Newest firstRecently developed dried blood analysis methods for cannabinoid quantitation utilize small blood volumes, making them microsampling-compatible, but are limited by hematocrit-related bias for dried blood spots (DBSs) and higher consumable costs for volumetric absorptive microsampling (VAMS®). To address these issues, we developed a highly sensitive liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method ca…

To address these issues, we developed a highly sensitive liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (…
Open article record in new tab ↗While the recreational use of cannabis has well-established dose-dependent effects on neurocognitive and psychomotor functioning, there is little consensus on the degree and duration of impairment typically seen with medical marijuana use. Compared to recreational cannabis users, medical cannabis patients have distinct characteristics that may modify the presence and extent of impairment. The goal of this review w…
OBJECTIVES: Determine the prevalence of drug use in injured drivers and identify associated demographic factors and crash characteristics. DESIGN: Prospective cross-sectional study. SETTING: Seven trauma centres in British Columbia, Canada (2010-2012). PARTICIPANTS: Automobile drivers who had blood obtained within 6 h of a crash. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: We analysed blood for cannabis, alcohol and other impairing dr…
