Primary Immunodeficiency Work-Up-6

What are immunoglobulins, and why are they measured?

Immunoglobulins, also known as antibodies, play a crucial role in the immune response. Measuring immunoglobulin levels, including IgG, IgA, IgM, and IgE, helps assess the overall immune function and detect deficiencies that may contribute to primary immunodeficiency disorders.

What is LAD screening?

LAD (Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency) screening is a diagnostic test that evaluates the ability of white blood cells to adhere to blood vessel walls properly. Defects in this process can lead to recurrent infections and may indicate a primary immunodeficiency disorder.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Neutrophil Burst Oxidase Assay is a test used to assess the ability of neutrophils (a type of white blood cell) to produce reactive oxygen species necessary for killing certain types of bacteria and fungi. It is performed to screen for Chronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD), a primary immunodeficiency disorder characterized by recurrent infections.

ADA (Adenosine Deaminase) measurement is a test used to assess the activity of the ADA enzyme in the body. Low ADA activity can be indicative of Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID), a severe primary immunodeficiency disorder that affects multiple aspects of the immune system.

The diagnostic tests mentioned in the Primary Immunodeficiency Work-Up-6 are generally safe and well-tolerated. They involve a simple blood sample collection and do not pose significant risks or side effects.

Interpreting the results requires expertise in immunology and an understanding of the specific reference ranges for each test. Your healthcare provider will assess the results in the context of your medical history and symptoms to make an accurate diagnosis.

The results of the Primary Immunodeficiency Work-Up-6 can indicate various immune system abnormalities, such as deficiencies in specific lymphocyte populations, low immunoglobulin levels, defects in leukocyte adhesion, impaired neutrophil function, or altered ADA enzyme activity. These findings can help guide further evaluation and treatment options.

While the Primary Immunodeficiency Work-Up-6 provides valuable information, the diagnosis of primary immunodeficiency disorders often requires a comprehensive evaluation, including medical history, physical examination, and additional specialized tests. These tests serve as important pieces of the diagnostic puzzle but may not provide a definitive diagnosis on their own.

The coverage for these tests may vary depending on your insurance provider and specific policy. It is recommended to check with your insurance company beforehand to determine the extent of coverage and any associated costs.

There are typically no age restrictions for the Primary Immunodeficiency Work-Up-6 tests. However, specific considerations may be required for infants or individuals with certain medical conditions. Your healthcare provider will guide you accordingly.

The frequency of these tests depends on various factors, including your medical history, symptoms, and the initial results. Your healthcare provider will determine the appropriate timing for repeat testing, if necessary.

Certain medications and underlying medical conditions can potentially influence the test results. It is important to inform your healthcare provider about any medications or medical conditions you have before undergoing these tests to ensure accurate interpretation of the results.

If your test results are abnormal, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance. They will assess your results in conjunction with your medical history and symptoms to develop an appropriate treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
