    What is Indirect Coombs Test (ICT) Test?

    The Coombs test serves to detect antibodies that might target red blood cells. Antibodies typically play a crucial role in the immune system, defending against bacteria, viruses, and toxins. However, there are times when antibodies can mistakenly attack healthy cells. The Indirect Coombs Test (ICT), also known as the "antibody screen," is a test that specifically identifies antibodies in the blood that may bind to red blood cells. This screening tool is especially valuable for evaluating potential reactions to blood transfusions and is commonly part of routine prenatal testing. It can identify several minor antibodies that could cause issues for either the mother or baby during transfusions. While not all antibodies found are of concern, identifying the specific antibody can provide vital information.

    In Mumbai, our Indirect Coombs test provides a reliable way to detect antibodies that may influence transfusion safety. Expecting mothers can use this test to take proactive steps for a healthy pregnancy and delivery.

    Indirect Coombs Test (ICT) Test Parameters

    The Indirect Coombs test identifies antibodies within the bloodstream that could target red blood cells, particularly when the mother has Rh-negative blood and the baby is Rh-positive. Individuals with Rh-negative blood (for example, AB-, O-, A-, B-) lack the Rh factor in their red blood cells, while those with Rh-positive blood possess this specific marker. When an Rh-negative mother is carrying an Rh-positive baby, her immune system might wrongly generate antibodies against the Rh factor. This generally doesn’t impact the first pregnancy, as it takes time for the antibodies to form. However, during future pregnancies with an Rh-positive baby, these antibodies may attack the baby’s red blood cells, causing Rh disease (the breakdown of the baby’s red blood cells), leading to anaemia, jaundice, and other health issues. These complications tend to become more severe with each subsequent Rh-positive pregnancy, highlighting the importance of the ICT test for monitoring and managing these risks.

    Indirect Coombs Test (ICT) Test Preparation

    Here’s what you need to know before undergoing the Indirect Coombs test:

    • Prerequisites: There is no need to fast before taking the Indirect Coombs test.

    • Best Time to Get Tested: You can schedule this test at any time throughout the day.

    • Who Should Get an Indirect Coombs Test: It is typically recommended for pregnant individuals, especially in the early stages of pregnancy, to identify antibodies that could potentially affect the baby’s well-being or cause pregnancy-related complications .

    • Cautions Before Taking an Indirect Coombs Test: No special precautions are required before taking the Indirect Coombs test.
