Spermatozoa Motile [Presence] in Semen by Light microscopy
Active
Part Description
LP17190-7 Spermatozoa.motile
To measure motility, a simple system for grading is recommended that distinguishes spermatozoa with progressive or non-progressive motility from those that are immotile. The motility of each spermatozoon is graded as follows: Progressive motility (PR): spermatozoa moving actively, either linearly or in a large circle, regardless of speed. Non-progressive motility (NP): all other patterns of motility with an absence of progression, e.g. swimming in small circles, the flagellar force hardly displacing the head, or when only a flagellar beat can be observed.

- Change Reason
- The PrThr property is used for LOINC terms whose results are reported using an ordered categorical scale, regardless of whether or not an internal threshold was used to make that determination. This change was approved by the Laboratory LOINC Committee in June 2016.; Changed Order_Obs from 'Observation Only' to 'Both' to fit current order use cases.
