LOINC display name : H. pylori 23S rRNA clarithromycin resistance mutation Molgen Nom (Islt/Spec);
LOINC long common name : Helicobacter pylori 23S rRNA clarithromycin resistance mutation [Identifier] by Molecular
method;
LOINC short name : H pylori 23S clarithro res mut Islt/Spm;
LOINC description : Detection of variants in the 23S rRNA gene of H. pylori responsible for Clarithromycin
resistance. Two or more mutations (e.g. A2143G and T2182C) may be detected. Testing
may be performed on a variety of specimens, including gastric tissue and stool, to
assist in treatment planning for H. pylori infections. This term was created for,
but not limited in use to, a PCR-based Caliper LabChip with sequencing technology.;
