LOINC Code 74871-5: Rivaroxaban Chromogenic method (PPP) [Mass/Vol]

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 Rivaroxaban. It is commonly used with the system or sample type PPP.

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: Chromo

What it does not mean

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

Key facts

• Rivaroxaban [Mass/volume] in Platelet poor plasma by Chromogenic method
• Rivaroxaban
• Chromogenic quantitative assay performed on plasma using either manual or automated methods to manage administration of Factor Xa Direct Inhibitors (DIXals) such as Rivaroxaban. This assay should not be used for indirect inhibitors like Fondaparinux or heparins. BIOPHEN DiXal (Direct Xa Inhibitors) Ref 221030 Chromogenic assay for Direct Factor Xa inhibitors (DiXals)
