Site-Specific Factor 8

Pre-Orchiectomy Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) Lab Value

Notes

**Note 1:** Record the value of the human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) test as documented in the patient record prior to orchiectomy and other treatment. **Note 2:** Use the same laboratory test to record values in **Site-Specific Factor 8, re-Orchiectomy Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) Lab Value** and **Site-Specific Factor 9, Pre-Orchiectomy Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) Range**. **Note 3:** Record a pretreatment hCG of 20 milli-International Units/milliliter (mIU/ml) as 002; record a pretreatment hCG of 11,000 mIU/ml as 200 **Note 4:** Code 000 is reserved for exactly 0.0 mIU/ml (no measurable amount of hCG). Do not round tiny values down to 0.0 mIU/ml; any measured value less than or equal to 0.1 mIU/ml should be coded 001. * For values greater than 001 mIU/ml, round values to the nearest mIU/ml. **Note 5:** A lab value expressed in International Units/liter (IU/L) is equivalent to the same value expressed in milli-International Units/milliliter (mIU/ml). **Note 6:** If the preorchiectomy hCG test is done but the actual value is not stated, use code 997. **Note 7:** For rare cases that are treated prior to orchiectomy, use code 995 in this field and record the initial hCG lab value in **Site-Specific Factor 14, Post-Orchiectomy Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) Lab Value**. **Note 8:** For rare cases that an orchiectomy is not performed, use code 996 in this field and record the initial hCG lab value in **Site-Specific Factor 14, Post-Orchiectomy Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) Lab Value**.
