About Opiate Screen, Blood in Mclean
This assay targets a defined set of natural and semi-synthetic opiates and their metabolites in whole blood or serum.
Blood is a closed compartment, so a positive result generally reflects recent exposure rather than cumulative use over weeks. Detection windows are therefore shorter than those of urine screening, and timing of collection relative to exposure matters.
Laboratories typically begin with an immunoassay that responds to a broad opiate class. A reactive immunoassay is not a diagnosis; confirmatory methods such as mass spectrometry identify the specific compound and distinguish legitimate prescribed medications from illicit substances.
Results are reported qualitatively as negative or positive, often with a cutoff concentration. Interpretation belongs with the ordering clinician, who weighs the result against the patient's history, current prescriptions, and the reason the test was requested.
