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.

A Holter monitor is a portable device used to continuously record the electrical activity of the heart over 24 to 48 hours, capturing data during daily activities.

A Holter monitor helps detect and diagnose irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmias) that may not be captured during a standard ECG.

The monitor is attached to the patient with electrodes placed on the chest. It records heartbeats continuously while the patient carries out normal activities.

Patients experiencing symptoms such as palpitations, dizziness, fainting, or irregular heartbeats may require Holter monitoring to assess their heart’s electrical activity over an extended period.

Holter monitoring typically lasts 24 to 48 hours, depending on the doctor’s recommendation and the specific monitoring objectives.

The ANA Blot Test detects and identifies specific antinuclear antibodies (ANAs) in the blood, helping diagnose autoimmune diseases.

It is used to diagnose or rule out autoimmune disorders, assess disease progression, and investigate unexplained symptoms.

No fasting is required. Inform your healthcare provider about any medications or supplements you are taking.

Results are typically available within 2 to 7 days after the test.

The test can help diagnose autoimmune diseases such as lupus, scleroderma, and Sjögren’s syndrome, among others.
