LOINC Code 78010-6: HIV 1 proviral DNA NAA+probe (Mononuclear cells from unspecified specimen) [Entitic log #]

78010-6 is a LOINC code used to identify HIV 1 proviral DNA NAA+probe (Mononuclear cells from unspecified specimen) [Entitic log #] in laboratory and clinical observation data. You may see this code in lab systems, lab reports, EHR exports, interoperability feeds, or other structured clinical data exchanges. LOINC codes identify tests, measurements, observations, survey items, and clinical questions in a standardized way. It is associated with the component HIV 1 proviral DNA. It is commonly used with the system or sample type XXX MC.

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 HIV 1 proviral DNA. It is commonly used with the system or sample type XXX MC.

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: Observation
  • Method: Probe.amp.tar

What it does not mean

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