Rheumatoid Factor (RA Factor) Test in Noida - Price & Details

Our immune system is crucial for protecting us from diseases. However, certain conditions, known as immune deficiency diseases, can weaken our defence against infections. In some cases, the immune system may mistakenly produce antibodies that attack the body's own tissues.

In Rheumatoid Arthritis, the immune system mistakenly produces something called rheumatoid factor, which damages our own tissues, causing joint pain and stiffness. This condition is chronic and often affects people over 40, especially women. Some common symptoms of Rheumatoid Arthritis include stiffness and pain in more than one joint, fatigue, tiredness, fever, and weight loss.

An RA Factor test is commonly prescribed for rheumatoid arthritis diagnosis, along with other blood tests. Higher RF levels indicate a greater likelihood and severity of autoimmune diseases, but low RF levels do not necessarily exclude the possibility of underlying health issues.

The RA Factor test is crucial for diagnosing Rheumatoid Arthritis, which can cause permanent damage to joints over time. The test not only identifies RA but also assesses its severity and potential impact on organs. Additionally, if a patient is undergoing tests for conditions like autoimmune disorders, chronic infections, or certain cancers, an RF test is necessary to determine the levels of rheumatoid factor.

You don't have to fast or follow any dietary restrictions before undergoing the RA Factor test. Feel free to eat and drink normally both before and after the test. Please ensure you inform your doctor in advance about any medicines you are taking.

During the RA Factor Test

In the sample collection process, patient safety and comfort are top priorities. Our highly trained phlebotomists follow strict safety protocols. They use fresh test kits to collect samples in barcoded vials. A sterilised syringe and needle are used to draw a small amount of blood. The collected blood samples are stored in cooling containers or ice boxes to prevent degradation. The whole process is very simple and will take 3-5 minutes.
