Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa rRNA [Identifier] by FISH in Positive blood culture   73961-5

LOINC Code


LOINC code73961-5
nameEscherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa rRNA [Identifier] by FISH in Positive blood culture
descriptionEscherichia coli and/or Klebsiella pneumoniae and/or Pseudomonas aeruginosa commonly isolated from human blood cultures can be detected by qualitative, multicolor nucleic acid hybridization assays. Testing is performed to help clinicians determine appropriate antimicrobial therapy for patients with Gram-negative bacteremia. This code is based on, but not limited in use to, a submission for AdvanDx's GNR Traffic Light PNA FISH assay. The test is done on blood cultures that have positive growth of an organism, not directly from a blood sample.

Fully-Specified Name

componentEscherichia coli & Klebsiella pneumoniae & Pseudomonas aeruginosa rRNA
propertyPrid  =  Presence or identity:  Prid stands for “Presence or identity”, is used for assays that detect whether or not an analyte of a particular kind is present, and if it is, to identify the specific analyte.
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.pos growth
scaleNom  =  Nominal:  Nominal or categorical responses that do not have a natural ordering. (e.g., names of bacteria, reported as answers, categories of appearance that do not have a natural ordering, such as, yellow, clear, bloody.
