| name | Vancomycin resistance vanA + vanB genes [Presence] by NAA with non-probe detection in Positive blood culture | ||
| description | Qualitative detection of the nucleic acid sequences in the bacterial vancomycin resistance vanA and/or vanB genes in positive blood culture specimens by target amplification and non-probe detection methods, such as melt curve analysis. This assay detects the presence of vanA and/or vanB genes and cannot distinguish between the two. This term was created for, but not limited in use to, the submitter's test kit, FilmArray Blood Culture Identification panel v2. | ||

Fully-Specified Name | |||
| component | Bacterial vancomycin resistance vanA+vanB genes | ||
| 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 | Bld.pos growth | ||
| scale | Ord = Ordinal: Ordered categorical responses, e.g., 1+, 2+, 3+; positive, negative; reactive, indeterminate, nonreactive. | ||
| method | Non-probe.amp.tar | ||
