What Is Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) , VDRL Test & SGOT Test?

Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) , VDRL Test & SGOT Test

Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) is a procedure used in in-vitro fertilization (IVF) to test for genetic disorders before embryos are implanted at the Best Hospital for Pregnancy Test in Bangalore. It allows for the identification of genetic abnormalities, ensuring only healthy embryos are transferred.

A VDRL (Venereal Disease Research Laboratory) test is used to screen for syphilis, a sexually transmitted infection. It detects the presence of antibodies that indicate a current or past syphilis infection.

The SGOT (Serum Glutamic-Oxaloacetic Transaminase) test measures the level of a liver enzyme in the blood. Elevated SGOT levels can indicate liver damage or disease, making it a useful diagnostic tool.

Types

Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) is a crucial test performed at the Best Hospital for Pregnancy Test in Bangalore, Sai Specialty Center, to screen embryos for genetic abnormalities before implantation. This helps identify and prevent the transfer of embryos with genetic disorders, ensuring a healthy pregnancy and baby. PGD is particularly important for couples with a history of genetic conditions or who are at risk of passing on inherited diseases.

The VDRL (Venereal Disease Research Laboratory) test is used to detect the presence of syphilis, a sexually transmitted infection. This test is routinely performed at the Best Hospital for Pregnancy Test in Bangalore, Sai Specialty Center, to screen for syphilis and ensure timely treatment, preventing the spread of the disease and potential complications.

The SGOT (Serum Glutamic-Oxaloacetic Transaminase) test measures the levels of a specific enzyme in the blood, which can indicate liver damage or dysfunction. This test is crucial in assessing liver health and detecting any underlying liver-related conditions that may require further investigation or treatment.

Procedures of Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) , VDRL Test & SGOT Test

Procedures

Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) is a technique that helps find genetic flaws in embryos before implantation. It involves removing one or more cells from an embryo created through in vitro fertilization and testing it for certain genetic disorders. PGD allows couples to reduce the risk of passing on inherited conditions to their children.

The VDRL (Venereal Disease Research Laboratory) test is a screening tool used to detect syphilis, a sexually transmitted infection. It measures the presence of certain antibodies in the blood that indicate a current or past syphilis infection. A positive VDRL result requires further testing to confirm the diagnosis.

The SGOT (Serum Glutamic-Oxaloacetic Transaminase) test measures the amount of this enzyme in the blood, which can indicate liver damage or disease. Elevated SGOT levels may be a sign of conditions like hepatitis, cirrhosis, or a heart attack. This test is commonly used as part of a standard metabolic panel to assess overall liver function.

Why These three tests important?

Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) , VDRL Test & SGOT Test all have each of their own major core importance and that are listed below.

  • Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis: Screens genetic abnormalities.
  • VDRL Test: Detects syphilis exposure.
  • SGOT Test: Evaluates liver health.
  • Genetic Insights: Informs family planning.
  • Infection Identification: Enables timely treatment.
  • Liver Evaluation: Monitors organ function.

When to take Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) , VDRL Test & SGOT Test

  • PGD allows for the screening of embryos before implantation, ensuring the transfer of a healthy embryo.
  • The VDRL (Venereal Disease Research Laboratory) is typically recommended during pregnancy to prevent congenital syphilis.
  • The SGOT (Serum Glutamic-Oxaloacetic Transaminase) test is performed if there are concerns about liver health or as part of a routine health check.

Frequently Asked Questions?

FAQ

With a reported accuracy rate of about 90%, preimplantation genetic screening, or PGS, is widely considered accurate. Nonetheless, the precision may differ based on the particular examination employed and the caliber of the embryos undergoing examination.

Preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) consists of the following steps:
  • biopsy of the embryo
  • extraction of DNA
  • amplification of the PCR
  • microarray analysis
  • interpretation of the results

Usually, the procedure takes a few days to a week.

No, fasting is not necessary for a serum glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) test. The test quantifies blood enzyme levels, which are unaffected by dietary consumption. It is advised to stay away from demanding activities and large meals the night before the exam, nevertheless.

After the initial infection, the Venereal Disease Research Laboratory (VDRL) test may continue to be positive for several months or even years. The severity of the infection, the person's immune system, and the existence of any underlying medical disorders are some of the variables that affect how long a person remains positive.
