LOINC display name : Soluble CD14 Subtype (Presepsin) IA (S/P/Bld) [Mass/Vol];
LOINC long common name : Soluble CD14 subtype [Mass/volume] in Serum, Plasma or Blood by Immunoassay;
LOINC short name : sCD14-ST SerPlBld IA-mCnc;
LOINC description : Quantitative mass concentration of soluble CD14-subtype (sCD14-ST, also known as Presepsin)
in whole blood, serum or plasma for the diagnosis and prognosis of sepsis and to monitor
the course of the disease. This test may be performed on neonates or immunosupressed
patients (e.g. post-transplantation) in which other inflammation markers (e.g. IL-6,
CRP, procalcitonin) are elevated due to other factors, including post-surgery systemic
inflammatory response or administration of anti-thymocyte globulin.;
