Therapeutic drug Monitoring (TDM) might be looked upon as the drug measurement use in body fluids to ensure supervision of patients who receive drug therapy for the treatment, mitigation and prevention of diseases. It has been a tradition to adjust of dosage drugs in accordance with traits and their therapeutic effects on a particular individual. Dosage personalization has proved to be difficult for those drugs that are not accessed in clinics, or when effects of toxins can’t be sensed without severe toxicity. Measuring drug levels in body fluids like serum and urine is an established clinical practice assisting in optimization and individualizing the therapy, (Valdes et al, 2010).
Toxicology in the current clinical context, toxicology has been linked to the process of investigating patients who are poisoned, and identifying relevant toxins. There are many reasons that can lead to poisoning like euthanasia among others. It has been shown that POCT is vital in hospital emergency department in assessing poisoned patients on admission. Apart from being used in clinics, it has been used as part of screening programs at workplace, or driver screening initiatives. Drug overdose and abuse testing has been performed generally on urine, and the saliva use has been only in defined conditions, while for ethanol testing, breath is preferred.
The alleged flexibility and ease of tool use, makes POCT devices, the best analytical apparatus in several conditions and by many operators. The main problem with this tool is that; unskilled operators and the potentiality inappropriate usage and the interpretation of results, might render the results unreliable. From the legal point of view, POCT drug and even ethanol outcomes are only considered to being preliminary results. The final confirmed results have to be confirmed by laboratory procedures that are accredited, for example following the Australian Standard AS 4308, (Valdes et al, 2010).
The effects of smoking were recognized three decades ago. Due to this, Continine has been the acceptable standard for the validation of chemicals of smoking status. It has been measured in several body fluids like urine, while the traditional analysis was chromatography. The assessment of point of care for the status of smoking mainly concentrates on providing evidence that supports claims of smoking by patients or volunteers. Presently, POCT is not under use to asses’ exposure to ETS.

Thanks goes out to the writer who filled my order. He did everything right the first time around. I had to ask for one tiny revision, but that was my own fault for leaving it out of the directions. |

So often, when one deals with customer service, he or she is treated rudely. That was not the case with EssaysEmpire.com. The agents were helpful and friendly, knowledable and concerned. I, for one, was astounded with their competence. When it came down to the actual written material that I ordered, it was much better than I had anticipated. There are clearly some expert writers who work for EssaysEmpire.com. I would rate this writing service as exceptional, 5 stars out of 5 stars. I will happily return when I need help with another written work. |

The paper that your writers did for me on the topic of, The Psychological Effects of Fluorescent Lighting in the Workplace,” was right on the money! They included my long list of customizations and did not charge extra for them. The formatting was just right. There were no grammatical errors. The length was what it was supposed to be. I am so happy that I chose to let the EssaysEmpire.com writers take care of my paper for me. I will choose this writing service again without hesitation. |

Today was the perfect day to make an A+! It convinced me that there are solutions to problems that seem impossible to solve. When I realized that the due date for my paper was coming up quickly, I felt like there was nothing I could do. If I didn’t hand in my paper on time, I would get an F and fail the course. However, I had to study for 3 major exams and write two other papers. My roommate suggested that I turn the paper over to you guys, which I did, and voila! I got an A+ on it and the problem was solved. Thank you, EssaysEmpire.com and to your writers and staff. You are a great writing service. |

You’ve done it again! Every time I order a paper from EssaysEmpire.com, you top the last one. This latest one was the best yet. I truly do appreciate the fact that you offer such high quality writing. It never fails. With some of the other writing services online, you ever really know what you are going to get. Sometimes, they just sell you a paper that someone else has already bought. I never have to worry about things like that happening when I use EssaysEmpire.com. |

Given the short amount of time I gave your writers to create my term paper, I was amazed by how good it was when I received it back! It appeared they had spent months writing it, rather than just one week. Thank you, EssaysEmpire.com! I enjoyed doing business with you. You are a fabulous writing company. |

Dear EssaysEmpire.com, I have never used a writing service like yours before. None of the ones I have tried previously offered the kind of guarantees that you offer. I even bought a paper that was plagiarized once. I never have to worry about things like that with EssaysEmpire.com! Thanks a million! |

Thank you so much! I was assigned a paper that I found impossible to write. I did the reading. I did the research. However, regardless of my weak attempts, I could not formulate a cogent paper. I needed help, and EssaysEmpire.com’s writers were there for me. Customer service even arranged for me to speak with the person who was working on my paper personally. I had a lot of concerns, because my professor was very picky. However, EssaysEmpire.com was able to handle the order with no problem |

I appreciate the help your wring service gave me with my biology paper. I have never cared much for biology. It is a tough subject for me to grasp. This is why I needed so much help with my paper. The writer absolutely understood the whole topic and turned out work that would have made anyone proud. Thanks a million for the great paper. |
