LOINC Code


LOINC code96752-1
name
descriptionThis term is used to report whether a known mutation was detected within the S (spike) gene of SARS coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) by molecular methods. To report the mutation found, use [LOINC: 96751-3]. For reporting the SARS-CoV-2 variant strain identified, various codes are available in LOINC depending on the nomenclature used. For the most general code (nomenclature unspecified), use SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) variant [Type] in Specimen [LOINC: 96741-4]. To report the lineage for the variant, use SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) lineage [Type] in Specimen [LOINC: 96895-8]. To report the clade for the variant, use SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) clade [Type] in Specimen [LOINC: 96896-6].

componentSARS coronavirus 2 S gene mutation
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.
system{Specimen}
scaleOrd  =  Ordinal:  Ordered categorical responses, e.g., 1+, 2+, 3+; positive, negative; reactive, indeterminate, nonreactive.
method{Molgen}
    Molgen  =  Molecular Genetics:  General class of methods used to detect genetic attributes on a molecular basis including RFL, PCR and other methods.
