Intrinsic PEEP Respiratory system   38199-6

LOINC Code


LOINC code38199-6
nameIntrinsic PEEP Respiratory system
descriptionAuto-PEEP occurs when expiratory time is insufficient to completely empty a delivered tidal volume. A portion of the tidal volume is "trapped" in the alveoli, thus pressure remains in the lungs at the end of expiration.
statusACTIVE

propertyPres  =  Pressure
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.

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
