98604-2

LOINC code 98604-2 identifies "Nerve conduction study panel Nerve". This panel contains individual panels that hold the collections of terms used to report the discrete results for various parts of a nerve conduction study (NCS), including sensory, motor, F-wave, repetitive motor stimulation, and needle electromyography (EMG) studies. Specific panels are included for the sensory and motor parts of the NCS for commonly studied nerves, and results for any additional nerves studied as well as F-wave, repetitive motor stimulation, and EMG should be reported using the terms contained in the generic panels ([LOINC: 98696-8] for sensory nerve conduction; [LOINC: 98703-2] for motor nerve conduction; [LOINC: 98704-0] for F-wave; [LOINC: 98706-5] for repetitive motor stimulation; and [LOINC: 98716-4] for EMG).

This code measures Nerve conduction study panel in Nerve. It belongs to the PANEL.NEURO class in the LOINC classification.

LOINC (Logical Observation Identifiers Names and Codes) is a universal standard for identifying laboratory and clinical observations. It is maintained by the Regenstrief Institute and used worldwide for health data exchange.
