DISCLAIMER: If the date or time of collection is not included on the request form or the sample
does not meet our laboratory requirement for collection, transport and processing,
caution should be exercised when interpreting results as their accuracy cannot be guaranteed.
Absent clinical details may affect the laboratory's interpretation of results.

CHEMICAL PATHOLOGY
Specimen received: Clotted blood
Tests requested: Creat

Creatinine and estimated GFR:

Creatinine 55 umol/L 49 - 90
2
eGFR (MDRD formula) >60 mL/min/1.73 m
2
eGFR (CKD-EPI formula) 107 mL/min/1.73 m

MDRD-derived estimation of GFR may significantly underestimate true GFR

in patients with GFR > 60 mL/min/1.73m^2. It may also be unreliable in
the case of: age <18 years or >70 years; pregnancy; serious co-morbid
conditions; acute renal failure; extremes of body habitus/unusual diet;
gross oedema. The MDRD-eGFR used here does not employ an ethnic factor
for race.

Estimation of the GFR using the CKD-EPI formula is more accurate than
the MDRD formula at GFR > 60 mL/min/1.73 m^2, and can therefore be used
to detect patients with mild renal impairment. It can be used to grade
severity of renal impairment using the KDIGO 2012 recommendations. The
CKD-EPI formula used here does not employ a correction factor for race.

HIV Molecular Investigations:<Continued>

HIV Viral Load Lower than detectable limit

Input Volume 0.600 mL
Methodology Abbott Alinity M HIV-1 Test

Comment:
Based on the sample volume tested, the lower limit of detection is 20
RNA copies/mL. The linear range of this assay is 20 - 10,000,000 RNA
copies/mL (1.3 - 7 log copies/mL).

The result should be interpreted in conjunction with CD4 counts and the
patient's clinical status. A result of lower than detectable limit
cannot be presumed to be negative for HIV-1 RNA.

@ HIV Viral Load referred to Groote Schuur Laboratory (Tel 021 404 4129)
