Erythrocytes.CD59 complete loss/100 erythrocytes in Blood   90738-6

LOINC Code


LOINC code90738-6
nameErythrocytes.CD59 complete loss/100 erythrocytes in Blood
descriptionThis assay measures the percent of red blood cells that have complete loss of the CD59 antigen. The loss of CD59 is associated with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), and patients with complete loss of CD59 are more likely to have hemolysis compared to patients with partial loss of CD59.

propertyNFr  =  Number Fraction
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.
systemBld  =  Whole blood
scaleQn  =  Quantitative:  The result of the test is a numeric value that relates to a continuous numeric scale. Reported either as an integer, a ratio, a real number, or a range. The test result value may optionally contain a relational operator from the set {<=, <, >, >=}. Valid values for a quantitative test are of the form "7", "-7", "7.4", "-7.4", "7.8912", "0.125", "<10", "<10.15", ">12000", 1-10, 1:256
