The HBV DNA Viral Load Test measures the amount of Hepatitis B virus DNA in the blood, indicating the level of viral replication and infection severity.

The test is used to confirm active Hepatitis B infection, assess disease severity, monitor treatment response, and guide treatment decisions.

No special preparation is needed. You can eat and drink normally. Inform your healthcare provider about any medications or recent health issues.

ICU equipment includes ventilators, monitors, infusion pumps, dialysis machines, and other devices to support and monitor vital functions.

Patients in the ICU are continuously monitored using advanced technology to track vital signs such as heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen levels, and respiratory rate.
