Infectious diseases are disorders caused by organisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, or parasites.

They can be transmitted through direct contact with an infected person, animal, insect bites, or contaminated food and water.

Symptoms vary but often include fever, fatigue, muscle aches, cough, and digestive issues.

Diagnosis involves physical examinations, medical history review, and diagnostic tests such as blood tests, cultures, and imaging.

Treatments may include antibiotics, antivirals, antifungals, antiparasitics, and supportive care depending on the type of infection.

The HBSAg Card test is highly accurate in detecting Hepatitis B surface antigen in the blood.

Yes, patient confidentiality is strictly maintained during HBSAg testing, and results are handled discreetly by trained healthcare professionals.

No, additional tests may be required to differentiate between acute (recently acquired) and chronic (long-term) Hepatitis B infection.

The test can detect Hepatitis B surface antigen early in the course of infection, typically within a few weeks after exposure.

A positive result requires further confirmation with additional tests. Counseling and appropriate medical care will be provided to manage Hepatitis B infection effectively.

The Anti-Phospholipid Antibody Test detects antibodies against phospholipids, helping diagnose antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) and assess the risk of blood clots.

A blood sample is collected from a vein in your arm and analyzed for the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies.

No fasting or special preparation is required. You can eat and drink normally before the test.

Results are usually available within 1-2 days, depending on the laboratory’s processing time.

Discuss any abnormal results with your healthcare provider, who will guide you on further tests or treatment options based on your specific condition.
