Frequently Asked Questions
What does this test measure?
This test measures mutations in the HBB gene, which are responsible for beta thalassemia. Understanding these mutations helps in diagnosing the condition and planning appropriate treatment.
Who should take this test?
Individuals with a family history of beta thalassemia or those showing symptoms such as fatigue and pallor should consider this test. It is also recommended for routine screening in certain populations.
How do I prepare for this test?
Preparation involves providing a blood sample of 4 mL (3 mL minimum) in a Lavender top (EDTA) tube. Ensure that clinical history is documented and informed consent is given prior to the test.
What do the results mean?
Results indicate whether mutations in the HBB gene are present. Abnormal results may suggest the presence of beta thalassemia, requiring further evaluation and management.
How long until I get my results?
The turnaround time for results is typically 15 to 20 days. Results will be communicated through the designated method as specified during the testing process.
