How it works

Common questions

What is the treadmill pace converter?

Unit maths only. Same quantity, different label.

Which unit does the NHS use?

UK lab letters often use SI units. Keep the original unit on the printout as well as the conversion.

Can I treat the converted number as a target?

No. Conversion does not change meaning. Ask the clinician who ordered the test.

Understanding your results

If the two units disagree with the letter, trust the letter. Rounding to one decimal is enough for home use.
