    What is Cardiolipin antibody IgM Test?

    The Cardiolipin Antibody IgM test detects specific antibodies in the blood that target cardiolipin, a type of fat important for blood clotting. Antibodies are substances produced by the immune system to fight infections, but in this case, they mistakenly attack cardiolipin. This can lead to blood clot formation and depletion of platelets, the blood cells responsible for clotting, which may result in bleeding issues. People with autoimmune illnesses such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), abnormal blood coagulation, or recurrent miscarriages frequently have high levels of these antibodies.

    If you're in Bangalore and experiencing issues with abnormal blood clotting, consider booking a Cardiolipin Antibody IgM test today to help diagnose potential underlying causes.

    Cardiolipin antibody IgM Test Parameters

    The Cardiolipin Antibody IgM test focuses on a single parameter: Levels of cardiolipin IgM antibodies in blood.

    The immune system produces cardiolipin antibodies, a subset of antiphospholipid antibodies, in reaction to perceived dangers. These antibodies can disrupt blood clotting and increase the risk of abnormal blood clots (thrombi) in both arteries and veins. Thus, a Cardiolipin Antibody IgM test helps in diagnosing conditions related to abnormal blood clotting, such as thrombosis, recurrent miscarriages, pre-eclampsia, and thrombocytopenia (low platelet count), especially in individuals with autoimmune disorders like SLE. It can also help identify patients at risk of developing clotting issues due to infections, certain medications, or other underlying conditions.

    • Who Should Get a Cardiolipin Antibody IgM Test?

    • Cautions Before Taking Cardiolipin Antibody IgM Test

    No special preparation is usually needed. However, if you are taking any prescription medications or supplements, inform your doctor beforehand.

    Why Take the Cardiolipin antibody IgM Test?

    Your doctor may request a Cardiolipin Antibody IgM test for the following reasons:

    Abnormal Blood Clotting or Bleeding : If you experience symptoms of a thrombotic episode, such as:

    • Pain and swelling in the extremities

    • Shortness of breath

    • Headaches

    Recurrent Miscarriages : If you have had multiple miscarriages, this test may help identify underlying causes.

    Autoimmune Diseases : If you have conditions like SLE, this test can detect cardiolipin antibodies commonly found in individuals with such conditions.

    Diagnosing Cardiolipin Antibody Syndrome : If high levels of cardiolipin antibodies are detected, the test can help diagnose this condition, which increases the risk of blood clots.

    Follow-up testing may be necessary to determine whether the detected antibodies are temporary or persistent. In patients with autoimmune disorders, additional testing might be recommended to screen for future development of these antibodies.
