PRKAG2 Gene Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome Genetic Test
Introduction
At DNA Labs UAE, we offer the PRKAG2 Gene Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) Syndrome Genetic Test, a comprehensive genetic testing service for individuals suspected of having WPW syndrome. This test helps in identifying mutations or variations in the PRKAG2 gene that may be responsible for the development of the condition.
Test Details
The PRKAG2 gene is associated with WPW syndrome, a rare genetic disorder characterized by abnormal electrical pathways in the heart. This can lead to rapid heart rates and potential heart rhythm disturbances. Our PRKAG2 Gene Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome Genetic Test utilizes Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to analyze multiple genes simultaneously.
Test Components and Price
The cost of the PRKAG2 Gene Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome Genetic Test is AED 4400.0. The test can be conducted using blood or extracted DNA, or even one drop of blood on an FTA card.
Report Delivery
Once the sample is received, the report will be delivered within 3 to 4 weeks.
Test Method
The PRKAG2 Gene Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome Genetic Test utilizes NGS technology for accurate and efficient analysis.
Test Type
This test falls under the category of Cardiovascular Pneumology Disorders.
Referring Doctor
A cardiologist will oversee the PRKAG2 Gene Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome Genetic Test.
Test Department
The PRKAG2 Gene Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome Genetic Test is conducted in our Genetics department.
Pre Test Information
Before undergoing the PRKAG2 Gene Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome Genetic Test, it is essential to provide the clinical history of the patient. Additionally, a genetic counseling session will be conducted to draw a pedigree chart of family members affected by the syndrome.
Conclusion
While the PRKAG2 Gene Wolff-Parkinson-White Syndrome Genetic Test can help in confirming a diagnosis of WPW syndrome by identifying genetic variants associated with the PRKAG2 gene, it may not be necessary or sufficient for diagnosing all cases. A comprehensive evaluation by a healthcare professional, including a thorough medical history, physical examination, and potentially other diagnostic tests, is usually required for an accurate diagnosis.

Test Details |
The PRKAG2 gene is associated with a rare genetic disorder called Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome. WPW syndrome is a heart condition characterized by abnormal electrical pathways in the heart, leading to rapid heart rates and potential heart rhythm disturbances. NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) genetic testing is a type of genetic testing that uses advanced technology to analyze multiple genes simultaneously. In the case of WPW syndrome, NGS can be used to identify mutations or variations in the PRKAG2 gene that may be responsible for the development of the condition. By identifying these genetic variants, NGS testing can help in confirming a diagnosis of WPW syndrome, as well as providing information about the specific genetic cause of the disorder. This information can be valuable for understanding the underlying mechanisms of the condition and guiding appropriate treatment strategies. It is important to note that WPW syndrome can have both genetic and non-genetic causes. Therefore, while NGS testing can be helpful in identifying genetic variants associated with the PRKAG2 gene, it may not be necessary or sufficient for diagnosing all cases of WPW syndrome. A comprehensive evaluation by a healthcare professional, including a thorough medical history, physical examination, and potentially other diagnostic tests, is usually required for an accurate diagnosis. |
