LOINC Code 94593-1: Multiplex allergen panel
94593-1 is a LOINC code used to identify Multiplex allergen panel in laboratory and clinical observation data. You may see this code in lab systems, lab reports, EHR exports, interoperability feeds, or other structured clinical data exchanges. LOINC codes identify tests, measurements, observations, survey items, and clinical questions in a standardized way. It is associated with the component Multiplex allergen panel. It is commonly used with the system or sample type Ser/Plas.
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 Multiplex allergen panel. It is commonly used with the system or sample type Ser/Plas.
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
What it does not mean
- The code identifies the observation or test, not the actual result.
Key facts
- Multiplex allergen panel - Serum or Plasma
- Multiplex allergen panel
- This panel code contains results for a multiplex allergen assay for the detection and quantification of multiple allergies in a single assay. Child elements for this panel are not listed since results will vary, depending on the assay used. This term was created for, but not limited in use to, the submitter's assay, ALEX Allergy Explorer2, a quantitative in vitro diagnostic test for the measurement of allergen specific IgE (sIgE) and a semi-quantitative in vitro diagnostic test for the measurement of total IgE (tIgE) in human serum or non-EDTA plasma. Similar multiplex allergen assays, such as the Immuno Solid-phase Allergen Chip (ISAC) (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Phadia, Sweden), can also be ordered and reported (overall study report) using this LOINC code. Both the ALEX Allergy Explorer and ISAC assays test for over 100 different allergens. LOINC codes specific for each allergen can be used to report the separate results provided within the multiplex allergen report.
