FAQs of Neonatal Toxoplasma Gondii IgM FEIA:
Q: How is the Neonatal Toxoplasma Gondii IgM FEIA test administered in clinical settings?
A: The assay is administered by trained medical professionals in hospitals or clinics. A small blood sample is collected from the neonate and the test is performed using Fluorescent Enzyme Immunoassay (FEIA) technology to detect Toxoplasma Gondii IgM antibodies.
Q: What is the main benefit of using this test for neonates?
A: The main benefit is early detection of Toxoplasma Gondii infection, enabling timely intervention and minimizing the risk of complications associated with congenital toxoplasmosis.
Q: When should this test be performed on a neonate?
A: Testing is typically conducted if there is suspicion of congenital infection or if mothers have known or suspected Toxoplasma exposure during pregnancy. Early screening is recommended for at-risk newborns.
Q: Where should the Neonatal Toxoplasma Gondii IgM FEIA test be stored?
A: The test kit should be stored in a cool and dry place to preserve its chemical integrity and ensure accurate performance.
Q: What is the recommended dosage for this diagnostic test?
A: The standard dosage for the assay is 0.1 mmol/kg, as per the manufacturers guidance for neonatal use.
Q: Who is this test suitable for?
A: It is suitable for all neonates requiring Toxoplasma Gondii IgM antibody screening, under clinical supervision.
Q: What is the process after a positive test result?
A: If a positive result is obtained, immediate medical evaluation is advised. Further diagnostic tests and treatment initiation may be recommended based on clinical protocols.
