Hello Mailbase, A while back I posted asking about phoning limits for TFTs, a summary of the responses received is in the attached powerpoint. As expected, there was considerable variation in the limits used. There was a general consensus that first instances of hyper/hypo thyroid should be phoned to GP practices, but mainly people felt that this was to avoid them being overlooked, rather than due to a requirement for urgent intervention. Thanks to everyone who replied, Helen Helen Jerina PhD Senior Clinical Scientist Department of Chemical Pathology Level 4 Sandringham Building Leicester Royal Infirmary Leicester LE1 5WW? ******************************************************************************************************************** This message may contain confidential information.
