Erythrocyte clumps [#/area] in Urine sediment by Automated count   49505-1

LOINC Code


LOINC code49505-1
nameErythrocyte clumps [#/area] in Urine sediment by Automated count
descriptionAutomated counters measure the number concentration directly and calculate values for the per HPF (or per LPF) when the laboratory chooses them. These analyzers generate the # per HPF or per LPF (as the particle requires) assuming a spun urine based on relationships between the volume of spun and unspun urine.

Fully-Specified Name

componentErythrocyte clumps
propertyNaric  =  Number Aeric (number per area)
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.
systemUrine sed  =  Urine sediment
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
methodAutomated count
