Lab tests for ethanol are measured in mg/DL (miligrams per decilitre.) To convert your results to blood alcohol level, move the decimal three places to the left. In your case, your BAC would be 0.18, which is above the legal drinking limit in the USA and Canada.

Hi katojovi
You should discuss this with your family doctor, I am not a medical person and have no qualifications.

to the best of my knowledge an ETOH test is a test that analysis  alcohol toxicity in the human body,
180h is the value of or reading of the test
the only one who can accurately answer your query regarding the values (180h) is a doctor or a medical scientist. There are things such as weight, age, gender ect witch need to be considered when reading test results.  

ETOH, when used in a medical context, is an abbreviation for ethanol or alcohol.
