Concepts

This case-sensitive code system http://terminology.hl7.org/CodeSystem/v2-0937 defines the following codes in a Is-A hierarchy:

Code	Display	Definition	V2 Concept Comment	V2 Concept Comment As Published
AOE	Ask at Order Entry	Ask at Order Entry	Sub-type of QST (Question) - OBX-5 value is answer to an Ask at Order Entry question	Sub-type of QST (Question) - OBX-5 value is answer to an Ask at Order Entry question
ASC	Ask at Specimen Collection	Ask at Specimen Collection	Sub-type of QST (Question) - OBX-5 value is answer to an Ask at Specimen Collection question	Sub-type of QST (Question) - OBX-5 value is answer to an Ask at Specimen Collection question
MCS	Micro Culture Status	Sub-type of RSLT (Result) This term identifies observations that give overall culture outcome, when no specific organism is being named.	Examples are: no growth, normal flora
MID	Micro Isolate Descriptor	Sub-type of RSLT (Result) This term identifies any other observations about the isolate.	Examples: catalase positive, hemolytic, etc.
MIG	Micro Isolate Growth Quantity	Sub-type of RSLT (Result) This term identifies growth levels of an isolate – can be numeric or categorical.	Examples: <10,000 CFU, >100,00 CFU, Few, Moderate, Many, etc.
MIN	Micro Isolate Name	Sub-type of RSLT (Result) This term identifies observations that name a specific organism either at the species or the genus level.	Examples are: Genus Serratia, Neisseria meningitidis, Escherichia coli O157:H7, but also identification on a culture plate like presumptive Proteus species.
MIR	Micro Isolate Related	Micro Isolate Related	Sub-type of RSLT (Result) - qualifies the result as an isolate.	Sub-type of RSLT (Result) - qualifies the result as an isolate.
MIRM	Micro Isolate Related Modifier	Micro Isolate Related Modifier	Sub-type of RSLT (Result) - result is a modifier of the isolate (e.g., Few, Some, etc.)	Sub-type of RSLT (Result) - result is a modifier of the isolate (e.g., Few, Some, etc.)
MNIR	Micro Non-Isolate Related	Micro Non-Isolate Related	Sub-type of RSLT (Result) - qualifies result as microbiology not related to any isolate (e.g., gram stain observations)	Sub-type of RSLT (Result) - qualifies result as microbiology not related to any isolate (e.g., gram stain observations)
MOD	Micro Other Descriptor	Sub-type of RSLT (Result) This term identifies observations that do not fit the culture status, but is not at the isolate level.
MSS	Micro Sample Stain	Sub-type of RSLT (Result) This term identifies observations on gram stains (and other stains or smears) on the clinical sample.	Examples are: many gram positive rods, acid fast bacteria seen, etc.
SUP	Supplemental Result	Supplemental Result	Sub-type of RSLT (Result) - result coming over is additional material, for example points on a graph, an image, raw instrument data, links to related observations, etc.	Sub-type of RSLT (Result) - result coming over is additional material, for example points on a graph, an image, raw instrument data, links to related observations, etc.
SUR	Susceptibility Related	Susceptibility Related	Sub-type of RSLT (Result) - result value is for micro susceptibility/sensitivity	Sub-type of RSLT (Result) - result value is for micro susceptibility/sensitivity
UNSP	Unspecified	Unspecified	Sub-type of RSLT (Result) - result falls outside of the other sub-types.	Sub-type of RSLT (Result) - result falls outside of the other sub-types.
