LOINC display name : E. coli and K. pneumoniae and P. aeruginosa rRNA FISH Nom (Pos bld culture);
LOINC long common name : Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae and Pseudomonas aeruginosa rRNA [Identifier]
by FISH in Positive blood culture;
LOINC short name : Ecoli Kpneu Paeru rRNA Bld Pos FISH;
LOINC description : Escherichia coli and/or Klebsiella pneumoniae and/or Pseudomonas aeruginosa commonly
isolated from human blood cultures can be detected by qualitative, multicolor nucleic
acid hybridization assays. Testing is performed to help clinicians determine appropriate
antimicrobial therapy for patients with Gram-negative bacteremia. This code is based
on, but not limited in use to, a submission for AdvanDx's GNR Traffic Light PNA FISH
assay. The test is done on blood cultures that have positive growth of an organism,
not directly from a blood sample.;
