EVV

español al inglés Medicina Medicina (general)

I'm having trouble with this acronym. It appears often after reference ranges in lab results.

Ex.

Hematíes (recuento) 3.8 x 10-12/L, 4.3-5.6 EVV, Hemoglobin 11,8 g/dL 13.0-17.5 EVV, Hematocrit 36.2% 38.8-52.0 EVV...

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Ecuánime (asker) Oct 21, 2016: Thanks lorenab23. I understand , reference ranges it is only the acronym that is giving me trouble.
lorenab23 Oct 21, 2016: In English this is usually referred to as reference range and again they may very slightly among different labs
lorenab23 Oct 21, 2016: Hi Don't know what EVV stands for, but lab results always provide the "valores de referencia" next to the test result (which vary just a tad from lab to lab), so 4.3 - 5.6 is valor de referencia Hematíes hombres 13.0 - 17.5 valor de referencia Hemoglobina hombres 38.8 - 52.0 valor de referencia Hematrocito hombres some examples of valores de referencias from different labs http://laboratoriotenerife.com/analiticas-en-humanos/hematol... http://anemiass.blogspot.com/p/valoracion-de-laboratorio.htm...
