Description

The HBsAg test is a simple blood test that checks for the presence of Hepatitis B. It helps identify immunity to the virus, past exposure or if the infection exists presently. HBsAg test shows if the Hepatitis infection currently exists in your body and if you run the risk of passing it to others. The HBsAg test is used in the diagnosis of Hepatitis in cases where symptoms including pain, loss of appetite, discolouration of the skin, urine and stool or fatigue are experienced. Although difficult to ascertain, some of the risk factors that could cause Hepatitis include passing or exchanging body fluids, blood and semen. While the HBsAg blood test is important when your doctor notices any of these symptoms, it may also be suggested if you have recently travelled to places where Hepatitis is common. Hepatitis B is the most common yet serious liver condition. Known as a silent epidemic, it is hard to know when you have been infected since there are no visible symptoms in the initial stages. Today, Hepatitis B can be easily diagnosed with the HBsAg blood test and treated quickly. Book your HBsAg test through PharmEasy in Bengaluru today, ensuring your health is in trusted hands.

Test Necessity

Hepatitis B can be a deadly disease if it is not treated on time. There can be various complications caused by this disease such as liver failure. Therefore, detection of hepatitis B surface antigen becomes a crucial checkpoint for proper diagnosis and treatment.

If you are having symptoms like fever, fatigue, vomiting, loss of appetite, pain in the lower abdomen, or swollen blood vessels, your doctor may ask you to take an HBsAg test for confirmation. With PharmEasy Labs your report can be ready within a short period so that you can consult your doctor for an appropriate treatment plan.

Test Preparation

The level of HBsAg is not affected by the type of food items you consume. Therefore, HBsAg does not require any fasting before the test. You can drink a good amount of water before the test for accurate results. However, if your doctor has assigned more tests along with HBsAg, you may require fasting as per the requirement. It is helpful to consult your doctor regarding this.

During the HBsAg Test

The HBsAg test is done by evaluating the amount of HBsAg in your blood serum. For this, a blood sample is collected by an experienced phlebotomist. He will visit your home to collect the sample with the help of sterile syringes. A vein finder will be used to locate your vein. After that, the blood is collected in a collection tube. In the testing lab, the sample is allowed to clot so that the serum can be extracted. The test is performed using a very hygienic procedure.

Test Result Interpretation

While the blood culture does examine HBsAg, the readings can only be comprehended when the complete Hepatitis B test panel has been taken into consideration.

Unlike many other tests, the HBsAg screening test does not contain values and ranges. Instead, it only indicates whether the individual is positive or negative on the parameters examined. The HBsAg test by ELISA or CLIA method gives a quantitative value of the HBsAg. The permutation of positives and negatives on the three readings leads to certain conclusions. However, since it is rather complex, the HBsAg test report is best studied by a doctor.

HBsAg Hepatitis B Surface Antigen	HBsAb Hepatitis B surface Antibody	HBcAb Hepatitis B Core Antibody	Interpretation
