Staphylococcus aureus methicillin resistance SCCmec orfX junction:PrThr:Pt:Nose:Ord:Probe.amp.tar

Preferred Label : Staphylococcus aureus methicillin resistance SCCmec orfX junction:PrThr:Pt:Nose:Ord:Probe.amp.tar;

LOINC status : ACTIVE;

LOINC display name : MRSA SCCmec orfX junction NAA probe Ql (Nose);

LOINC long common name : Staphylococcus aureus methicillin resistance SCCmec orfX junction [Presence] in Nose by NAA with probe detection;

LOINC short name : MRSA SCCmec orfX Nose Ql NAA probe;

LOINC description : This assay is not intended to diagnose MRSA infections nor to guide or monitor treatment. This term was created for, but not limited in use to, the submitter's BD GeneOhm MRSA Assay test kit which directly detects, through the presence of SCCmec cassette at the orfX junction, nasal colonization by methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA) to aid in the prevention and control of infections in healthcare settings, for patients at risk.;
