name
descriptionAutomated estimation of percent of hyperchromic red blood cells (% HYPER). The %HYPER parameter indicates the percent of cells that have a cellular hemoglobin concentration greater than 41 g/dL and is derived from the RBC hemoglobin concentration histogram. This term was based on, but not limited in use to, the ADVIA 120 Hematology System.

componentErythrocytes.hyperchromic/Erythrocytes
propertyNFr  =  Number Fraction
timePt  =  Point in time:  To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements.
systemBld  =  Whole blood
scaleQn  =  Quantitative:  The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range.
