About Malarial Antigen Detection Test

Why is the malarial antigen detection test done?

The malaria antigen test in Kolkata is done in order to understand which strain of the plasmodium protozoa is causing malaria. People who are living in areas prone to malaria or have been bitten by mosquitoes and start showing symptoms are advised to go for a malaria antigen test in Kolkata. When a doctor prescribes the patient to go for a malaria antigen test near me, it is because the patient is exhibiting the following symptoms:

  • Fever
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Extreme fatigue
  • Body and joint aches
  • Diarrhea
  • Symptoms of jaundice
  • Blood in stools
  • Convulsions
  • Headaches

For malaria, early detection of the strain is crucial for the patient’s survival. Symptoms of the disease are seen after 2 weeks into the infection. Often the starting symptoms are confused with those of flu, but the onset of confusions and convulsions mean that that patient is suffering from malaria.

What does the malarial antigen detection test measure

When a malaria antigen test in Kolkata is prescribed, the doctors want to know which strain of the protozoa is causing the disease. This identification is done by checking the antigens that are present in the patient’s body. Malaria is a widespread disease and causes many deaths every year. Malaria is spread via the female Anopheles mosquito and people living in areas infested with mosquitoes and poor living conditions are often at higher risk.

There are two main protozoa that causes malaria:

  • Plasmodium vivax is found in Asia and Latin America mainly. The parasite can enter the blood and stay dormant for years to before becoming active and infecting the person. This parasite gives rise to benign malaria.
  • Plasmodium falciparum is found mainly in Africa. This parasite is the most common cause of death due to malaria. The parasite can multiply rapidly and cause clogging of the blood vessels. Malignant malaria that is often accompanied by jaundice is caused by this parasite.

Doctors need to conduct the antigen test to correctly identify the parasite so appropriate treatment can be started.

Risk/side effects of malarial antigen detection test

Getting a malaria antigen test in Kolkata is not painful or causes too much bleeding unless the person has a condition that prevents earlier clotting of blood. The test has no side effects nor does the drawing of blood pose any risk to the patient. Experienced phlebotomists can draw blood with a needle without causing much pain or blood loss to the patient.

Ms Sujata arrived on time and was very polite and caring throughout the process. Actually there was a mistake on my part where I couldn't attend her calls because I was not well and i feel asleep bcoz of my medicines. I had scheduled an appointment for my mother but Ms Sujata somehow reached my address by asking my neighbours. Such a lovely girl, and also the collection process was really smooth. Would absolutely recommend everyone to check out their services
