Lab Skeletons/ 'fishbone' I think we need some clarification here and Ive found that an internet search produces mixed/unreliable results.Im talking about how we do lab notations. Ive seen what I thought were basic lab skeletons done in ways that I thought was all wrong only to find that it seems to be a regional thing.

Overview
Diagnosis of diverticulitis starts by recording patient history and performing a physical examination. Laboratory tests are important in excluding other causes of abdominal pain and any other gastrointestinal disease. These laboratory tests include complete blood count (CBC), C-reactive protein (CRP), urinalysis, and liver function tests. Imaging studies including CT scan and colonoscopy are also important measures in diagnosing diverticulitis.[1][2]

The initial diagnostic measures for diverticulitis are taking a proper history, doing a physical exam, and performing laboratory tests. Laboratory tests are initially necessary to exclude other gastrointestinal diseases and confirm diverticulitis. These lab tests include the following:

Laboratory Findings
Lab Skeleton Word
The initial diagnostic measures for diverticulitis are taking a proper history, doing a physical exam, and performing laboratory tests. Laboratory tests are initially necessary to exclude other gastrointestinal diseases and confirm diverticulitis. These lab tests include the following:
- C-reactive protein (CRP) - elevated due to inflammation
- Complete blood count (CBC)- CBC may show leukocytosis. A normal white blood cell count does not exclude diverticulitis, as most patients suffering from diverticulitis have normal bloodcell counts.
- Urinalysis: Urinalysis is performed especially in cases complicated by fistula and may show the following findings:[3]
- Pyuria- In the case of urinary tract infection
- Hematuria- In the case of nephrolithiasis
- Liver function tests- Amylase and lipase levels should be checked to exclude other diseases that cause abdominal pain.
