LOINC Code


LOINC code55459-2
nameDeprecated Prekallikrein (Fletcher Factor) in Platelet poor plasma
descriptionCreated ONLY for ORDERING in response to request from Canada Health Infoway- a national standardization effort. The dashes in this case mean that the ordering provider does not care what property or scale is used in the observation performed in response to this order. LOINC is still pondering details about how this kind of item should be represented. So the representation might change in the future, but the term will still have the same usage and meaning.
