🔬 Test Overview & Clinical Utility
This Next‑Generation Sequencing (NGS) test analyses the entire coding region of the CIB2 gene to identify pathogenic variants responsible for autosomal recessive deafness type 48 (DFNB48). In the UAE, it provides conclusive molecular diagnosis for congenital sensorineural hearing loss, guiding audiological rehabilitation and family planning under DHA‑endorsed protocols.
| Feature | Our CIB2 NGS Test | Closest Alternative (Single‑Gene Sanger) |
|---|---|---|
| Methodology | Full‑gene Next‑Generation Sequencing | Sanger sequencing of selected exons |
| Detection Rate | >99% of known pathogenic variants | Misses deep intronic or large deletions |
| Turnaround Time | 3‑4 Weeks | 4‑6 Weeks |
| Clinical Use | Early intervention, carrier screening, genetic counseling | Suspected familial variant only |
📋 Pre‑Test Requirements
A detailed clinical history of the patient’s hearing loss (onset, severity, family history) must be provided. A genetic counselling session will draw a pedigree chart to assess inheritance patterns. No medication changes or special preparation is needed; however, do not discontinue prescribed medication without consulting your doctor.
Sample Accepted: Whole Blood (EDTA tube), Extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card.
👨⚕️ Physician Insight & Safety Protocol
“As a Senior Specialist, I understand that a diagnosis of genetic hearing loss can be overwhelming. This CIB2 NGS test offers families a clear answer, allowing early cochlear implantation or sign language planning. Remember, test results must always be interpreted alongside audiological and clinical findings. We are here to support you every step of the way.”
