This is via MyChart, with the usual "has not been reviewed by care team" note:
Negative for Campylobacter Species antigen.
This result is listed as "normal," but I don't think it was high on the list of possibilities.
Second result just showed up,
Negative for Shiga toxins, EIA w/RFL to E. Coli O157 culture.
Also listed as normal. That top line means "with reflex to," meaning run an E. coli test using the same sample if the first was inconclusive. Thanks for the correction/explanation,![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)

"w/RFL to" = "with reflex to".
Basically: Additional testing that's automatically done without requiring a consult to the person doing the ordering, when "lab result A" meets predetermined criteria, BUT is inconclusive without the additional test(s).
Keeps you from having to come back for the additional test; they're likely using the same sample tube.
