I agree with Rich, we to at Staten Island University Hospital have test patients in live. In fact we have dozens. Like Rich said' "No matter how much testing you do in Test, you cannot guarantee that the setup is correct in Live until you test it."

The opinions were about evenly split between those who said “No, Never!” and those who said, “Of course we use test patients in Live”. I am in the latter category. N Better to test it on a dummy patient than a real one….

We would like to use some for testing new procedures in LIVE and also for Quality assurance specimens etc. How would you register them? What account type etc. etc. would you use so it would not affect statistics that we need to submit to government (Canada) Thanks ***** CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE ***** This message contains confidential information and is intended only for the individual named.
