Legionella IgM Test in Kadi

x

 

Sterling Accuris diagnostics offers a Legionella IgM Test in Kadi  to detect probable legionellosis like Legionnaires' disease, extrapulmonary legionella infection, and Pontiac fever, induced by Legionella pneumophila. 

Overview of Legionella IgM Test

Legionnaires' disease is a severe form of pneumonia that can be carried on by a particular type of bacteria called legionella. Pontiac fever, a less severe sickness that resembles the flu, can also be caused by legionella bacteria. Legionellosis is the collective name for Pontiac fever and Legionnaires' disease. 

Environments with freshwater naturally contain Legionella bacteria. Yet, when the bacteria multiply and spread in artificial water systems, such as those in hospitals, hotels, nursing homes, and cruise ships, the bacteria might infect water sources like air conditioners, hot tubs, and fountains and cause illness in humans.

Those who breathe in a mist or tiny drops of water containing the bacteria suffer legionellosis illnesses. There is no person-to-person transmission of the microorganisms. A disease epidemic, however, can occur if a large number of people are exposed to the same polluted water supply.

 If you meet the following criteria, you are more likely to acquire an infection: 

  • Age Over 50 
  • Smoker 
  • Diabetes or kidney failure
  • Have a chronic illness like HIV/AIDS or cancer or are using immune-suppressing medications.
