Overview

Diagnostic Study of Choice

Study of choice

  • [Name of the investigation] is the gold standard test for the diagnosis of [disease name].
  • The following result of [gold standard test] is confirmatory of [disease name]:
    • Result 1
    • Result 2
  • The [name of the investigation] should be performed when:
    • The patient presented with symptoms/signs 1. 2, 3.
    • A positive [test] is detected in the patient.
  • [Name of the investigation] is the gold standard test for the diagnosis of [disease name].
  • The diagnostic study of choice for [disease name] is [name of the investigation].
  • There is no single diagnostic study of choice for the diagnosis of [disease name].
  • There is no single diagnostic study of choice for the diagnosis of [disease name], but [disease name] can be diagnosed based on [name of the investigation 1] and [name of the investigation 2].
  • [Disease name] is mainly diagnosed based on clinical presentation.
  • Investigations:
    • Among patients who present with clinical signs of [disease name], the [investigation name] is the most specific test for the diagnosis.
    • Among patients who present with clinical signs of [disease name], the [investigation name] is the most sensitive test for diagnosis.
    • Among patients who present with clinical signs of [disease name], the [investigation name] is the most efficient test for diagnosis.

Test 2 ...%

✔= The best test based on the feature

Diagnostic results

The following result of [investigation name] is confirmatory of [disease name]:

  • Result 1
  • Result 2
Sequence of Diagnostic Studies

The [name of investigation] should be performed when:

  • The patient presented with symptoms/signs 1, 2, and 3 as the first step of diagnosis.
  • A positive [test] is detected in the patient, to confirm the diagnosis.

Diagnostic Criteria

According to the American College of Rheumatology classification criteria [1]

Asthma

Eosinophilia

Polyneuropathy or Mononeuropathy

Non fixed pulmonary infiltrates

Paranasal sinus that is abnormal

Eosinophils that are extravascular

Patients must express 4 out the 6 criteria to be diagnosed with eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis.

According to Lanham diagnostic criteria [2]

Asthma

Eosinophilia peak of >1.5x109 cell/L or >10% of the total WBC

Systemic vasculitis, two or greater extra pulmonary sites

All 3 criteria’s need to be present
