CertifiedLabsWhat is a TORCH-5 IgG Test?
The TORCH 5 IgG test detects antibodies to five key infections that can be transmitted from mother to baby during pregnancy: Toxoplasmosis, Rubella, Cytomegalovirus (CMV), Herpes Simplex Virus types 1 and 2 (HSV-1, HSV-2), and other infections like syphilis, varicella-zoster, parvovirus B19, and hepatitis B. These infections are grouped under the acronym TORCH because of their potential to cause serious complications for the unborn baby, including birth defects, developmental delays, and in severe cases, stillbirth. Infections with TORCH pathogens can be passed to the baby during pregnancy, delivery, or after birth, and they are particularly dangerous in the early stages of pregnancy, as they can disrupt organ development. The TORCH 5 IgG test measures the presence of IgG antibodies, indicating whether a person has been previously exposed to these infections, and thus provides information about potential immunity or past infection. Early detection is critical in preventing severe outcomes like hearing loss, jaundice, and developmental issues in the child. If you live in Bangalore you can schedule the TORCH 5 IgG test in Bangalore without needing a laboratory visit.
