Couple of questions for LOINC Mapping

[Saad Mohsin]

HI,

I have few specific questions regarding LOINC Codes

1. Is there any way we can find the mapping for Loinc codes to the UCUM units.

2. Is there any mapping related to Normal range of Loinc Codes

3. Is there any mapping where we can find the mapping of Loinc codes with there groups for Example when we choose basic metabolic panel as test we get result back of following items.

 
<table border=”0″ width=”160″ cellspacing=”0″ cellpadding=”0″><colgroup><col style=”mso-width-source: userset; mso-width-alt: 5851; width: 120pt;” width=”160″ /> </colgroup>
<tbody>
<tr style=”height: 15.0pt;”>
<td class=”xl63″ style=”height: 15.0pt; width: 120pt;” width=”160″ height=”20″>SODIUM</td>
</tr>
<tr style=”height: 15.0pt;”>
<td class=”xl63″ style=”height: 15.0pt; border-top: none;” height=”20″>POTASSIUM</td>
</tr>
<tr style=”height: 15.0pt;”>
<td class=”xl63″ style=”height: 15.0pt; border-top: none;” height=”20″>CHLORIDE</td>
</tr>
<tr style=”height: 15.0pt;”>
<td class=”xl63″ style=”height: 15.0pt; border-top: none;” height=”20″>CO2</td>
</tr>
<tr style=”height: 15.0pt;”>
<td class=”xl63″ style=”height: 15.0pt; border-top: none;” height=”20″>ANION GAP</td>
</tr>
<tr style=”height: 15.0pt;”>
<td class=”xl63″ style=”height: 15.0pt; border-top: none;” height=”20″>GLUCOSE</td>
</tr>
<tr style=”height: 15.0pt;”>
<td class=”xl63″ style=”height: 15.0pt; border-top: none;” height=”20″>BUN</td>
</tr>
<tr style=”height: 15.0pt;”>
<td class=”xl63″ style=”height: 15.0pt; border-top: none;” height=”20″>CREATININE</td>
</tr>
<tr style=”height: 15.0pt;”>
<td class=”xl63″ style=”height: 15.0pt; border-top: none;” height=”20″>BUN/CREAT</td>
</tr>
<tr style=”height: 15.0pt;”>
<td class=”xl63″ style=”height: 15.0pt; border-top: none;” height=”20″>CALCIUM</td>
</tr>
<tr style=”height: 15.0pt;”>
<td class=”xl63″ style=”height: 15.0pt; border-top: none;” height=”20″>ESTIMATED GFR (CALC)
