It is a semi-log plot with acetaminophen levels (on a logarithmic scale) along the vertical axis versus time (on a linear scale) along the horizontal axis. Rumack–Matthew Nomogram showing acetaminophen level versus time as a method of interpreting levels and assessing severity and need for treatment.
The chart depicts the longer detection times of the metabolites. In the case of hair testing, the metabolytes are permanently embedded into hair, and the detection time is determined by the length of the hair sample used in the analysis. The standard length of head hair used in the test is 1.5", which corresponds to about 3 months.
