CLS SI3314. Advanced Clinical Chemistry (3) Campus** - S; Online** - S This problem-solving oriented course presents the correlation of clinical chemistry test results to organ-related diseases, such as renal, hepatic, and endocrine diseases. The students will learn how to use clinical correlation as a quality assurance tool to detect patient testing errors. Students also leam about and evaluate the new diagnostic technology available to clinical laboratories, as well as learning how to select, evaluate, design, perform, and document CLIA-88 acceptable validations studies on new chemistry instrumentation or analytical methods. Interrelated topics in the clinical laboratory to include workload management, designing and implementing standards for quality assurance, budgeting laboratory operations, and investigative concepts related to new method and instrument evaluation, selection, and validation. Additionally, Therapeutic Drug Monitoring and Toxicology studies are presented. Prerequisites: Acceptance into the CLS Program, completion of the university's Quantitative Literacy requirement, and completion of CLS SI3302 (Advanced Clinical Laboratory Practices). CLS 3316.

Clinical Correlation (1) Campus** - S; Online** - F, S, Su Physician guided correlation between laboratory data and patient diagnosis. Prerequisite: as 4401 and 4442. CLS 4414. Laboratory Teaching and Supervision I (2) Campus** - F; Online** - F, S, Su Students will apply sound instructional and pedagogical theory by writing learning objectives. The learning objectives will then apply to an instructional unit on a as topic of their choice which they prepare and present to the class. Each student will also participate as a laboratory teaching assistant (TA) in a CLS laboratory section assisting the faculty in the administration of the laboratory instruction. Each student will be assigned to a as course laboratory section in which expected behavior includes: active participation in laboratory teaching, demonstration of procedures, preparation of laboratory teaching materials and assisting laboratory faculty and students where ever needed. Prerequisite: as SI3302. See online catalog for online course description. CLS 4417. Laboratory Teaching and Supervision II (1) Campus** - S; Online** - F, S, Su Instructional unit prepared in CLS 4414 will be presented at local hospitals to physicians and laboratory professionals during this semester. Each student will also participate as a laboratory teaching assistant (TA) in a CLS laboratory section assisting the faculty in the administration of the laboratory instruction. Each student will be assigned to a CLS course laboratory section in which expected behavior includes: active participation in laboratory teaching, demonstration of procedures, preparation of laboratory teaching materials and assisting laboratory faculty and students where ever needed. Prerequisites: as 4414. See online catalog for online course description. CLS 4442. Applied Working Laboratory I (3) Campus** - F; Online** - F Project-based applications set forth in CLS 4401. Students staff a simulated clinical laboratory and assume responsibilities associated with all facets of laboratory operations. Clinical and academic faculty serve as advisors/managers to each team of students. The process develops team building skills critical to the modern health care setting. Prerequisite: CLS 4401 must be taken concurrently CLS 4446. Applied Working Laboratory II (3) Campus** - S; Online** - S A continuation of project-based applications set forth in CLS 4401. Students staff a simulated clinical laboratory and assume responsibilities associated with all facets of laboratory operations. Clinical and academic faculty serve as advisors/managers to each team of students. The process develops team building skills critical to the modern health care setting. CLS 4446 expands to examine issues that cross all health care disciplines. Prerequisites: as 4401 and 4442. CLS 4405 must be taken concurrently. CLS 4453.
