Test Overview & Methodology
The CRHR1 Gene NGS Test detects pathogenic variants associated with persistent pulmonary hypertension in newborns (PPHN) using high-throughput sequencing. This comprehensive analysis identifies point mutations, indels, and copy number variations with exceptional accuracy.
| Feature | Our Test (NGS) | Closest Alternative (Single-Gene Sequencing) |
|---|---|---|
| Precision | 99.9% sensitivity; detects all mutation types (point, indel, CNV) in CRHR1 | Limited to targeted amplicon; may miss large rearrangements |
| Methodology | Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) with bioinformatic pathogenicity scoring | Sanger sequencing of selected exons only |
| Turnaround Time | 3-4 Weeks | 6-8 Weeks |
Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
"As a Consultant Medical Genetics specializing in pediatric disorders, I confirm that the CRHR1 NGS test provides a definitive molecular diagnosis for persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn. However, a positive result must be contextualized with echocardiographic findings and clinical assessment. Pre- and post-test genetic counselling is mandatory to ensure informed decision-making and family planning evaluation."
— Lina Osama Zaki Quteineh, Consultant Medical Genetics (DHA ID: 9294403)
Advisory & Precautions
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Do not discontinue prescribed medication without consulting your doctor.
Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Red Flags
- Genetic testing of minors without legal guardian consent.
- Absence of pre-test genetic counselling and signed informed consent.
- Active systemic infection or contraindication for blood draw (assessed by attending physician).
- Emergency Red Flags: If the newborn experiences severe cyanosis, respiratory distress, or shock, do not delay — seek emergency care immediately.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What is the CRHR1 gene test for newborn pulmonary hypertension?
The CRHR1 gene test uses next-generation sequencing to detect mutations causing persistent newborn pulmonary hypertension. This test screens for rare autosomal recessive and de novo mutations, enabling early diagnosis and targeted management. All results are interpreted by a multidisciplinary team including pediatricians, cardiologists, and medical geneticists.
2. How long does it take to get results, and what sample is required?
Results are typically available within 3 to 4 weeks. We accept whole blood, extracted DNA, or one drop of blood on an FTA card. A simple collection can be performed via our VIP mobile phlebotomy service or at your nearest clinic.
3. Is home collection available in the UAE, and how do I book?
Yes, we provide ISO-compliant home blood collection by trained phlebotomists across all UAE emirates daily from 8 AM to 11 PM. Simply contact our support team on WhatsApp at +971 54 548 8731 to schedule a convenient appointment with full cold-chain handling.
