Version 2.79

Term Description

This lab test is used as pregnancy test

Part Description

LP14329-4   Choriogonadotropin.beta subunit
The presence of the Choriogonadotropin beta subunit (B HCG) in plasma or serum shortly after conception followed by its rapid rise in concentration makes it an excellent marker for confirmation and monitoring of pregnancy. Used only for pregnancy testing. HCG done at 16-20 weeks of pregnancy for the purpose of finding a M.O.M. value and to determine risk of a defect in the fetus. Source: Regenstrief Institute

Change Reason
Release 2.79: COMPONENT: changed due to changes in modeling heuristics, and in preparation for post-coordination; METHOD_TYP: changed due to changes in modeling heuristics, and in preparation for post-coordination; SHORTNAME: changed due to changes in modeling heuristics, and in preparation for post-coordination; LONG_COMMON_NAME: changed due to changes in modeling heuristics, and in preparation for post-coordination; Previous Releases: Clarified that the ordinal(pos/neg) test for urine and serum and are are not otherwise special (e.g multiple of the median) are usually used as pregnancy tests.; 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.
