Calculation of the cholesterol/HDL cholesterol ratio
(CHOL/HDL ratio)
The cholesterol/HDL ratio, in combination with other parameters,
provides information about a disturbance of the lipid metabolism.
Press F4
Enter the patient’s cholesterol value and confirm with the “↵” key on
the keyboard.
If the value is above or below the limit values Reflotron Plus indicates
this by displaying the sign “<” or “>” before the respective maximum
or minimum value. If the entry is not corrected Reflotron Plus per-
forms the calculation with the programmed limit value.
Enter the HDL cholesterol value and confirm with the “↵” key on the
keyboard.
Maximum and minimum values programmed into the instrument:
minimum maximum
Cholesterol mg/dl: 100 500
mmol/l: 2.586 12.93
HDL cholesterol mg/dl: 10.0 100.0
mmol/l: 0.259 2.586
The CHOL/HDL ratio is calculated.
In the example shown here the ratio of cholesterol to HDL cholesterol
is 5.78.
The values can also be entered directly from the instrument’s mem-
ory. To search for values in memory use the keys shown on the left
(R see also “Searching and Copying”, page 3.7).
This function is only available when the calculated CHOL/HDL ratio is
displayed.
