Improvements in understanding human physiology and technical advances have contributed to the widespread use of laboratory diagnostics in patient work-up. However, this evolution in laboratory diagnostics was accompanied by the spread of false myths and misconceptions – consuming human and economic resources – and endangering clinical reasoning and especially patients. The aim of this article is therefore to provide an overview on some typical examples of false dogmata about frequently used values in emergency medicine laboratory diagnostics.
