Looking for an offline dictionary that provides information about Medical Diagnostic Lab Tests ? Look no further. The purpose of this app is to give broad information on laboratory tests on BLOOD AND OTHER BODY FLUIDS. It contains the typical ranges for different tests. Hematology, biochemistry, hormones, enzymes, iron profile, urinalysis, fecal testing, body fluid tests, microbiology tests, and other tests are among the majority of the laboratory's activities that are covered.

Search option 2. Favoriting 3. Dark mode 4. Ability to share a lab value with others IMPORTANT NOTES Each commercial laboratory has its own set of normal values, called Normal Range or Reference Range on your lab report. These values depend on the equipment or method used. Compare your results to the range shown on your lab report. Results that are out of range may not represent a problem. During a recent visit to your health care provider’s office, you had blood drawn for lab tests and now you want to know if everything is “okay.” You’ve received a copy of your lab report or an email telling you that your test results are available to view online. So you log on to the secure site and download your results. In scanning the page, you see a result that is highlighted as being outside the reference range and you wonder what that means for you. Some lab tests provide a simple “yes” or “no” answer. For instance, was the test positive for the bacteria that cause strep throat? Many other tests, however, are reported as numbers or values. Laboratory test results reported as numbers are not meaningful by themselves. Their meaning comes from comparison to reference values. Reference values are the values expected for a healthy person. They are sometimes called “normal” values. By comparing your test results with reference values, you and your health care provider can see if any of your test results fall outside the range of expected values. Values that are outside expected ranges can provide clues to help identify possible conditions or diseases. DISCLAIMER: This app is for reference and educational purposes only.
