Part Description

LP30906-9   Poikilocytosis
Poikilocytosis are abnormally shaped red blood cells (RBC) sometimes seen on blood smears of humans and many wild and domestic animals. They are more common in some apparently normal small ruminants, particularly goats. Normal RBC are round, flattened disks that are thinner in the middle than at the edges, whereas a poikilocyte is either a distortion of that normal shape or an entirely different shape. Generally, poikilocytosis refers to an increase in abnormal RBC of any shape where they make up 10% or more of the total red cell population. Poikilocytosis is a rather general condition rather than a specific one. Copyright Text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License.

Mapping Guidance Regenstrief Help Most laboratories will report such findings as answers in their RBC morphology term [LOINC: 6742-1]. Others will report each observed finding as a separate variable, such as this one, and assign values of 1+, 2+, 3+. Mapper’s Guide for the Top 2000 plus LOINC Laboratory Observations

Change Reason
The PrThr property is used for LOINC terms whose results are reported using an ordered categorical scale, regardless of whether or not an internal threshold was used to make that determination. This change was approved by the Laboratory LOINC Committee in June 2016.
