LOINC description : The Communication of Critical Results section includes notification to health care
providers of critical or discrepant findings for a patient. The section describes
the specific finding, whether it is critical or discrepant, how it was communicated
(personally or notified by another approved mode of communication for critical results),
who (e.g. name of reporting radiologist) communicated the findings, to whom (e.g.
name of requesting provider) and when (date and time). The section also states the
level of urgency (Red, Orange, Yellow, or not urgent) for the critical or discrepant
result. Red indicates the finding is potentially immediately life-threatening, Orange
indicates it could result in mortality/morbidity within 2-3 days, and Yellow indicates
it could eventually result in mortality or morbidity if not treated.;
