Preferred Label : Staphylococcus sp.methicillin resistant:Prid:Pt:Isolate/Specimen:Nom:Molgen;

LOINC status : ACTIVE;

LOINC display name : Staphylococcus species methicillin resistant identified Molgen Nom (Islt/Spec);

LOINC long common name : Staphylococcus species methicillin resistant identified in Isolate or Specimen by Molecular genetics method;

LOINC short name : Staph methicillin resist Islt/Spm;

LOINC description : The detection of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus species (MRSA), MSSA (methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus) and/or CoNS (Coagulase-negative Staphylococcus) in isolates or clinical specimens, such as nasal/throat, wound, groin and perineum swabs. This term was created for, but not limited in use to, the Bosch Vivalytic MRSA assay, a multiplex real-time PCR used for the detection MRSA/SA infections in healthcare settings. This MRSA assay is based on qualitative detection of nucleic acids targets in the SCCmec/orfX junction, mecA & mecC genes, and S. aureus-specific gene targets, such as SA442 or spa genes.;
