indexfall
Definition from
Wikipedia:
Indexfallet eller det primära fallet är den initiala patienten i en epidemiologisk undersökning,[1][2] eller mer generellt, det första fallet av ett tillstånd eller syndrom (inte nödvändigtvis smittosamt) som beskrivs i den medicinska litteraturen, oavsett om patienten tros vara den första person som påverkats av syndromet eller tillståndet.
Example sentences:
Även om man inte längre kan ha ambitionen att utrota covid-19 så kan kontaktspårning vara av värde. Den kräver att man har ett indexfall där man till exempel med antikroppar påvisat akut infektion. (Dagens Medicin)
