Test Necessity
Doctors prescribe the HBsAg test when there are signs that suggest a hepatitis B infection, such as fatigue, dark urine, jaundice, or abdominal pain. It's also a routine screening for those at high risk, like healthcare workers or individuals with multiple sexual partners. Moreover, the test is crucial for pregnant women to prevent the disease's transmission to the baby. For those undergoing treatment for hepatitis B, the test may be repeated at intervals to monitor the effectiveness of the medication and check for the persistence of the virus.
Test Preparation
Preparing for an HBsAg test is straightforward. There are no dietary or fluid restrictions unless otherwise specified by a healthcare provider. It is, however, important to inform the doctor about any medications or supplements being taken, as certain substances can interfere with test results. Typically, no fasting is required, and patients can continue their usual diet and medication regimen. Before the test, it's advisable to wear a short-sleeved shirt or a shirt with sleeves that can be easily rolled up to facilitate the blood draw.

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 |
