HPV – genetic test (16 genotypes) qualitatively

• Dopochwowe preparaty nawilżające zakłócają działanie testu i wpływają na wynik badania. Nie należy ich stosować przed badaniem. Produkty do higieny intymnej i żele antykoncepcyjne nie wpływają na wynik badania.

• Badania nie należy wykonywać:
  – podczas miesiączki,
  – podczas leczenia antybiotykami,
  – podczas leczenia preparatami dopochwowymi (globulki, kremy),
  – gdy stosowane są irygacje,
  – w ciągu 48 godzin od ostatniego stosunku płciowego.
  W dniu badania należy umyć zewnętrzne okolice narządów płciowych z zastosowaniem łagodnego żelu do higieny intymnej, nie stosować mydła.
  Jeśli stosowane było leczenie, zaleca się 3-5 dniową przerwę pomiędzy zakończeniem leczenia,
  a wykonaniem testu.
• The test material in women is a cervical swab.

• The test material is a swab from the genital groove.
  If treatment was used, it is recommended that there be a 3-5 day break between the end of treatment,
  and the performance of the test.
  Before taking the material for the test:
  - do not use antibiotics, steroids, medicated creams,
  - do not wash genitals for at least 48 hours (72 hours recommended to increase the effectiveness of virus detection),
  - do not have sex for at least 24 hours.

Samples brought from outside are not accepted for testing.
It is necessary to attach a document-"Referral and consent for genetic testing(HPV,Chlamydia trachomatis) LUXMED. Available in the Patient's Essentials-Downloadable forms.

The test is intended to detect the presence of HPV DNA and is a qualitative test.
The test detects the presence of two non-oncogenic types of the virus: 6 and 11, responsible for the development of condylomata acuminata (condyloma acuminata) and oncogenic types of the HPV virus: type 16 and 18 and a total of 12 other genotypes from the group with high oncogenic potential, i.e.: 31,33,3539,45,51,52,56,58,59,66,68, without their genotyping. Which means that the detection of the presence of the HPV virus from this group (Other) is reported in the result as "DETECTED", without the possibility of indicating specifically which of these genotypes is present in the patient's material.

The test is performed by polymerase chain reaction( PCR) in real time ( Real Time PCR).

The performance of this test is recommended especially to exclude / confirm condylomata acuminata ( condylomata acuminata) and in couples planning offspring and pregnant women . In the case of pregnant women, detection of genotypes 6 and 11 may be an indication of

for delivery by cesarean section (risk of infection of the baby's respiratory tract during natural delivery).
