Helicobacter pylori Ag [Presence] in Stool by Rapid immunoassay   80373-4

LOINC Code


LOINC code80373-4
nameHelicobacter pylori Ag [Presence] in Stool by Rapid immunoassay
descriptionThis term was created for, but is not limited in use to, the bioMerieux bioNexia H. pylori Ag, which is intended for the qualitative detection of Helicobacter pylori antigen in human stool specimens and the loss of Helicobacter pylori antigen following eradication treatment. The bioNexia assay takes 10-15 minutes to run once the sample has been applied to the sample well.
statusACTIVE

Fully-Specified Name

componentHelicobacter pylori Ag
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.
systemStool  =  Stool = Fecal
scaleOrd  =  Ordinal:  Ordered categorical responses, e.g., 1+, 2+, 3+; positive, negative; reactive, indeterminate, nonreactive.
methodIA.rapid

change reasonThe 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.
