Get Lipid Panel and its associated concepts

Hi!,

I’m a bit lost when I’m looking for the term (24331-1) “Lipid 1996 panel - Serum or Plasma” and its child terms (LDL, HLDL, VLDL, etc) as shown on the Loinc page.

I checked the $lookup and $expand operations before and I can’t get the response as I mentioned.

Am I doing something wrong or do I have to build my own ValueSet with these terms for 24331-1?

Could you please give me a hint ?

Marc

Hi Marc,

You logged this under the FHIR terminology server, so I take it you haven’t downloaded the associated files? There is an accessory file under https://loinc.org/downloads/accessory-files/ for LOINC Panels and Forms file. That is one way to obtain the collection of the lipid group 24331-1.

I’ll defer to Regenstrief staff if there’s a different path through their FHIR server.

All the best,

Pam Banning, Lab LOINC co-chair

That’s my intention! I want to to search and get the term and childs through the FHIR terminology server !!

Is there a way to do that?

 

Kind regards

Marc

Marc,

The children are available as part of a FHIR Questionnaire resource. You should be able to see it with this query https://fhir.loinc.org/Questionnaire/24331-1 . Here’s a link to the detail page that is represented by the FHIR resource https://loinc.org/24331-1/ .

Regards,

John

Thanks John for the answer. I tried that on your server fhir.loinc.org succesfully.

Just one more question: I uploaded Loinc 2.68 on a hapi fhir server through the $upload-terminology. I noticed that Questionare resources weren’t uploaded. Is it possible to do that? Could you tell me how to?

Kind regards,

Marc

Marcelo,

Please contact me directly at https://loinc.org/contact/ about this request. Use the “FHIR terminology Server” option.
