The dilution of the specimen made prior to being loaded onto analytical equipment

  RERUNhttp://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v3-ActCodeRerun Dilution

The value of the dilution of a sample after it had been analyzed at a prior dilution value

  EVNFCTShttp://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v3-ActCodeActSpecObsEvntfctsCode

Domain provides codes that qualify the ActLabObsEnvfctsCode domain. (Environmental Factors)

  INTFRhttp://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v3-ActCodeActSpecObsInterferenceCode

An observation that relates to factors that may potentially cause interference with the observation

  FIBRINhttp://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v3-ActCodeFibrin

The Fibrin Index of the specimen. In the case of only differentiating between Absent and Present, recommend using 0 and 1

  HEMOLYSIShttp://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v3-ActCodeHemolysis

An observation of the hemolysis index of the specimen in g/L

  ICTERUShttp://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v3-ActCodeIcterus

  CONSUMPTIONhttp://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v3-ActCodeConsumption Volume

The quantity of specimen that is used each time the equipment uses this substance

  CURRENThttp://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v3-ActCodeCurrent Volume

The initial quantity of the specimen in inventory


Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:

Level A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies
System The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere)
Code The code (used as the code in the resource instance)
Display The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application
Definition An explanation of the meaning of the concept
Comments Additional notes about how to use the code
