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: Both
  • Method: Probe.amp.tar

What it does not mean

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

Key facts

Tropheryma whipplei DNA [Presence] in Implanted device by NAA with probe detection
Tropheryma whipplei DNA
In recent years, several types of bacteria have been associated with culture-negative endocarditis, including Coxiella burnetti, Tropheryma whipplei, and Bartonella species. Because cultures are sterile, diagnosis relies on other methodologies, including molecular techniques. [PMID17889492] Such infections may involve native or prosthetic valves.
