ABSTRACT

This article reports data pertaining to a worldwide web-based survey referenced in the publication “Adult CSF Total Protein: Higher upper reference limits should be considered worldwide ” (P.R. Bourque, et al., 2019). This survey was distributed to corresponding authors of the journal Neurology and the Journal of neurological sciences for the period of Jan–Dec 2017. The response rate was 36.9%. Additional results were collated through networking and national associations. There were 473 unique responses from clinical hospital laboratories in 69 countries: North America 178, South America 26, Europe 139, Africa 20, Asia 102 and Oceania 8. The upper reference limit for cerebrospinal fluid total protein ranged from 0.2 g/L to 0.8 g/L. 86.8% of the survey responses were 0.45 g/L or less. Data is presented separately for tertiary/academic and non-university/community centers.
