* [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.

Overview

Diagnostic Study of Choice

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
