%0 Journal Article %T Thyroid hormone balance: recommandations and technical plug for interpretation of changes and traps %A FE.Ellakhdi %A A.Naamane %J Technologies de Laboratoire %D 2010 %I TECHNOP %X A classical thyroid hormone balance involves the determination of TSHus and / or FT4 and / or FT3. Many discrepancies torque TSHus, FT4 and / or FT3 can be attributed to the physiological or pathological conditions, but conditions for sampling, sample quality, conservation and the sensitivity of the assay are also frequently involved. A better understanding of changes in thyroid hormone balance during physiological and pathological guaranteed a perfect clinico-biological synthesis and an adequate care. The aim of our work is to propose a factsheet from a series of definitions to avoid the pitfalls of interpretation to improve the quality of care, while emphasizing the importance of greater collaboration between clinician and biologist prescriber. %K Balance %K thyroid hormones %K TSH %K T4 %U http://www.technolabo.ma/TL21-1.pdf
