status
ACTIVE
Fully-Specified Name
component
Epithelial cells.squamous
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.

change reason
Method was changed from 'Microscopy.light.HPF' to 'Microscopy.light'. Differentiating between HPF and LPF light microscopy for ordinal terms (present/absent) is not necessary.; 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.
