Container Units
2014-03-17
Definition: This field contains the units of measure of the container volume. If the units are ISO+ units, they should be recorded as single case abbreviations. If the units are ANS+ or L (local), the units and the source code table must be recorded, except that in this case, component delimiters should be replaced by subcomponent delimiters. For example, 1 indicates liters, whereas pt&&ANS+ indicates pints (ANSI units). The default unit is milliliters (ml), which should be assumed if no units are reported. This field repeats to accommodate all the possible specimen that will be allowed. If a container is preferred, only that container units should be messaged here with the alternate containers messaged in a repeat OM4 segment
