Induced sputums at home - Morse, Darlene (13 Jul 2018 16:34 EDT)

Induced sputums at home by Morse, Darlene (13 Jul 2018 16:34 EDT)
Reply to list

Hi all,

We are contemplating having the ability to do induced sputums in the home when the need arises. My question is twofold. If you do induced sputums in the outpatient setting what system do you use and do you have any information about it? Second if you do perform induced sputums do you have a protocol for that.

Any info will be helpful.

Thanks

Darlene
