main laboratory in Lagos and do random testing on the each batch samples. NAFDAC will only finally release the drugs to the importer after it is fully satisfied with the consignment.

Now here is where it gets shaddy.

Most of your distributors will then use the NAFDAC approval and go ahead to then begin to produce extra fake batches with fake NAFDAC certification and most of this is done in markets in Onitsha and Aba.

Next time you want to lie on behalf of your blodas , think very well before you post rubbish here

Having billions is not the issue. Let me explain ( I know say I go explain tire).
What most business people in the market do is to ride on the back of established brands and make more money.
This is how it works. A lot of foreign manufacturers of popular medication brands have NAFDAC number on paper but they do not have existence or production in Nigeria or even distributors. This could be due to the challenges of running a successful organized business in Nigeria. Remember, these products are already popular in Nigeria, so there is no issue with consumers accepting them.
An Igbo business man would then approach a third party in the foreign country where the medication is still manufactured. Remember, the foreign version in the same packaging of the medication won’t have NAFDAC number because it is not a requirement over there.
Then, somehow they successfully import these foreign versions into Nigeria but this are now term fake. The reason they are considered fake and rightly so is because there is an existing NAFDAC number for that product in Nigeria. However, the Nigeria version is not available anywhere.
Another thing some of the traders do is that they also knowingly import the foreign version even when the Nigeria version is still available. This practice cause undue competition with the local version, and results in lost of revenue for the original Nigeria company. In fact, some of the market raids are sponsored by companies that have experienced this issues.
Note, there are also the very bad actors. These ones deliberately go all out to import very fake counterfeit versions mostly from Asia. These are the very bad heartless actors .
In most markets, even their own union are against the last group. They do confiscate the fake products and sanction such individuals.
But when it comes to NAFDAC raid, every one is a suspect.

That lecturer should have avoided her as much as possible, even if she was blocking the road, he should have gently eased himself around get.

After he walked away, because he heard her complain, he foolishly came back instead of moving on with his life.

When you see a woman videoing herself or taking selfies, gently stay well away. Nothing good will come out of any interaction with her.

Oga lecturer, las las she go beg and cry and you go gree.
