What does this test Placental Growth Factor (PLGF)- Roche (Astraia) Test identify?

Placental Growth Factor (PLGF) - Roche (Astraia) Test

The Placental Growth Factor (PLGF) test is a diagnostic test that identifies the levels of PLGF in the blood. PLGF is a protein that is produced by the placenta during pregnancy and plays a key role in promoting the growth of blood vessels in the placenta and the development of the fetus.

This test is commonly used to assess the risk of developing complications during pregnancy, such as preeclampsia, a condition characterized by high blood pressure and protein in the urine. Low levels of PLGF in the blood have been associated with an increased risk of developing preeclampsia and other pregnancy-related complications.

By measuring the levels of PLGF in the blood, healthcare providers can identify women who may be at risk of developing these complications and take appropriate measures to monitor and manage their pregnancies effectively.

Why is this test Placental Growth Factor (PLGF)- Roche (Astraia) Test taken?

Reasons for taking the Placental Growth Factor (PLGF)- Roche (Astraia) Test:

  • Assessment of fetal well-being: PLGF levels can indicate the health and growth of the placenta, which in turn affects the well-being of the fetus.
  • Preeclampsia risk assessment: Low PLGF levels are associated with an increased risk of developing preeclampsia, a serious pregnancy complication characterized by high blood pressure.
  • Monitoring of high-risk pregnancies: The test may be used to monitor pregnancies considered high-risk due to factors such as maternal age, medical history, or preexisting conditions.
  • Evaluation of placental function: PLGF levels can provide insight into the functioning of the placenta, which plays a crucial role in sustaining the pregnancy and supporting fetal development.
  • Guiding clinical management: Results of the PLGF test can help healthcare providers make informed decisions regarding the monitoring and management of pregnancy-related complications.
