TP = true positives, TN = true negatives, FP = false positives, FN = false negatives. Values presented represent the HemoTypeSC test results compared to the reference method, following ultimate adjudication of discordant results.
Any specimen that was either heterozygous or homozygous for each particular Hb variant was considered a true positive for that variant.
Any specimen that lacked each particular Hb variant was considered a true negative for that variant, regardless of other Hb variants present.
Positive predictive value.
Negative predictive value.
