The Range of Uncertainty: a Tool for Efficiently Addressing Result Variability Around Clinical Decision Points for Hepatitis C Response-guided Therapy

並列摘要


Despite efforts to standardize molecular diagnostic tests, performance differences are not rare. Laboratories are challenged in situations where treatment rules have been established using a reference assay that is different from the assays being used in daily practice. Assessing the viral load status of patients with chronic hepatitis C under modern triple therapy is a recognized example. We demonstrate the use of the range of uncertainty as an easy and efficient tool that can provide information on the certainty of a test result's interpretation in the context of making hepatitis C virus treatment decisions.
