Background

Many tests such as F-LPA, S-LPA and DST the test output is complex. Microbiologists interpret this output and convey it to clinicians Background Previously in Nikshay only the test output was recorded and not the final interpretation. In addition to interpretation a remarks field was also required to convey additional information to the clinician Hence we have added two fields in the Test Result entry Final Interpretation (Dropdown) Remarks
