Oxygen [VFr/PPres] Airway adaptor --at end expiration   60943-8

LOINC code60943-8
nameOxygen [VFr/PPres] Airway adaptor --at end expiration
descriptionThe IEEE 11073 Standards Committee does not distinguish between measures of gas concentration reported as partial pressure and volume percent because they can be converted from one to the other under the law of gases. To make it clear that these could be reported either way, LOINC presents the property for these terms as both a volume fraction and a partial pressure (VFr/PPres), with corresponding units of %{vol} and mm[Hg], respectively.

componentOxygen^at end expiration
propertyVFr/PPres
    VFr  =  Volume Fraction
    PPres  =  Pressure (partial)
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.
systemAirway adaptor
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

History/Usage

first released
last updated2.70
last change typeMIN  - change to field other than name
change reasonChanged System from "Airway" to "Airway adaptor" to clarify meaning per IEEE 11073:10101a standard and to distinguish the "Airway adaptor" device from "Respiratory system.airway", which is the airway portion of the patient respiratory system.
