SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) RNA [Presence] in Respiratory system specimen by Sequencing   95424-8

LOINC Code


LOINC code95424-8
nameSARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) RNA [Presence] in Respiratory system specimen by Sequencing
descriptionQualitative detection of nucleic acid from SARS coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in respiratory specimens by sequencing methods, such as next generation sequencing (NGS), also known as high-throughput sequencing (HTS). Testing is performed for the diagnosis of COVID-19.
statusACTIVE

Fully-Specified Name

componentSARS coronavirus 2 RNA
propertyPrThr  =  Present or threshold:  The Property PrThr stands for “Presence or Threshold”, meaning either a) the actual presence or absence of an analyte, or b) that the amount of analyte detected is over some predetermined threshold.
timePt  =  Point in time:  To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements.
systemRespiratory System Specimen
scaleOrd  =  Ordinal:  Ordered categorical responses, e.g., 1+, 2+, 3+; positive, negative; reactive, indeterminate, nonreactive.
methodSequencing

Associated Observations

LOINC codes that represent optional associated observation(s) for a clinical observation or laboratory test. A LOINC term may represent a single associated observation or panel containing several associated observations.

History/Usage

first released
last updated2.75
last change typeMAJ  - change to name field other than Component;
change reasonRelease 2.75: SYSTEM: There are 2 similar system's in LOINC: 1- Respiratory system 2- Respiratory specimen Due to an applied logic, the display in the System axis for 1 is Respiratory (adjective) without specification of sample, specimen, or other specific noun, while 2 is displayed fully as Respiratory specimen. Therefore for now we replaced 1 with Respiratory system specimen, which will affect 83 term. The result is replacing "Respiratory" with "Respiratory system specimen". This is the short approach. The bigger project is to potentially merge data that has either 1 or 2 together. This is a project to pass by the laboratory committee and will involve about 1500 concepts.;
