Welcome to the biochemistry page. The aim of this page is to help you get more confident with being able to interpret lab results, and to communicate that effectively with patients. It can be quite overwhelming when you see lab results the first time and you don’t know what to do with them; but after this, you will get more confident with being able to interpret them. In the cases you will meet some patient, and you will be presented with their biochemistry data. You’ll then need to play the role of detective and find out what’s going on with the patient as a whole; and based on that, you’ll be able to make some recommendations to help the patient. There’s lots of information on how to interpret lab results, so we’ve chosen the ones that are a most helpful for you. We hope that you enjoy putting this learning into practiceLearn what blood results should be reviewed, why they are important and the impact of medicines when a patient has an acute kidney injury (AKI).
This case study forms part of the Biochemistry learning gateway. On this learning gateway page, you will find a range of learning resources which aim to increase your knowledge, skills, and confidence in relation to biochemistry.
1h:00m (for events this includes pre and post event learning)
Learning Outcomes:
On completion of all aspects of this learning programme you should be able to:
Learn how to recognise abnormal liver function test results, how to explain this physiologically and the appropriate action to take when abnormal results are due to medicines.

On completion of all aspects of this learning programme you should be able to:
This e-assessment is linked with the CPPE biochemistry case studies, not the e-learning programme and assesses you on the learning outcomes within those case studies.
Why should I do this assessment?
This e-assessment completes the learning you began with the case studies available on the Biochemistry gateway page. You will have the opportunity to apply the knowledge you have gained by relating biochemistry results to clinical scenarios. Access and successful completion will contribute to your own personal development plan, be recorded in your My CPPE record and will enable you to complete a CPD entry on the learning. It may also provide evidence for achieving competencies in the RPS Foundation or Advanced Pharmacy Frameworks.
A website aimed at patients so they can understand clinical lab tests. This may help you reflect on how to communicate blood test results to patients.
The aim of this e-learning programme is to provide learners with a basic awareness of important blood tests and how to interpret them in order to support the diagnosis and management of patients. Section 1 covers full blood count, inflammatory markers and coagulation.
There are three sections which make up this learning programme. To access the other sections, select the links below:
Section 2 covers chronic disease markers, urea and electrolytes and liver function tests.
Section 3 covers thyroid function tests, bone function tests and therapeutic drug monitoring.
Please note: this e-learning programme has been developed and provided by the Welsh Centre for Pharmacy Professional Education (WCPPE). Users should recognise that this programme may refer to Welsh policies and organisations. CPPE does not maintain control over the accuracy and currency of this programme.
