| description | High sensitivity measurement of CRP may be used to assess the risk of future coronary heart disease, and as an additional independent indicator of recurrent event prognosis in patients with stable coronary disease or acute coronary disease. This term was created for, but not limited in use to, the cobas Cardiac C-Reactive Protein (Latex) High Sensitive test kit. | ||
| status | ACTIVE | ||
Fully-Specified Name | |||
| component | C reactive protein | ||
| property | SCnc = Substance Concentration | ||
| 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 | Ser/Plas Ser = Serum Plas = Plasma | ||
| scale | Qn = Quantitative: The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range. The test result value may optionally contain a relational operator from the set {<=, <, >, >=}. Valid values for a quantitative test are of the form "7", "-7", "7.4", "-7.4", "7.8912", "0.125", "<10", "<10.15", ">12000", 1-10, 1:256 | ||
| method | High sensitivity | ||
