Overview

The SFTPD NGS test sequences the entire coding region of the surfactant protein D gene to identify pathogenic variants linked to surfactant metabolism dysfunction—a rare, often neonatal-onset interstitial lung disease. This 3‑4 week assay, compliant with 2026 DHA guidelines, delivers a definitive molecular diagnosis that guides targeted respiratory management, family planning, and eligibility for emerging therapies.

يكشف تحليل جين SFTPD المتطور الطفرات المسببة لاعتلال وظائف الفاعل بالسطح الرئوي، مما يتيح تشخيصاً دقيقاً وخطط علاجية مخصصة لحديثي الولادة والأطفال.

Physician Insight & Safety Protocol

“As a clinician, I recognise the anxiety that accompanies genetic testing for a child’s respiratory condition. This SFTPD analysis provides clarity, but a normal result does not exclude other surfactant gene defects; clinical correlation with radiology and lung biopsy remains essential. We are here to guide you through every result, ensuring you feel supported and empowered.”
– Dr. PRABHAKAR REDDY (DHA License: 61713011), Senior Medical Geneticist

⚠️ Medication Warning

Do not discontinue prescribed medication (e.g., corticosteroids, bronchodilators, diuretics) without consulting your doctor. This test is for diagnostic purposes only and does not replace ongoing clinical management.

Patient Safety – Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Signs

  • Active febrile illness (temp ≥38.5°C) or untreated infection – postpone phlebotomy.
  • Severe bleeding diathesis or platelet count <50,000/µL – require medical clearance before blood draw.
  • Current use of anticoagulants that cannot be safely held; discuss with the ordering physician.
  • Seek immediate emergency care (call 998) if the affected infant exhibits: grunting, chest retractions, cyanosis, or oxygen saturation <90% while on home oxygen.
  • In case of sudden deterioration after sample collection, contact your managing pulmonologist or visit the nearest emergency department.

Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance

1. What is the SFTPD gene test and how does it impact my child’s treatment plan?

Snippet answer: The SFTPD identifies pathogenic mutations that cause surfactant protein D deficiency, enabling neonate-tailored ventilator strategies and possible enrolment in precision medicine trials.

يكشف اختبار SFTPD عن الطفرات المسببة لنقص البروتين الفاعل بالسطح، مما يوجه استراتيجيات التنفس الصناعي المناسبة لحديثي الولادة وقد يؤهل للمشاركة في تجارب العلاج الجيني الدقيق.

2. How long do results take and will a genetic counsellor explain them?

Snippet answer: Report delivery occurs in 21–28 calendar days; a complimentary 20‑minute Arabic/English genetic counselling session is booked immediately upon result notification.

تصدر النتائج خلال 21 إلى 28 يوماً، ويتم حجز جلسة استشارة وراثية مجانية بالعربية أو الإنجليزية فور صدور التقرير.

3. Is home sample collection safe and accepted by UAE insurance?

Snippet answer: Our ISO‑certified phlebotomists follow strict cold‑chain protocols; we verify direct billing eligibility with major insurers via WhatsApp before the visit.
