    What is Dengue Profile - Rapid with CBC Test?

    A Dengue Profile (Rapid) test is a simple blood test used to detect the presence of the dengue virus and the antibodies produced in response to the virus. This test plays a vital role in diagnosing dengue fever, a viral infection that is spread through mosquito bites. The virus is mainly transmitted by the female Aedes aegypti mosquito. Dengue symptoms can vary from mild to severe, and if left undiagnosed or untreated, can lead to life-threatening complications. Therefore, prompt testing, which allows for early detection and targeted treatment, is essential to prevent dengue from progressing.

    Our Dengue Profile (Rapid) test in Bangalore helps to provide a comprehensive evaluation which is crucial for understanding the full impact of dengue and guiding effective treatment.

    Dengue Profile - Rapid with CBC Test Parameters

    The Dengue Profile (Rapid) test in Bangalore evaluates 3 key parameters to diagnose dengue. These include:

    Dengue IgM Antibody: IgM antibodies against the dengue virus typically start appearing in the blood 4 to 5 days after the onset of symptoms. These antibodies usually remain detectable for approximately 12 weeks, representing the body's early response to the infection. The presence of IgM antibodies suggests a recent/current dengue virus infection.

    NS1 Antigen: The NS1 antigen test for dengue checks for the presence of non-structural protein-1 (NS1) of the dengue virus in blood. This protein is released into the bloodstream during an active dengue infection. Thus, finding NS1 antigen in the blood indicates a current dengue infection.

    Dengue IgG Antibody: A positive IgG test result signifies a past infection or immunity to the dengue virus. This test is most accurate when conducted several weeks after the onset of symptoms. IgG antibodies can remain in the bloodstream for months or even years after infection, offering long-term protection against the dengue virus.

    Dengue Profile - Rapid with CBC Test Preparation

    Here are a few key points to consider before setting up a Dengue Profile (Rapid) test at home:

    • Prerequisites

    Fasting is not required before this test.

    • Best Time to Get Tested

    You can get tested at any time during the day.

    • Who Should Get a Dengue Profile (Rapid) Test

    You should consider getting a dengue test if you show symptoms of dengue fever, such as severe muscle pain, high fever or rash, particularly if you have recently travelled to regions where dengue is prevalent. The test is also advisable for those with a history of mosquito bites in areas known for dengue outbreaks or if you experience symptoms of severe dengue.

    • Cautions Before Taking a Dengue Profile (Rapid) Test

    Before undergoing a test, provide your doctor with precise information about your recent travel history and any symptoms you are experiencing.

    Why Take the Dengue Profile - Rapid with CBC Test?

    You may require a Dengue Profile (Rapid) Test in Bangalore if you exhibit symptoms consistent with dengue and have recently travelled to areas where dengue infection is common. Typical symptoms of dengue include:

    • Skin rashes

    • Sudden high fever (104°F or higher)

    • Headache

    • Nausea and vomiting

    • Pain behind the eyes

    Severe dengue can develop after the initial fever subsides and may present with:

    • Blood in the stool or vomit

    • Abdominal pain or tenderness

    • Fatigue, restlessness, or irritability

    • Bleeding from the nose or gums

    • Joint, bone, or muscle pain

    • Persistent vomiting

    Testing is necessary to avoid complications and ensure timely treatment. Early diagnosis of dengue helps manage the disease effectively, prevents progression to severe dengue, and reduces the risk of serious health issues. By identifying the infection early, you can receive appropriate medical care, which is crucial for a better outcome and quicker recovery.

    Dengue Profile - Rapid with CBC Test Results and Interpretation

    The results of the Dengue Profile (Rapid) test in Bangalore are presented as negative or positive. Negative results may indicate no antibodies or antigens can be detected. However, in the early stages of the infection or sometimes in secondary infections, antibody levels are low and are not always detectable. Therefore, a negative result on the test does not rule out the possibility of dengue infection. If the initial test result is negative but symptoms continue, a second blood sample should be tested after 3-4 days.

    Your doctor will correlate the results of this screening test with clinical findings and advise Dengue ELISA/ELFA for confirmation.
