Description
Each of us has probably found ourselves in a situation where we held a discharge summary from the hospital or results from a biochemical laboratory. We encountered some familiar terms, such as cholesterol or sedimentation, but also many different "mysterious" abbreviations and numbers. With this guide to routine laboratory tests and values, we want to inform you about the most important and common ones. Laboratory test values are momentary records of our body. They are subject to constant changes and various influences and factors. Therefore, laboratory values can only be evaluated in relation to health status and appropriate medical knowledge. For the patient and their treating physician, determining these values often means significant help, as they can help detect or at least keep more diseases under control. Many people associate the word laboratory with an unpleasant blood draw or uncertainty about how to properly collect urine. To help you know what to expect in the future, we have also described the most important procedures for obtaining samples.
