Fibrin D-dimer FEU [Mass/volume] in Blood by Immunoassay   71427-9

LOINC Code


LOINC code71427-9
nameFibrin D-dimer FEU [Mass/volume] in Blood by Immunoassay
descriptionThis term refers to point of care (often CLIA waived) testing in a clinical or lab setting for the quantitative measurement of cross-linked fibrin degradation products (D-Dimer) in whole blood. The term was created for, but not limited to, Mitsubishi Chemical Medience's PATHFAST® D-Dimer test kit.
statusACTIVE

Fully-Specified Name

componentFibrin D-dimer FEU
propertyMCnc  =  Mass Concentration
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.
systemBld  =  Whole blood
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
methodIA  =  Immunoassay:  Encompasses all immunoassays with a few exceptions, including Immune Blot and Immune Fluorescence, which were created based on historic usage.

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.

last change typeMIN  - change to field other than name
change reasonThe 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.
