nameParathyrin.intact intraoperative percent change in Serum or Plasma
descriptionPrimary hyperparathyroidism is treated by surgically removing one or multiple glands. The decision on what glands need to be removed is made based on PTH intact levels drawn during the surgical procedure. Differential sampling and intra-operative PTH values also help locate hard to find parathyroid glands. A decrease in PTH of 50% or more from baseline to post-surgery PTH predicts operative success.

componentParathyrin.intact intraoperative percent change
propertyMCPctDiff  =  Percent Difference in Mass Concentration
timePt  =  Point in time:  To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements.
systemSer/Plas
    Ser  =  Serum
    Plas  =  Plasma
scaleQn  =  Quantitative:  The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range. The test result value may optionally contain a relational operator from the set {<=, <, >, >=}. Valid values for a quantitative test are of the form "7", "-7", "7.4", "-7.4", "7.8912", "0.125", "<10", "<10.15", ">12000", 1-10, 1:256
