ACTH Simulation

Cortisol Response to ACTH Stimulation” Careset Change and Addition

The existing careset “Cortisol Response to ACTH Stimulation” has the new note added to it as a reminder to place the Cosyntropin medication when placing the careset. It is to be administered after the baseline lab value is drawn.

Note that the “Cortisol 15 Minutes” lab order has been removed from the careset as requested.

You will note these changes in the production environment if the careset is placed.

REMINDER: There is a new “ACTH Testing Procedure Plan” in production as of this week available for use as well.
