HHV 7 Viral Load Quantitative Test – Cost, Symptoms, Diagnosis
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the HHV 7 Viral Load Quantitative Test at a cost of AED 1630.0. This test helps in diagnosing and monitoring the HHV-7 infection in individuals with weakened immune systems.
Test Details
HHV-7, also known as human herpesvirus 7, is a type of herpesvirus that primarily infects humans. It is transmitted through saliva and can cause a childhood rash illness called roseola. In some cases, it may also lead to symptoms such as fever, fatigue, and sore throat.
The HHV 7 Viral Load Quantitative Test is a laboratory test that measures the amount of HHV-7 viral DNA in a person’s blood. This test is conducted using a technique called Real Time PCR, which amplifies the viral DNA in the sample for accurate measurement of the viral load.
The test is typically recommended for individuals with weakened immune systems, such as those with HIV/AIDS or undergoing organ transplantation. It helps healthcare providers assess the severity of the infection and monitor the effectiveness of treatment, if applicable. It can also determine if a person is at risk of transmitting the virus to others.
Sample Collection
The HHV 7 Viral Load Quantitative Test requires a blood sample. The sample is collected by a physician in our Genetics department. Other sample conditions include saliva, skin biopsy, tissue, and plasma.
Report Delivery
Once the sample is collected, the report will be delivered within the 3rd working day via email (36 hours) and can also be obtained over the phone (24 hours).
Pre Test Information
Prior to the test, the patient is required to sign a Consent document. It is also recommended to bring any clinical history related to HHV 7 Viral Load Quantitative Test.
It is important to note that HHV-7 is a relatively common virus and most people are infected with it at some point in their lives. However, it usually causes mild or no symptoms in healthy individuals. The viral load quantitative test is typically only performed in specific clinical situations where monitoring of the virus is necessary.
