LOINC Code 79211-9: Chr X and Y aneuploidy risk Sequencing Ql (cfDNA) [Interp]

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 Fetal chromosome X & Y aneuploidy risk. It is commonly used with the system or sample type Plas.cfDNA.

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: Sequencing

What it does not mean

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

Key facts

• Fetal Chromosome X and Y aneuploidy risk [interpretation] in Plasma cell-free DNA Qualitative by Sequencing
• Fetal chromosome X & Y aneuploidy risk
• The risk interpretation (e.g. increased risk) of chromosome X & Y aneuploidy present in fetal cell-free DNA from maternal plasma. This term was created for, but not limited in use to, QNatal Advanced, a non-invasive prenatal test which uses massively parallel sequencing to identify chromosome X & Y aneuploidy.
