Description
Label a supplied endocrine result's unit and specimen basis.
Endocrine records distinguish specimen matrices, assay methods, unit bases, reference editions and sampling clocks. A printed significant-digit count differs from numerical rounding, while a fasting label is a reported state rather than verified preparation. Image axes and result labels organize supplied observations without deriving hormone physiology or clinical interpretation.
Label a supplied endocrine result's unit and specimen basis.
When to use this tool
Use Endocrine Result Unit Basis Label when you already have resultCode, unit, specimenBasis and need to label a supplied endocrine result's unit and specimen basis.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter resultCode, unit, specimenBasis. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read label. Use the output convention below.
Require resultCode, unit and specimenBasis nonempty; append the supplied text.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| resultCode | Result Code | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| unit | Unit | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| specimenBasis | Specimen Basis | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |

{
"input": {
"resultCode": "R17",
"unit": "nmol/L",
"specimenBasis": "serum"
},
"output": {
"label": "R17; nmol/L [serum]"
}
}Limitations and assumptions
- This performs no unit conversion, specimen validation, method adjustment or clinical interpretation.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Reconcile the laboratory report, specimen and method information, reference source and collection timeline before comparing results. Use the complete appropriate assessment for a clinical question; one clock correction, diameter ratio or recorded status does not provide it.
