Does HIT II develop in all individuals with HIT antibodies?

No, most individuals who manufacture HIT antibodies won't develop HIT II (i.e., significant thrombocytopenia and thrombosis). 

How does HIT employ PF4?

Antibodies that identify complexes of platelet factor 4 (PF4) and heparin cause heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT), a prothrombotic disease. While treating thrombocytopenia in heparin-treated individuals, HIT is commonly considered in the differential diagnosis.

Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (PF4) Test (HIT testing) in Mahuva

x

 

Sterling Accuris diagnostics offers a Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (PF4) Test (HIT testing) in Mahuva  to detect antibodies against the anticoagulant heparin. 

Overview of Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (PF4) Test 

A symptom of using the blood-thinning (anticoagulant) drug heparin that might result in reduced platelet counts and an elevated risk of excessive blood clotting is known as "heparin-induced thrombocytopenia." This test looks for and evaluates antibodies that your immune system may develop during or after heparin treatment. 

Heparin is a common anticoagulant that is administered intravenously or through injections to stop unneeded blood clots from forming (thrombosis) or as the first course of treatment for existing blood clots to stop them from expanding. When you receive heparin, the drug occasionally forms a complex with platelet factor 4 (PF4), a component of platelets. In some individuals, the heparin-PF4 combination is recognized by the body's immune system as foreign, and the body produces antibodies against it. This antibody can stimulate your platelets and cause a decrease in their number, thereby causing heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT). Also, it could result in the emergence of a fresh thrombosis or the deterioration of an existing thrombosis, which is a side effect of heparin use that might be fatal.

Get a HIT Test near you to rule out any further complications that may lead to serious ailments. For accurate and precise test results head on to Sterling Accuris diagnostics for the HIT Test in   Mahuva.

Why and when is the Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (PF4) Test done?

The doctor may recommend this test to find antibodies that some heparin-treated patients acquire, a test is performed for heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT), also known as the heparin-PF4 antibody. When you have an elevated rate of clotting and a low platelet count (thrombocytopenia), it is used to aid in the diagnosis of immune-mediated heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT type II) (thrombosis).

Testing is often only requested when there is clinical suspicion of HIT II because the production of HIT antibodies does not necessarily result in HIT II. Your likelihood of getting HIT II is often calculated using a pre-test scoring method.

Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (PF4) Test: Main Highlights

  • Instructions: Fasting is preferred but not compulsory.
  • Recommended Age: Any age group.
  • Sample type for test: Citrated plasma.

Understanding how to interpret Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (PF4) Test Reports 

If IgG antibodies against PF4/Polyanion complex are detected the test is positive and if IgG antibodies against PF4/Polyanion complex are not detected the test is negative.
