LOINC display name : E. coli DNA NAA non-probe Ql (Pos bld culture);
LOINC long common name : Escherichia coli DNA [Presence] by NAA with non-probe detection in Positive blood
culture;
LOINC short name : E coli DNA Bld Pos Ql NAA non-probe;
LOINC description : Qualitative detection of nucleic acid sequences in Escherichia coli DNA in positive
blood culture specimens by target amplification and non-probe detection methods, such
as melt curve analysis. This term was created for, but not limited in use to, the
submitter's test kit, FilmArray Blood Culture Identification panel v2. This assay
does not differentiate between E coli, the primary pathogen of interest, and various
Shigella species, which are both phenotypically and genetically similar to E coli
but rarely isolated from blood culture.;
