Microalbumin ug/min [Mass/time] in 24 hour Urine   58448-2

LOINC Code


LOINC code58448-2
nameMicroalbumin ug/min [Mass/time] in 24 hour Urine
descriptionThe use of ug/min in the component name is an exception to the usual LOINC rule of ignoring powers of ten differences in reporting units. This is necessary because many laboratories report the per minute excretion rate as well as the per 24 hour exretion rate on the same 24 H sample and do not want ambiguity at the receiving system.

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
