Deprecated Mycobacterium tuberculosis rifAMPin resistance (rpoB) gene [Presence] in Unspecified specimen by NAA with probe detection 48176-2
LOINC Code
| LOINC code | 48176-2 | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| name | Deprecated Mycobacterium tuberculosis rifAMPin resistance (rpoB) gene [Presence] in Unspecified specimen by NAA with probe detection | ||
| status | DEPRECATED | ||
| status reason | Ambiguous - This term suggested the presence or absence of the rpoB gene indicates resistance to rifampin. However, the rpoB gene is present in all Mycobacterium species; it is the presence of certain variants in the rpoB gene that are associated with resistance to rifampin. Additionally, the term should have stated "Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex". The newer LOINC is modeled correctly. | ||

Fully-Specified Name | |||
| component | Mycobacterium tuberculosis rifAMPin resistance (rpoB) gene | ||
| property | PrThr = 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. | ||
| 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 | XXX | ||
| scale | Ord = Ordinal: Ordered categorical responses, e.g., 1+, 2+, 3+; positive, negative; reactive, indeterminate, nonreactive. | ||
| method | Probe.amp.tar | ||
Additional Names | |||
| short name | Deprecated M TB rpoB XXX Ql NAA+probe | ||
Basic Attributes | |||

| order vs. observation | Both | ||
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 updated | 2.64 | ||
| last change type | DEL - delete (deprecate) | ||
| change reason | Property changed from Acnc to fit the current LOINC model.; The PrThr property is used for LOINC terms whose results are reported using an ordered categorical scale, regardless of whether or not an internal threshold was used to make that determination. This change was approved by the Laboratory LOINC Committee in June 2016. | ||
