SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) RNA [Log #/volume] (viral load) in Specimen by NAA with probe detection   94819-0

LOINC Code


LOINC code94819-0
nameSARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) RNA [Log #/volume] (viral load) in Specimen by NAA with probe detection
descriptionQuantitative detection of SARS coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) viral load in a specimen, such as a nasopharyngeal swab, blood, serum, or stool, by nucleic acid amplification with probe-based detection. The viral load reflects how well a virus is replicating in an infected person. A high viral load for SARS-CoV-2 indicates a significant amount of coronavirus is present in the patient.

Fully-Specified Name

componentSARS coronavirus 2 RNA
propertyLnCnc  =  Log Number 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.
systemXXX
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
