Hemoglobin Electrophoresis in Pune

What is Hemoglobin Electrophoresis

Hemoglobin Electrophoresis is a laboratory test that separates different types of hemoglobin in the blood. It helps to diagnose and monitor conditions such as sickle cell anemia and thalassemias. The test is performed by applying an electric field to a blood sample, which causes different types of hemoglobin to move at different speeds and separate into distinct bands. The resulting pattern is then analyzed and interpreted by a trained healthcare professional.

Who should do this test?

Individuals with a family history of hemoglobin disorders such as sickle cell anemia or thalassemia.

• People who are experiencing symptoms of anemia such as fatigue, weakness, and shortness of breath.
• Pregnant women, especially those with a family history of hemoglobin disorders, as it can help identify the risk of passing the disorder to the baby.

What to do if the test is abnormal?

• Consult with a healthcare provider: If the results of hemoglobin electrophoresis are abnormal, the first step is to consult with a healthcare provider. They can explain the results and what they mean for the patients health. Additionally, the healthcare provider may recommend further testing or refer the patient to a specialist for further evaluation and treatment.
• Follow up with recommended treatment: Depending on the specific abnormality detected by the hemoglobin electrophoresis, treatment may be necessary. This may involve medications, dietary changes, or other interventions. It is important for the patient to follow up with their healthcare provider and adhere to any recommended treatment to manage their condition effectively.
• Monitor their health: Patients with abnormal results on hemoglobin electrophoresis should continue to monitor their health and report any new or worsening symptoms to their healthcare provider. Regular check-ups and follow-up testing may be necessary to ensure that the patients condition is properly managed over time.
