Heparin induced platelet IgG Ab [Presence] in Serum or Plasma by Immunoassay   73819-5

LOINC Code


LOINC code73819-5
nameHeparin induced platelet IgG Ab [Presence] in Serum or Plasma by Immunoassay
descriptionThe qualitative result (positive/negative) for the detection of heparin associated IgG antibodies in human serum.
statusACTIVE

Fully-Specified Name

componentPlatelet factor 4 heparin complex induced Ab.IgG
propertyPrThr  =  Present or threshold:  The Property PrThr stands for “Presence or Threshold”, meaning either a) the actual presence or absence of an analyte, or b) that the amount of analyte detected is over some predetermined threshold.
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.
systemSer/Plas
    Ser  =  Serum
    Plas  =  Plasma
scaleOrd  =  Ordinal:  Ordered categorical responses, e.g., 1+, 2+, 3+; positive, negative; reactive, indeterminate, nonreactive.
methodIA  =  Immunoassay:  Encompasses all immunoassays with a few exceptions, including Immune Blot and Immune Fluorescence, which were created based on historic usage.

last change typeMIN  - change to field other than name
change reasonChanged Component core from "Platelet factor 4 polyanion (PVS) complex" to "Platelet factor 4 heparin complex induced" to align the Component for the newer terms with the existing older terms (the meaning is the same).; The PrThr property is used for LOINC terms whose results are reported using an ordered categorical scale, regardless of whether or not an internal threshold was used to make that determination. This change was approved by the Laboratory LOINC Committee in June 2016.; The 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.; Updated System from "Ser" to "Ser/Plas" since this test can be performed on either serum or plasma.
