Current concepts of "normal values," "reference values," and "discrimination values," in clinical chemistry.
The term "normal values" is seriously afflicted by sylleptic ambiguities and conceptual problems, and it is gradually being discarded from the lexicon of clinical chemistry. The neutral term "reference values" preferable on semantic and scientific grounds, and its use in clinical chemistry is rapidly gaining acceptance. The term "discrimination value" has been added to the lexicon of clinical c...
متن کاملRationale for Reference Methods in Clinical Chemistry
In the field of clinical chemistry evidence is mounting that a reliable and medically relevant structure can be built on the concept of compatibility through accuracy in measurement. By compatibility is meant the ability of all laboratories in a network to achieve on a given sample similar and reliable numerical values for a property under test. It is shown that when all laboratories in a netwo...
متن کاملReference values for 27 clinical chemistry tests in 70-year-old males and females.
BACKGROUND Reference values are usually defined based on blood samples from healthy men or nonpregnant women in the age range of 20-50 years. These values are not optimal for elderly patients, as many biological markers change over time and adequate reference values are important for correct clinical decisions. OBJECTIVE To validate NORIP (Nordic Reference Interval Project) reference values i...
