Fibrin D-dimer FEU [Mass/volume] in Platelet poor plasma by Immunoassay 48067-3
LOINC Code
| LOINC code | 48067-3 | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| name | Fibrin D-dimer FEU [Mass/volume] in Platelet poor plasma by Immunoassay | ||
| description | D-dimer is considered a coagulation or hemostasis assay and will usually require platelet poor plasma (PPP); tests done on whole blood are the exception. Some assays do not specify PPP (e.g. VIDAS D-Dimer Exclusion II, Biomerieux, Inc) per se but the whole blood is spun down to yield plasma, which will be low in platelets. Spinning is the most common way to obtain plasma low in platelets. | ||
| status | ACTIVE | ||
Fully-Specified Name | |||
| component | Fibrin D-dimer FEU | ||
| property | MCnc = Mass 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 | PPP = Platelet poor 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 | IA = Immunoassay: Encompasses all immunoassays with a few exceptions, including Immune Blot and Immune Fluorescence, which were created based on historic usage. | ||

| short name | D dimer FEU PPP IA-mCnc | ||

Associated Observations | |||
LOINC codes that represent optional associated observation(s) for a clinical observation or laboratory test. A LOINC term may represent a single associated observation or panel containing several associated observations. | |||

| change reason | The EIA method, which was always intended to cover more than just enzyme-linked immunoassay and whose display name for the long common name has always been Immunoassay, was renamed IA in order to eliminate ambiguity about whether the method has a broader meaning than just enzyme-linked immunoassay. Likewise, EIA.rapid was renamed IA.rapid. These changes were approved by the Laboratory LOINC Committee in June 2016. | ||
