LOINC Code 74317-9: PRRSV European strain RNA NAA+probe (Specimen) [ThreshNum]

What is this code?

LOINC codes identify tests, measurements, observations, survey items, and clinical questions in a standardized way. It is associated with the component Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus European strain RNA. It is commonly used with the system or sample type XXX.

When is it used?

• Used in lab systems, EHRs, and clinical data exchange.
• May identify a test, observation, survey item, or clinical document request rather than a diagnosis.
• Status: ACTIVE
• Order vs observation: Both
• Method: Probe.amp.tar

What it does not mean

• The code identifies the observation or test, not the actual result.

Key facts

• PRRSV European strain RNA [Cycle Threshold #] in Specimen by NAA with probe detection
• Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus European strain RNA
• Real-time reverse transcriptase PCR targeting Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) European strain RNA and reported as cross threshold (Ct) value. The submitter's lab uses primers and probes tuned to the European strains for comparison to the North American strains.
