Antiphospholipid antibodies (APA) IgG
The test detects IgG antibodies to phospholipids — autoantibodies that can disrupt blood clotting and increase thrombosis risk. Used for antiphospholipid syndrome diagnosis and with recurrent miscarriages and suspected autoimmune diseases.
Biomaterial: Venous blood
- Draw blood fasting 8-12 hours;
- exclude fatty food and alcohol 24 hours before;
- avoid stress and physical activity 30 minutes before.
Inform physician of anticoagulant or coagulation-affecting drug intake.
- Recurrent venous or arterial thromboses;
- frequent spontaneous miscarriages;
- suspected antiphospholipid syndrome;
- autoimmune diseases (SLE);
- blood clotting disorders.
Negative — IgG antibodies to phospholipids not detected.
Positive — IgG antibodies detected; indicates elevated thrombosis risk; physician consultation required.
Note: Positive result is not a diagnosis. Assessment considering clinical picture and other data.
