Early Infantile Epileptic Encephalopathy Gene Panel Test
Cost: AED 7200.0
Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Test Details
Early Infantile Epileptic Encephalopathy (EIEE) is a severe form of epilepsy that usually manifests within the first few months of life. To diagnose and inform treatment decisions for EIEE, DNA Labs UAE offers the Early Infantile Epileptic Encephalopathy Gene Panel Test. This genetic test analyzes a group of genes, including SCN1A, STXBP1, CDKL5, and others, which have been identified as causing or contributing to EIEE.
The test is typically performed on a blood or saliva sample. The cost of the Early Infantile Epileptic Encephalopathy Gene Panel Test is AED 7200.0.
Components and Sample Condition
The Early Infantile Epileptic Encephalopathy Gene Panel Test requires the following components:
- Sterile container
- Sterile Normal Saline Container
- EDTA Vacutainer
The sample condition can be either amniotic fluid, chorionic villi, or peripheral blood.
Report Delivery and Test Method
The report for the Early Infantile Epileptic Encephalopathy Gene Panel Test is typically delivered within 4-6 weeks. The test is performed using Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, a highly accurate and efficient method for analyzing genetic information.
Test Type and Doctor
The Early Infantile Epileptic Encephalopathy Gene Panel Test falls under the category of genetics. It is recommended to consult a General Physician for this test.
Pre Test Information
The Early Infantile Epileptic Encephalopathy Gene Panel Test requires a doctor’s prescription. However, the prescription is not applicable for surgery and pregnancy cases or individuals planning to travel abroad.
Conclusion
The Early Infantile Epileptic Encephalopathy Gene Panel Test offered by DNA Labs UAE is a valuable tool for diagnosing EIEE and guiding treatment decisions. It provides important information about the risk of passing the condition on to future generations. If you suspect EIEE in an infant, consult a General Physician and consider the Early Infantile Epileptic Encephalopathy Gene Panel Test for accurate diagnosis and personalized care.
