Test Parameters & Specifications
Sample Stability
- Hemolyzed or clotted samples
- Insufficient sample volume
- Improper labeling or contamination
Understanding Your Results
If you experience symptoms such as fatigue, jaundice, or neuropathy, or if you have a family history of hemolytic anemia, consult a hematologist or geneticist for evaluation and possible genetic testing.
Limitations
- ⚠May not detect all types of genetic variants
- ⚠Requires interpretation by a qualified geneticist
- ⚠Results may have implications for family members and require genetic counseling
Risks & Considerations
- ●Minimal risk from blood draw (e.g., bruising, infection)
- ●Potential psychological impact of genetic diagnosis
- ●Risk of incidental findings
Interfering Factors
- ●Poor sample quality
- ●Contamination during DNA extraction
- ●Hemolyzed blood samples
