HERON Verdigris: Search laboratory tests by reference ranges

Don't know the exact reference ranges for a certain lab? No problem since you can search a subset of HERON labs by High, Low, or Normal ranges. To search lab ranges:

  • Drag a lab into the search group. The value window will display if a value exists for this lab
  • Select By Flag on the value window
  • Select Normal, High, or Low
  • Click OK and continue building your search.

Note that the value window will not appear for some labs. For example, the influenza laboratory test returns either positive or negative. As a result, you cannot search by value or range.

Questions about HERON? Join the Frontiers Lunch and Learn which meets the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays of each month from 12:00 - 1:30 PM in room 3001D Student Center. ​Register in advance if possible but drop-ins are welcome.
