Parathyroid Hormone (PTH)

Parathyroid Hormone (PTH)

New reference range in use from 3rd October 2022

2.7 – 11.1 pmol/L

(This reference range has been derived by assessment of literature and local data)

PTH should be interpreted in the context of calcium and albumin measurements. A PTH value inside reference limits in the presence of elevated corrected calcium values may indicate PTH excess.
