LOINC Code 80596-0: Rhinovirus 5' UTR RNA NAA+probe Ql (Nph)

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 Rhinovirus 5' UTR RNA. It is commonly used with the system or sample type Nph.

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.

Key facts

• Rhinovirus 5' UTR RNA [Presence] in Nasopharynx by NAA with probe detection
• Rhinovirus 5' UTR RNA
• Detection of targeted nucleic acid sequences in the Rhinovirus 5 prime untranslated region (5' UTR) RNA by PCR-based methods. This term was created for, but not limited in use to, the Verigene® Respiratory Pathogens Flex Nucleic Acid Test (RP Flex), a multiplexed, qualitative test for the detection and identification of multiple viral and bacterial genetic virulence markers from nasopharyngeal swab specimens.
