- Course objectives
- After this course the participant should be able to: - choose biochemical tests suitable for diagnostics of diseases - know the basic problems of common biochemical diagnostic tests - know how to collect biological material and how to treat it to prevent false results - to assess reliability of laboratory results.
- Learning outcomes
- Student will be able to:
purposefully indicate laboratory biochemical tests
correctly interpret laboratory results
evaluate laboratory tests with regard to their sensitivity and specificity
use knowledge of the uncertainty of the evaluated parameter
to focus on possible pre-analytical influences and interferences - Syllabus
- Analytical sources of variation, accuracy and precision. Diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and efficiency of diagnostic tests. Reference ranges, decision values. Collection and processing of specimens, special requirements, general safety rules.
