Finnish term or phrase: mennessä vastatut tulokset
From a doctor's notes for a cardiac patient:

"ProBNP viimeksi 8100. Osastolla otettu ProBNP ei vielä vastattu." [proBNP = a type of measurement]

Elsewhere in the same notes:

"[DDMMYYYY] mennessä vastatut tulokset.
[a long list of measurements follows]"

I can't zero in on what "vastata" means in this context. How should it be interpreted?

Thanks
