A proud moment in Jess’ career is when a clinician contacted Qbtech for clinical support when using QbTest to titrate different medication doses on a patient. The follow up tests had been completed but there were anomalies in the data. Using her prescribing knowledge, Jess was able to identify that the different times the QbTest had been administered mapped onto different points of plasma concentration linked to the medication release profile. She was able to advise a more consistent time of day to test based on the medication release profile to get optimal results when using QbTest for dose titration comparison.
