What is the maximum days the report can be obtained for the test

The maximum days the report can be obtained for the test Hereditary Elliptocytosis Gene Panel is 14 days.

What are the prerequisites for the test Hereditary Elliptocytosis Gene Panel

  • Patients must have a suspected or confirmed diagnosis of hereditary elliptocytosis.
  • Patients must have a clinical suspicion of hereditary elliptocytosis based on symptoms such as anemia, jaundice, or splenomegaly.
  • Patients must have a family history of hereditary elliptocytosis.
  • Patients must have a referral from a healthcare provider for genetic testing for hereditary elliptocytosis.

What are the measure values for the test Hereditary Elliptocytosis Gene Panel

  • Alpha-spectrin (SPTA1) gene sequencing
  • Beta-spectrin (SPTB) gene sequencing
  • Ankyrin-1 (ANK1) gene sequencing
  • Beta-adducin (ADD2) gene sequencing
  • Protein 4.1R (EPB41) gene sequencing

What does this test Hereditary Elliptocytosis Gene Panel identify?

  • Hereditary Elliptocytosis Gene Panel identifies genetic mutations associated with hereditary elliptocytosis, a rare inherited blood disorder characterized by abnormally shaped red blood cells (elliptocytes). These mutations can affect the structure and function of red blood cells, leading to symptoms such as anemia, jaundice, and splenomegaly.
  • The gene panel tests for mutations in genes such as SPTA1, SPTB, ANK1, and EPB41 that are known to be associated with hereditary elliptocytosis. Identifying these mutations can help diagnose the condition, guide treatment decisions, and provide information about the risk of passing the disorder on to future generations.

Why is this test Hereditary Elliptocytosis Gene Panel taken?

Hereditary Elliptocytosis Gene Panel is taken to diagnose and confirm the presence of mutations in genes associated with hereditary elliptocytosis. This test helps in identifying the specific genetic cause of the condition, which can help in determining the appropriate treatment and management strategies for affected individuals.
