No special preparation, such as fasting, is required for the PTT Test. However, inform your doctor about any medications you are taking.

A blood sample is taken from a vein in your arm and analyzed in a laboratory to measure the clotting time.

PTT Test results are usually available within a few hours to 24 hours, depending on the laboratory’s workload.

3. DENGUE IGG

A positive result indicates past infection with the Dengue virus or successful vaccination against Dengue.

No, additional tests, such as Dengue IgM or PCR, may be required to differentiate recent infections from past ones.

No, the Dengue IgG test is not suitable for diagnosing acute Dengue infection. IgG antibodies appear later in the course of infection.

Dengue IgG antibodies can remain detectable in the bloodstream for months to years after infection or vaccination.

A negative result suggests no detectable Dengue IgG antibodies. If symptoms persist or there is a recent exposure, consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation.
