name
Influenza virus A Ag [Presence] in Upper respiratory specimen by Rapid immunoassay
description
This term was created for, but is not limited in use to, the Influenza A part of the bioMerieux bioNexia Influenza A+B test, which is intended for the qualitative detection and differentiation of Influenza type A and type B antigens in human nasopharyngeal samples. The results of the bioNexia assay should be read ten minutes after the sample is applied to the sample well.

component
Influenza virus A Ag
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.

change reason
Release 2.77: SYSTEM: Updated to standardize the representation of "Respiratory system specimen" in the System subhierarchy across LOINC; Release 2.70: SYSTEM: Updated from "Nph" to make the LOINC term consistent with the original intent to represent a manufacturer's test covering NPH washes and nose swabs, as well as to make it consistent across panel usage.; Previous Releases: Corrected System from "Nasopharynx", which is used for LOINC clinical terms, to "Nph", which is the form used for LOINC lab terms.; 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.
