Lactobacillus crispatus+gasseri+jensenii + Gardnerella vaginalis + Atopobium vaginae rRNA [Presence] in Vaginal fluid by NAA with probe detection   94420-7

LOINC Code


LOINC code94420-7
nameLactobacillus crispatus+gasseri+jensenii + Gardnerella vaginalis + Atopobium vaginae rRNA [Presence] in Vaginal fluid by NAA with probe detection
descriptionQualitative result for bacterial vaginosis (BV) based on the detection and quantitation of ribosomal RNA from bacteria associated with bacterial vaginosis (BV), including Lactobacillus (L. gasseri, L. crispatus, and L. jensenii), Gardnerella vaginalis, and Atopobium vaginae. This term is used to report a qualitative result for BV and does not report results for individual organisms. It is intended to aid in the diagnosis of BV. This term was created for, but not limited in use to, the Hologic Aptima BV assay, which detects the bacteria associated with BV on vaginal swab specimens from females with a clinical presentation consistent with vaginitis and/or vaginosis.

Fully-Specified Name

componentLactobacillus crispatus+gasseri+jensenii+Gardnerella vaginalis+Atopobium vaginae rRNA
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.
systemVag  =  Vagina
scaleOrd  =  Ordinal:  Ordered categorical responses, e.g., 1+, 2+, 3+; positive, negative; reactive, indeterminate, nonreactive.
