Abbott offers a variety of diagnostic testing options for immunology, and the causes of inflammation. Test results can assist health care professionals in evaluating better treatment options for patients.
Testing levels of the complement system in the bloodstream can often monitor a patient’s inflammatory response. The complement system is a set of blood proteins that are integral in the destruction of viruses and bacteria, and is a natural part of the immune system.
This type of testing may be necessary in the diagnosis of persistent microbial infections, inflammation, or other ailments. In addition, complement testing may be ordered to help diagnose and monitor the activity of autoimmune diseases, such as lupus.
In general, C3 and C4 tests are used to verify if the complement system has become weak or inefficient -- this deficiency therefore resulting in, or contributing to a medical issue in the patient. In some cases, health care professionals deem testing of additional complement components necessary.
