Eosinophil Disorders Testing Algorithm
INDICATIONS FOR TESTING:
 • Peripheral blood eosinophilia/hypereosinophilia uncovered incidentally during medical evaluation or workup for specific symptoms
 • Eosinophilia, 500-1,500 cells/µL
 • Hypereosinophilia, >1,500 cells/µL
Workup
 • Screen for secondary causes of eosinophilia (common causes are asthma, allergy, drug reaction, infection, neoplasms)
 • Screen also for Strongyloides infection with serologic testing, especially if glucocorticoid treatment may be indicated
 • For organ-specific signs or symptoms (eg, skin or esophageal), consider tissue biopsy
