| Methodology | Next‑Generation Sequencing (Illumina® platform) with Sanger confirmation | Sanger sequencing of selected exons only |
| Turnaround Time | 3–4 weeks from sample receipt | 4–6 weeks (often outsourced) |
| DHA/MOHAP Accreditation | ISO 9001:2015 certified facility; DHA‑licensed lab | Variable; may lack local regulatory oversight |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
“I understand that waiting for a genetic result can be emotionally challenging. This test is a critical step toward clarifying the diagnosis of a potentially life‑limiting condition. Please remember that all results must be interpreted alongside your clinical picture and family history by a qualified specialist.” — Lina Osama Zaki Quteineh, Consultant Medical Genetics, DHA Registration ID: 9294403
Medication Advisory
Do not discontinue any prescribed cardiac or neurological medication without consulting your treating physician.
Safety Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Red Flags
- Home blood collection is not performed on individuals with active severe thrombocytopenia or uncorrected coagulopathy (INR > 2.0).
- Seek immediate emergency care if you experience sudden chest pain, fainting (syncope), palpitations, or severe shortness of breath — these may signal dangerous cardiac arrhythmias.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What does the TTN gene test detect?
This test identifies TTN gene mutations linked to early-onset myopathy and fatal cardiomyopathy. The assay screens the entire titin gene for single‑nucleotide variants, insertions/deletions, and copy‑number changes that disrupt muscle and heart function.
2. How long will it take to receive the results?
Results are delivered within 3–4 weeks from the date the laboratory receives your sample. We provide a secure online report and a telephonic consultation to explain the findings.
3. Is genetic counseling included with the test?
Yes, a pre‑test genetic counselling session to draw a detailed pedigree is mandatory and included. This session ensures that the family history is properly documented and that you understand the implications of the result before testing.
