LOINC Code 85808-4: MuV RNA and SH gene panel NAA+probe (Specimen)

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 Mumps virus RNA & SH gene panel. It is commonly used with the system or sample type XXX.

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: 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

• Mumps virus RNA and SH gene panel - Specimen by NAA with probe detection
• Mumps virus RNA & SH gene panel
• This panel contains terms for reporting qualitative and quantitative (Ct) results for mumps virus RNA in various specimens. Typically, the SH gene is targeted and used for genotyping and phylogenetic analysis of mumps virus isolates.
