Following in the footsteps of ePocrates Lab and others, PEPID has added a Laboratory Manual to their suite of medical references.
The new Laboratory Manual includes detailed information on 300 common lab tests, including:
Critical values - listed first with links to interpretation, symptoms and treatments
Description - common use of tests, crucial ordering points
Method Differences - sensitivity/specificity, screening/confirmation use
Normal Reference Ranges - presented in standard and SI units with gender and age differentials
Interpretation - includes general comments, medical causes, factitious/spurious causes and drug causes with links to symptoms and treatment
Related Tests - lists commonly related tests, testing strategies, and other considerations
Equations - links to related PEPID equations/calculators
Physiology - underlying processes of substance/metabolite being measured, including origin, function, detrimental effects and excretion
Tech Info - collection methodology and guidelines
For a limited time, a 30-day trial of PEPID's new Lab Manual will be included in every download, online subscription or free trial of a PEPID professional suite.
