LOINC description : Dried blood spot (DBS) specimens have been used for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM)
across several classes of drugs including antimicrobials, anticonvulsants and immunosuppressants.
DBS specimens are useful for TDM in infants and children due to the small sample volume
required. DBS specimens are also useful for outpatient TDM in adults who have been
trained to collect their own DBS because most analytes are relatively stable in DBS
and the DBS card does not require specialized transportation. [PMID: 25204403];
