Overview
Hepatitis B is a form of liver disease, caused by the Hepatitis B virus. An undiagnosed case of Hepatitis B can lead to life-threatening conditions like liver cirrhosis or liver cancer. When there is an infection of hepatitis B, Hepatitis B surface antigen flows into the bloodstream. To determine the seriousness of the infection, your doctor refers to the quantitative analysis of HBsAg test results.
The test is based on antigen vs antibody interaction. This is done with the help of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay or ELISA. If there is a positive reaction with your blood in the test, there is a possibility of a hepatitis B infection. The test results can also determine whether the infection is acute or chronic.
The HBsAg test package offered by PharmEasy consists of one protein assay test (ELISA or CLIA) which determines the amount of HBsAg protein in the bloodstream. If you are looking for accurate results, you should book an HBsAg test with PharmEasy today!
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.
