Clinical genetics laboratories use divergent demographic frameworks across countries: comparing data structures for ‘race’, ‘ethnicity’, and ‘ancestry’ on test requisition forms

2021-12-17

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Purpose</h4> The goal of this study is to investigate how population groups are represented on requisition forms for clinical genetic testing in different laboratories. <h4>Methods</h4> Clinical laboratory test requisition forms (RFs) were obtained from 70 laboratories in the US, Canada, Europe, and Australia. Details about the laboratories and how RFs represent patient demographics were extr...
