Medical (general)
This is related to a question I posted on 11/11, to which Patrick Hideo Kirby was kind enough to respond. Since posting, the client has provided me with the original source text, so would like to re-post with what I hope is a clearer explanation.
The above terms describe some tests administered to a hospital patient. They appear in table format, along with other tests, in a column with a heading of 検査名. They would thus seem to represent separate tests.
Here is roughly what the layout looks like:
検査名
.
.
CoV2Ag (鼻咽頭) 外
CoV2Ag (鼻咽頭)判
CoV2Ag (鼻咽頭) 定
.
.
My question is what do 外, 判 and 定 represent? I failed to note 外 in my initial question, but Kirby suggested that perhaps 判 and 定 should be read together as “determination.” While this sounds reasonable, that still leave 外 unsettled. Could this mean something like “off-site” or “at another facility”? Something like “Nasopharyngeal swab determination done at another facility”?
All suggestions sincerely appreciated.
Best,
Steve
