It has to precede any other examination. The doctor introduces the dipstick (speculum exam) and collects the sample by rotating the stick for 10 seconds from the posterior fornix of the vagina or from the ectocervix. Then the doctor inserts the dipstick in the collection tube which contains a liquid, mixes the dipstick in the solution, waits for 10 minutes and then reads the result on the dipstick. One line shows that the fFn levels are below 50ng\/ml, therefore the test is negative. Two lines show that the fFn levels are above 50ng\/ml, therefore the test is positive.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>QuikCheck fFN test QuikCheck fFN test is a diagnostic test that examines the level of fetal fibronectin a pregnant woman has and can accurately assess the possibility of a preterm labor.
