Enterobacteriaceae.carbapenem resistant [Presence] in Anorectal or stool specimen by Organism specific culture 77924-9
LOINC Code
| LOINC code | 77924-9 | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| name | Enterobacteriaceae.carbapenem resistant [Presence] in Anorectal or stool specimen by Organism specific culture | ||
| description | Carbapenem resistant Enterobacteriacae (CRE) screening may be performed using a rectal swab plated onto a culture medium containing high concentrations of a carbapenem. Any bacterial growth will be identified and full susceptibility performed. Testing can be performed on peri-anal swabs, stool specimen swabs, or stool specimens as well. | ||
| status | ACTIVE | ||
Fully-Specified Name | |||
| component | Enterobacteriaceae.carbapenem resistant | ||
| 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. | ||
| system | Anorectal/Stool Stool = Stool = Fecal | ||
| scale | Ord = Ordinal: Ordered categorical responses, e.g., 1+, 2+, 3+; positive, negative; reactive, indeterminate, nonreactive. | ||
| method | Organism specific culture | ||
Additional Names | |||
| short name | CRE Anorectl/Stl Ql Cult | ||

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. | |||

| change reason | 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.; Corrected "carbapenemase" to "carbapenem" in Component (bacteria produce carbapenemase, which makes them resistant to carbapenems) | ||
