ABOUT TEST

– Parvovirus B19 preferentially replicates in erythroid progenitor cells. Infection with parvovirus B19 occurs early in life and the virus is transmitted by respiratory secretion and occasionally by blood products. Antibody prevalence ranges from 2% to 15% in early adults.
Parvovirus B19 may result in an asymptomatic infection or produce a wide spectrum of disease ranging from erythema infections (slapped cheek syndrome or fifth disease) in children to arthropathy, severe anemia, and systemic manifestations involving the central nervous system, heart, and liver depending on the immune competence of the host. Infection with parvovirus B19 in pregnant women may cause hydrops fetalis, congenital anaemia, abortion, or stillbirth of the fetus. Parvovirus B19 is also the causative agent of persistent anemia usually, but not exclusively, in immune-compromised patients, transplant patients, and infants.
This is a nucleic acid test performed on a Real Time PCR Platform.
