LOINC Code 97954-2: Rhinovirus+Enterovirus A+B+C RNA NAA+probe Ql (Respiratory system 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 Rhinovirus+Enterovirus A+B+C RNA. It is commonly used with the system or sample type Respiratory System Specimen.

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

• Rhinovirus+Enterovirus A+B+C RNA [Presence] in Respiratory system specimen by NAA with probe detection
• Rhinovirus+Enterovirus A+B+C RNA
• This test detects RNA from all human Rhinoviruses species (A-C) and specifically human Enterovirus species A, B, and C (not D). Results for this test are ordinal (e.g. positive, negative) and do not differentiate between these species.
