Test Overview & Methodology
The SPINT2 gene sequencing test analyzes the entire coding region of the SPINT2 gene, identifying pathogenic variants that cause congenital sodium diarrhea, syndromic type 3—a rare autosomal recessive disorder marked by severe watery diarrhea, metabolic alkalosis, and extra‑intestinal anomalies. This analysis is essential for precise molecular diagnosis, carrier screening, and guided family planning.

Physician Insight & Safety Protocols
“As a Consultant Medical Genetics, I emphasize that a positive SPINT2 result requires thorough clinical correlation with your child’s symptoms and family history. This test provides a molecular confirmation that can guide tailored management and prevent complications. Parents should not alter any prescribed treatments without consulting their pediatrician. All procedures comply with Federal Decree-Law No. 4 of 2016 on Medical Liability.” – Lina Osama Zaki Quteineh | Consultant Medical Genetics | DHA Registration ID: 9294403
Medication Warning & Safety Advisory
⚠️ Do not discontinue prescribed medication without consulting your doctor. This genetic test does not replace acute diagnostic work‑up. If the child develops severe dehydration, lethargy, or extreme electrolyte imbalance, seek immediate emergency care.
Exclusion Criteria & Emergency Red Flags
- Patients with active, untreated infection (e.g., septicemia) may require clinician clearance before venipuncture.
- Hemodynamic instability or inability to provide a venous blood sample; FTA card collection is an alternative for neonates and remote areas.
- Testing of minors requires parental/guardian consent in accordance with UAE regulations.
- All personal health data is protected under Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 on Personal Data Protection (PDPL) and Federal Law No. 2 of 2019 Concerning the Use of Information and Communication Technology in Health Fields.
Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance
1. What is the purpose of the SPINT2 gene sequencing test?
This test identifies disease-causing mutations in the SPINT2 gene to confirm congenital sodium diarrhea, syndromic type 3, and guide management.
2. How is the sample collected and how long do results take?
A blood sample, extracted DNA, or a single drop on an FTA card is collected via VIP mobile phlebotomy or temperature-controlled home collection service, with results in 3–4 weeks.
3. Is genetic counseling included?
Yes, pre‑test pedigree analysis and post‑test telephonic clinical guidance are provided by our DHA‑licensed genetics team.
4. What is the price and turnaround time?
The test costs 2,800 AED with results available within 3–4 weeks from sample receipt.
