• May identify a test, observation, survey item, or clinical document request rather than a diagnosis.
• Status: ACTIVE
• Order vs observation: Order
• Panel type: Panel
• Method: Probe.amp.tar

What it does not mean

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

Key facts

• Herpes simplex virus 1 and 2 DNA panel - Anogenital specimen by Probe and target amplification method
• Herpes simplex virus 1 & 2 DNA panel
• This panel contains separate terms to report the results for herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) and herpes simplex virus 2 (HSV-2) DNA tests. It was created for, but is not limited in use to, the Roche cobas® HSV 1 and 2 Test, which is intended for use as an aid in diagnosis of anogenital HSV-1 and HSV-2 infections in symptomatic patients. The cobas HSV 1 and 2 Test is not FDA cleared for use with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and is not intended to be used for prenatal screening or for individuals under the age of 18 years.
