Quick answer
The PCP Blood Test is a laboratory screen that looks for phencyclidine, a dissociative drug also known as PCP, in a blood sample. Screening is usually performed with an immunoassay, a method that detects the drug or related compounds by their reaction with specific antibodies. Because screening tests can produce presumptive results, a positive screen is often followed by a more precise confirmation method when clinically required.
What this test measures
Phencyclidine is a synthetic compound that affects the central nervous system and has historically been used as an anesthetic and abused as a recreational drug. Laboratory screening detects the presence of the drug in blood, where detection windows tend to be shorter than in urine. The immunoassay gives a rapid initial answer, and the result is reported as positive or negative relative to the laboratory's cutoff.
When a screen is positive, the laboratory can perform confirmation using a technique such as liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry or gas chromatography with mass spectrometry. Confirmation identifies the specific compound and can provide a concentration. Some medications and other substances can interfere with immunoassays, which is one reason confirmation is used when a result matters.
This test may be ordered as part of a clinical evaluation or another authorized testing process, and it should be requested through an appropriate healthcare or testing provider. Results are interpreted in context by the ordering professional. The test is not intended for self-directed medical decision making.
