Aldosterone [Mass/volume] in Serum or Plasma by Radioimmunoassay (RIA)   92896-0

LOINC Code


LOINC code92896-0
nameAldosterone [Mass/volume] in Serum or Plasma by Radioimmunoassay (RIA)
descriptionAldosterone concentration measured by radioimmunoassay (RIA) and chemiluminescent immunoassay are well-correlated; however, they have different reference ranges. [PMID: 29115296] This term is for aldosterone measurement by RIA. For aldosterone concentration measured by immunoassay methods such as chemiluminescence, see [LOINC: 92897-8].

Fully-Specified Name

componentAldosterone
propertyMCnc  =  Mass Concentration
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.
systemSer/Plas
    Ser  =  Serum
    Plas  =  Plasma
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
methodRIA  =  Radioimmunoassay
