Positive results for this test are reported to the CDC. Fasting Required: No Lab: Quest Diagnostics Specimen: Blood and Urine. The patient should not have urinated for at least one hour prior to specimen collection. Female patients should not cleanse the labial area prior to providing the specimen. Results: Average processing time 7-10 days Note: Result turnaround times are an estimate and are not guaranteed. Our reference lab may need additional time due to weather, holidays, confirmation/repeat testing, or equipment maintenance. Patient Instructions: Dietary supplements containing biotin may interfere in assays and may skew results to be either falsely high or falsely low. For patients receiving the recommended daily doses of biotin, draw samples at least 8 hours following the last biotin supplementation. For patients on mega-doses of biotin supplements, draw samples at least 72 hours following the last biotin supplementation. Description: Chlamydia & Gonorrhea are both extremely common STD's that can infect both men and women. Almost 75% of female infections and 50% of male infections do not have symptoms. A pregnant woman with chlamydia or gonorrhea can pass the infection to her baby during childbirth. This is a non-treponemal screening test for Syphilis . False positive results may occur due to systemic lupus erythematosus, leprosy, brucellosis, atypical pneumonia, typhus, yaws, pinta, or pregnancy. Monitoring of RPR is helpful in assessing effectiveness of therapy. If RPR screen is reactive, RPR Titer and Fluorescent Treponemal Antibody (FTA) Confirmatory testing will be performed. Herpes Simplex Virus 1 and 2 (IgG), Type-Specific Antibodies - Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) is responsible for several clinically significant human viral diseases, with severity ranging from inapparent to fatal. Clinical manifestations include genital tract infections, neonatal herpes, meningoencephalitis, keratoconjunctivitis, and gingivostomatitis. There are two HSV serotypes that are closely related antigenically. HSV Type 2 is more commonly associated with genital tract and neonatal infections, while HSV Type 1 is more commonly associated with infections of non-genital sites. Specific typing is not usually required for diagnosis or treatment. The mean time to seroconversion using the type specific assay is 25 days Hepatitis B Core Antibody (IgM) can be used to help detect acute and chronic HBV infections; the IgM antibody is the first antibody produced after infection with HBV. Hepatitis A IgM Antibody develops within a week of symptom onset, peaks in three months, and is usually gone after six months. The IgM antibody test detects the first antibody produced by the body when it is exposed to hepatitis A. This test is used to detect early or recent infections and to diagnose the disease in people with symptoms of acute hepatitis.
