VIRAL MARKER (HIV, HBSAG, HCV)

Overview

This comprehensive panel screens for three distinct viruses that share similar modes of transmission (blood, sexual contact, and from mother to child).

  1. HIV 1 & 2: Detects antibodies and/or the p24 antigen for the Human Immunodeficiency Virus.
  2. HBsAg (Hepatitis B Surface Antigen): The primary marker for detecting an active Hepatitis B infection.
  3. HCV (Hepatitis C Antibody): Detects exposure to the Hepatitis C virus.

Why Book This Panel?

  • Pre-Operative Clearance: Almost all hospitals require this panel before surgery to protect both the patient and surgical staff.
  • Prenatal Screening: Essential for pregnant women to prevent mother-to-child transmission.
  • Post-Exposure Check: If you have had an accidental needle stick, unprotected sexual contact, or shared personal grooming items.
  • Routine Health Check: Highly recommended for high-risk individuals or as part of an annual executive check-up.
