    What is Dengue Profile - Rapid with CBC Test?

    The Dengue Profile (Rapid) test is a fast and efficient blood test that helps detect both the dengue virus and the immune response generated by the body. This test is instrumental in diagnosing dengue fever, a viral infection spread by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. Dengue symptoms can range from mild discomfort to severe illness, and if not properly diagnosed, it can lead to dangerous complications.

    Early detection through testing is crucial to initiating appropriate treatment and stopping the disease from advancing. In Mumbai, our Dengue Profile (Rapid) test offers a detailed evaluation that helps manage the infection effectively and guides targeted treatment options.

    Dengue Profile - Rapid with CBC Test Parameters

    In diagnosing dengue, the Dengue Profile (Rapid) test in Mumbai analyses three key markers:

    NS1 Antigen

    This test detects the non-structural protein-1 (NS1), a viral protein present during active dengue infection, confirming that the infection is ongoing.

    Dengue IgM Antibody

    IgM antibodies are the body’s first line of defence, appearing in the blood around 4 to 5 days after symptoms start and lasting for about 12 weeks. Their presence is important for determining whether your body is currently affected by the virus.

    Dengue IgG Antibody

    A positive IgG test suggests a previous infection or immunity. These antibodies appear weeks after infection and can stay in the blood for months or years, offering long-term protection.

    Here are important things to know before arranging a Dengue Profile (Rapid) test at home:

    • Prerequisites

    You can take this test without fasting beforehand.

    • Best Time to Get Tested

    Dengue Profile (Rapid) test at home can be done at any time during the day.

    • Who Should Get a Dengue Profile (Rapid) Test

    If you have signs of dengue fever like a high fever, body aches, or a rash, especially after travelling to areas where dengue is common, you should consider testing. People who have been exposed to mosquitoes in dengue-endemic areas or who show severe symptoms should also get tested.

    • Cautions Before Taking a Dengue Profile (Rapid) Test

    Inform your healthcare provider about your recent travel history to dengue-endemic regions and any symptoms related to dengue that you may have before taking the test.

    Why Take the Dengue Profile - Rapid with CBC Test?

    You should consider a Dengue Profile (Rapid) Test in Mumbai if you’ve recently visited dengue-prone regions and show symptoms like:

    • Nausea and vomiting

    • Sudden high fever (104°F or higher)

    • Headache

    • Pain behind the eyes

    • Skin rashes

    If left unchecked, severe dengue can develop after the fever fades, and symptoms may include:

    • Persistent vomiting

    • Joint, bone, or muscle pain

    • Fatigue, restlessness, or irritability

    • Blood in stool or vomit

    • Abdominal pain or tenderness

    • Bleeding from the nose or gums

    Early testing is essential to ensure prompt treatment and prevent complications. Timely diagnosis allows for proper management of the disease, reducing the likelihood of severe dengue and improving recovery outcomes.

    Dengue Profile - Rapid with CBC Test Results and Interpretation

    The Dengue Profile (Rapid) test in Mumbai provides results as either positive or negative. A negative result indicates that no antigens or antibodies were detected in the blood. However, in the early stages of the infection or cases of secondary infections, antibody levels may be too low to be picked up by the test, so a negative result does not eliminate the possibility of dengue. If symptoms persist, a follow-up test after 3-4 days may be necessary.

    Your doctor will assess these results in conjunction with clinical symptoms and might suggest Dengue ELISA/ELFA for confirmation.
