Name: Malaria indirect immunofluorescence test

category: Pathogen

Normal value of malaria indirect immunofluorescence test

Negative <1:20.

Clinical significance of indirect immunofluorescence test for malaria

Abnormal results: The positive detection rate of fluorescent antibody method is generally higher than that of protozoa. The antibody titer to patients with falciparum malaria is 1:80 or higher, which can be considered as a sign of carrier or recent infection with malaria. People to be checked: People with obvious chills, shivering, pale faces, cyanosis of lips, dry and hot skin, restlessness, fatigue, headache, discomfort, anorexia and other symptoms.

Precautions for malaria indirect immunofluorescence test

Before the inspection: (1) Do not eat too greasy, high-protein food the day before blood drawing, and avoid drinking a lot. The alcohol content in the blood directly affects the test results. (2) After 8 pm the day before the physical examination, fasting should be started for 12 hours to avoid affecting the test results. (3) When you draw blood, you should relax and avoid the constriction of blood vessels caused by fear and increase the difficulty of blood collection. After the examination: (1) After the blood is drawn, it is necessary to perform local pressure on the pinhole for 3-5 minutes to stop bleeding. Note: Do not rub, as it may cause subcutaneous hematoma. (2) The pressing time should be sufficient. The coagulation time varies from person to person, and some people take a little longer to coagulate. Therefore, when the surface layer of the skin does not seem to bleed, the compression will be stopped immediately, which may cause the blood to penetrate the skin and cause bruising due to incomplete hemostasis. Therefore, pressing for a long time can completely stop bleeding. If there is bleeding tendency, the compression time should be extended. (3) Symptoms of dizzy needles such as dizziness, dizziness, fatigue, etc. after blood drawing should lie flat and drink a small amount of sugar and water, and then perform a physical examination after the symptoms are relieved. (4) If congestion occurs locally, a wet towel with a warm towel after 24 hours can promote absorption.
