Version 2.78

Maturity: Beta

  1. The LOINC Groups project is a work in progress. The contents of this file may change from release to release as we receive feedback from users and refine our processes.
  2. The contents of the file and the groupings MUST be validated by the user prior to implementation in any aspect of clinical care. We have created Groups that may be useful in specific contexts, but these Groups have not been vetted for use in either patient care or research and should be used with caution.
  3. More information on LOINC Groups is available on our website.

Group Description

This parent group contains a single group of LOINC terms related to smoking status and smoke exposure, regardless of whether the exposure is primary or secondary. This group is defined primarily by string matching for key words, since there is no single unifying aspect for all of the LOINC terms contained in the group. Feedback about missing concepts or terms that should not be included is welcome.
