Test ID: HIVQR
HIV-1 RNA Quantification with Reflex to HIV-1 Genotypic Drug Resistance Mutation Analysis, Plasma
Secondary ID 
A test code used for billing and in test definitions created prior to November 2011
13035
NY State Approved Indicates the status of NY State approval and if the test is orderable for NY State clients.
Yes
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Quantifying plasma HIV-1 RNA levels (viral load) in HIV-1-infected patients, followed by genotypic determination of viral resistance to anti-HIV drugs
Guiding initiation or change of anti-HIV treatment regimens
Reflex Tests Lists test(s) that may or may not be performed, at an additional charge, depending on the result and interpretation of the initial test(s)
| Test ID | Reporting Name | Available Separately | Always Performed |
|---|---|---|---|
| GHIV | HIV-1 Genotypic Drug Resistance, P | Yes | No |
Testing Algorithm Delineates situation(s) when tests are added to the initial order. This includes reflex and additional tests.
If HIV-1 RNA titer is > or =1,000 copies/mL, then HIV-1 genotypic drug resistance mutations will be determined at an additional charge.
