More information about Responsible Trending

Responsible Trending allows the tracking of results over time supporting the importance of establishing baseline values.

Responsible Trending compares the same patient analyte of interest over time and across different instruments. It also displays each instrument's respective reference interval at the time the test was run. The data for each test result (result value, reference interval, etc.) is converted to align with the current result being viewed. This visual format provides a clear story of each patient's trends in test results over time.

Unit Irregularities

If the system detects unexpected units in historical data, an exclamation mark ! icon will appear alerting the user the result may not be converted outside of its original unit value and to interpret trend graph or table with caution.

What is Being Trended

ZoetisDx is continuously increasing the tests included in Responsible Trending. On rare occasions, the user may encounter the message – "Some information cannot be graphed" followed by the i icon. This alerts the user that a test may not appear in the trend graph or table.

Our trending capabilities are regularly updated and improved.
