Each laboratory test captured in this 2017 version has a brief explanation of the test or laboratory panel, reference values, clinical presentation, and clinical implications.
Each lab test in this 2023 version briefly explains the lab panel, reference ranges, possible critical values (lab results outside the reference range), clinical factors (diseases or conditions) that could cause the trends, clinical presentation, and potential clinical implications.
By reading the section or a chapter from start to finish, you get a detailed summary of the laboratory tests used to evaluate that organ system or disease, why the test is used, what a normal value range is for the test, and how to interpret an abnormal laboratory test result.
This table lists reference ranges (expressed in both SI units and traditional units) for the most common laboratory tests and is intended for interpretation of the results as they are provided in the examinations.
Use the “normal values” table for appropriate lab. Test may be inaccurate, e.g., hemolyzed RBC and potassium level, failure to refrigerate urine specimens, inaccurate timing - drug post levels. Important to interpret for the patient and disease states involved, e.g., calcium level with hypoproteinemia. TREAT THE PATIENT, NOT THE LAB DATA.
Chapter 1 examines how to interpret results, with the remaining broadly representing a section of the body or a disease type with chapter 9 as a summary. This should enable a read from cover to cover or equally as a reference with each chapter independent.
