Streptococcus pyogenes csrS gene [Presence] in Swab specimen by NAA with probe detection 76581-8
LOINC Code
LOINC code
76581-8
name
Streptococcus pyogenes csrS gene [Presence] in Swab specimen by NAA with probe detection
description
This term was created for, but is not limited in use to, Pathogenius Laboratories' Level 1 Wound and/or ENT test panels, which use quantitative PCR to identify commonly-found microorganisms in wound or ear, nose, and throat samples, respectively.
status
ACTIVE
Fully-Specified Name
component
Streptococcus pyogenes csrS gene
property
PrThr = 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.
time
Pt = Point in time: To identify measures at a point in time. This is a synonym for “spot” or “random” as applied to urine measurements.
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.
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.
