name
descriptionThis term was created for the NephroCheck® test kit, which calculates the likelihood of acute kidney injury (AKI) based on urine insulin-like growth factor binding protein 7 (IGFBP-7) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 2 (TIMP-2). Both IGFBP-7 and TIMP-2 are biomarkers for AKI. Patients with a result of >0.3 have a higher risk of developing moderate or severe AKI within the subsequent 12 hours compared to those with a result of 0.3 or less. This test kit is intended to help determine the risk of AKI in conjunction with clinical evaluation for ICU patients with acute cardiovascular or respiratory compromise within the past 24 hours.[PMID: 26948834]

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.
system^Patient
scaleQn  =  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
