ARTHRITIS PROFILE

Original price was: ₹4,850.00.Current price is: ₹3,500.00.

An arthritis profile is a series of blood tests used to help diagnose and assess arthritis, focusing on inflammatory markers and autoimmune activityIt can help determine the type and severity of arthritis and guide treatment plans. 

Here’s a more detailed explanation:
    • Purpose:

      The arthritis profile helps doctors understand the underlying causes of arthritis, differentiate between different types (like rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis), and monitor the effectiveness of treatment. 

  • Tests Included:

    Common tests in an arthritis profile include:

  • C-reactive protein (CRP): A marker of inflammation in the body. 
  • Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR): Another marker of inflammation. 
  • Rheumatoid factor (RF): A protein found in the blood of people with rheumatoid arthritis. 
  • Anti-CCP antibodies: A type of autoantibody found in people with rheumatoid arthritis. 
  • Antinuclear antibodies (ANA): Autoantibodies that can be elevated in various autoimmune conditions. 
  • Complete blood count (CBC): A general blood test that can reveal signs of inflammation or infection. 
  • Uric acid: Elevated levels can indicate gout, a type of arthritis. 
  • Antistreptolysin O (ASO): An antibody that can be elevated after a streptococcal infection, which can sometimes trigger arthritis. 
  • How it’s done:

    The arthritis profile is typically a blood test, but may also include a urine sample. 

  • Interpreting Results:

    Elevated levels of inflammatory markers (CRP, ESR) or the presence of certain autoantibodies (RF, anti-CCP) can suggest arthritis or other autoimmune conditions. 

  • Types of Arthritis:
    The tests can help differentiate between different types of arthritis, such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and other inflammatory conditions.

Comment: Recommended as a follow up test if Anti Nuclear Antibody/Factor is positive in Z260 ARTHRITIS PANEL 1. Also see RHEUMATOID tests, LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUS PANEL, SJOGREN’S SYNDROME ANTIBODIES, COLLAGEN DISEASES PANEL, PHOSPHOLIPID SYNDROME PANEL and DEEP VEIN THROMBOSIS PANEL.
Price: 4850.00
Report: Sample Daily by 9 am; Report Same day
Usage: Arthritic disorders affect majority of the population, varying in severity. Many of these disorders are self limiting conditions requiring minimal evaluation and symptomatic therapy. However several patients show persistent musculo-skeletal symptoms that requires laboratory testing to establish diagnosis and document the pathological process. Complement mediated immune complex deposition may also result in arthritic changes.
