Status Information
- Status
- DEPRECATED
- Comment
- Based on extensive review of mappings and usage across Canada, Canada Health Infoway found that the limited use LABORDER codes are not being used. CHI and the Laboratory LOINC Committee agreed that these codes should be deprecated in order to minimize inadvertent mapping of observations to these terms (as has been reported).

Term Description
Created ONLY for ORDERING in response to request from Canada Health Infoway- a national standardization effort. The dashes in this case mean that the ordering provider does not care what property or scale is used in the observation performed in response to this order. LOINC is still pondering details about how this kind of item should be represented. So the representation might change in the future, but the term will still have the same usage and meaning.
Part Description
LP16428-2 Hemoglobin F
Hemoglobin F is used to screen for fetal-to-maternal hemorrrhage. The presence of fetal red cells in the maternal circulation may be identified by use of the acid elution principle first described by Kleihauer, Brown, and Betke, or by several modifications. Very small volumes of red cells commonly escape from the fetal intravascular compartment across the placental barrier into the maternal intervillous space.
