Overview
- An elevated/reduced concentration of serum/blood/urinary/CSF/other [lab test] is diagnostic of [disease name].
- Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of [disease name] include [abnormal test 1], [abnormal test 2], and [abnormal test 3].
- [Test] is usually normal among patients with [disease name].
- Some patients with [disease name] may have elevated/reduced concentration of [test], which is usually suggestive of [progression/complication].
OR
- There are no diagnostic laboratory findings associated with [disease name].
Laboratory Findings
- Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of Sheehan syndrome include:
- Most sensitive test is inadequate prolactin and gonadotropin responses to stimulation.
- Baseline and stimulated anterior pituitary hormone level measurements.
