| name | Gene mutations tested for in Blood or Tissue by Molecular genetics method Nominal | ||||
| description | For targeted mutation analysis, report the discrete mutations the study is designed to detect. In HL7 V2 they can be reported in one observation as a list separated by repeat delimiters OR as a series of separate OBX segments, one per mutation tested for. In FHIR, multiple coded entries can not be reported as a list in one observation value field. They must be reported as the values of separate observations. | ||||

Fully-Specified Name | |||||
| component | Gene mutations tested for | ||||
| property | Prid = Presence or identity: Prid stands for “Presence or identity”, is used for assays that detect whether or not an analyte of a particular kind is present, and if it is, to identify the specific analyte. | ||||
| time | Pt = Point in time: To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements. | ||||
| system | Bld/Tiss Bld = Whole blood Tiss = Tissue, unspecified | ||||
| scale | Nom = Nominal: Nominal or categorical responses that do not have a natural ordering. (e.g., names of bacteria, reported as answers, categories of appearance that do not have a natural ordering, such as, yellow, clear, bloody. | ||||
| method | Molgen = Molecular Genetics: General class of methods used to detect genetic attributes on a molecular basis including RFL, PCR and other methods. | ||||

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. | |||||

| first released | |||||
| last updated | 2.73 | ||||
| last change type | MIN - change to field other than name | ||||
| change reason | Changed Component from "Gene XXX mutations tested for" to "Gene mutations tested for" to make it more clear that the mutations tested for are the subject of this concept rather than the gene, and removing "XXX" does not change the meaning of this term. | ||||
