- A patient has hypertension and
complains of burning sensation when urinating. Urine culture test for
bacteria was ordered. The physician decided to adjust her Lisinopril to 10
MG. Research the LOINC, CMS and RxNorm websites to identify the LOINC
codes, HCPCS Level II codes and RXNorm name, concept unique identifier as
well as the semantic clinical drug term type. The websites are found at:

The

codes refer to the question which is required for the test and treatment. The
LOINC code for this specific test is 630-4, a common name for that is Bacteria
identified in the urine culture. The property of patient test is Prid, the
method is culture with the component Bacteria (loinc.org, 2019) . Three domains
of life are named Eubacteria, multi-division of cells leads to different
principles which are forms rodlike, spirochetal, bacillary and spiral. This
system is referred for the LP14082-9 Bacteria. In addition to the
chemotrophs which obtain their energy from the chemicals and the bacteria can
be classified by its source. Based on the structure of wall, the bacteria are
classified using the crystal violet dye is term of Gram-negative and Gram-positive.
The
RxNorm used for the specific terminologies which are helpful in keeping the
