Anti Phospholipid Antibody IgM near me in Noida

The Anti Phospholipid Antibody IgM is a blood test that is used to detect the levels of specific antibody immunoglobulin M (IgM) that target phospholipids, the essential components of cell membranes. This test aids in diagnosing autoimmune disorders such as antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), which can increase the risk of thrombotic events. It is widely available with Tata 1mg labs at an affordable price in Noida. 

This test is usually recommended for individuals who have had unexplained blood clots, multiple miscarriages, or other signs associated with APS, such as strokes or recurrent pregnancy loss. It can differentiate between primary APS (occurs in the absence of any other autoimmune disease) and secondary APS (exists predominantly with another autoimmune disease ). The test can also be used to monitor disease activity and assess treatment effectiveness in individuals diagnosed with APS or other autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). It can be suggested for patients with a history of venous or arterial clotting and unexplained pregnancy complications to assess the risk of developing future blood clots and to formulate effective treatment such as anticoagulation therapy. Furthermore, this test may help in diagnosing APS in its early stages, as the presence of IgM antibodies may indicate an ongoing or recent immune response.

For this test, a duly filled coagulation requisition form (Annexure - CR/05) is mandatory for sample collection. This form can be provided by the laboratory personnel (phlebotomist) before sample withdrawal. It is also recommended to discontinue heparin for 1 day and oral anticoagulants for 7 days before sample collection, or as per advised by your doctor.
