CLS 101 Intro to Medical Laboratory Science An introduction to the medical laboratory sciences and the professions of clinical laboratory science. Professional ethics, medical terminology, laboratory safety, the use and care of basic laboratory equipment, routine urinalysis, and identification of ova and parasites. Note: Contingent on agreement from course professors at both campuses. CLS 103 Phlebotomy Phlebotomy is the "art of drawing blood". The course consists of a knowledge component to include: anatomy of hand, arm, foot and blood vessels; blood vessels; blood composition, specimen types, and coagulation factors. The motor skills component will include instruction in manual phlebotomy techniques, and drawing and handling specimens. The attitude component discusses the public relations aspect of the job and job applications. Open to all students. CLS 104 Phlebotomy Internship The internship provides a supervised rotation of no less than 160 hours in the phlebotomy section of the affiliated clinical laboratory. Prerequisites: acceptance into the Phlebotomy Technician program, CLS 103. CLS 111 Introduction to Clinical Laboratory Science Introduction to the clinical laboratory science profession. Lectures, discussions, and field trips focus on professional traits and communication, ethical behavior of the health care provider, major curriculum requirements, and scope of practice in the profession. CLS 201 Immunology The foundations of diagnostic serology, immunohematology, histocompatibility and hematology as well as new technology such as monoclonal antibodies and molecular biology are covered in order for students to become better prepared for a career in laboratory medicine. Prerequisites: General Biology 150-151 or equivalent, CHEM 115, 116 or 121, 122 strongly recommended. Open to all students. CLS 205 Clinical Internship I Supervised rotation in blood drawing and the clinical microscopy department for the clinical affiliate. Prerequisites: CLS 101, 225, and 245. CLS 215 Clinical Internship II Supervised experience in the hematology, chemistry, microbiology and blood banking departments of the affiliated clinical laboratory. Prerequisites: CLS 101, 225, 235, and 245. CLS 225/L--325/L Hematology/Lab Identification of normal and abnormal blood cells in various hematological disorders. Theory and application of hematology procedures. Morphologic examination of blood and marrow and laboratory testing used in hematological study. CLS 235/L Clinical Chemistry I/Lab Lecture and laboratory. Principles of instrumentation and the theory and application of the biochemical tests performed in the clinical laboratory. The student will receive instruction in the basic techniques required for performing routing manual determinations. Prerequisites exist. CLS 240 Immunohematology Lecture and laboratory. Fundamental principles of immunology are presented and applied to serology and blood banking. Donor selection, blood collection and processing, blood components. Preparation and administration of blood and genetics of blood group inheritance. Theory of blood coagulation and routine procedures. Prerequisites: CLS 101, 225. CLS 245 Clinical Microbiology I The morphology, cultured characteristics and identification of bacteria pathogenic to man and their role in infectious disease are discussed, as well as antibiotics susceptibility testing and rapid identification systems. CLS 255 Clinical Internship III Supervised experience in the hematology, chemistry, microbiology, and blood banking departments of the affiliated clinical laboratory. Prerequisites: All CLS courses.
