Preferred Label : Hepatitis D virus RNA:ACnc:Pt:Ser/Plas:Qn:Probe.amp.tar;
LOINC status : ACTIVE;
LOINC display name : HDV RNA NAA probe Qn;
LOINC long common name : Hepatitis D virus RNA [Units/volume] (viral load) in Serum or Plasma by NAA with probe
detection;
LOINC short name : HDV RNA SerPl NAA probe-aCnc;
LOINC description : HDV screening of all Chronic Hepatitis B (CHB) patients is recommended and HDV viral
load (HDVL) detection and measurement should be considered whether or not the patients
already have antibodies to HDV. In CHB patients, HDV can occur as a co-infection or
superinfection and the course of the disease may be accelerated. [PMID: 24293018]
This term was created for, but is not limited in use to, ARUP Laboratories' Hepatitis
Delta Virus Quantitative Real Time RT-PCR assay. The viral load is reported in IU/mL.
The IU conversion factor, as determined by validation, is 1 IU/mL 138 copies/mL.;
