Test Parameters & Specifications
Sample Stability
- Hemolyzed or clotted blood sample
- Insufficient sample volume
- Improper labeling or documentation
- Contaminated sample
Understanding Your Results
Positive (Pathogenic variant detected)
Increased risk for preeclampsia/eclampsia. Consult healthcare provider for enhanced monitoring and management.
Negative (No pathogenic variant detected)
Lower genetic risk based on CORIN gene. Continue standard prenatal care and monitor for symptoms.
Variant of uncertain significance (VUS)
Genetic variant found but clinical significance unknown. Further testing or family studies may be recommended.
Consult your obstetrician or genetic counselor immediately if you experience symptoms of preeclampsia (e.g., severe headaches, vision changes, abdominal pain) or if test results are positive for risk assessment.
Limitations
- ⚠May not detect all genetic variants associated with preeclampsia
- ⚠Results should be interpreted in conjunction with clinical findings
- ⚠Not a standalone diagnostic tool; requires clinical correlation
- ⚠Limited to CORIN gene mutations; other genetic factors not assessed
Risks & Considerations
- ●Minor bruising or discomfort at blood draw site
- ●Rare risk of infection or fainting
- ●Emotional impact of genetic results
Interfering Factors
