Liver function tests
ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate)
Note:
ESR increases with age, and some labs don’t account for this in the reported range. We could calculate an age-adjusted upper range of ESR
Adjusted cutoffs are for men = age in years / 2 and for women = age in years + 10 /2
Please get in touch if you would like us to develop this feature.
Renal profile (U&Es)
Note
The gut off of eGFR > 90 is quite strict, we may be able to relax this in certain groups - interested in your opinion on this - please get in touch!
Coeliac screen
Note
This test can result in false negatives if the patient is on a gluten free diet, or is IgA deficient, though most screening labs will now identify IgA deficiency at the same time.
