Overview
Serum Protein Electrophoresis is a laboratory test that separates proteins in the blood based on their electrical charge and size. This test is used to identify abnormal protein levels in the blood, such as in multiple myeloma or other conditions. The test is performed by applying a small amount of blood to a gel matrix and applying an electric current, which causes the proteins to migrate and separate based on their electrical charge and size. The separated proteins are then visualized and analyzed to identify any abnormalities.
Who should do this test?
Individuals with symptoms of multiple myeloma, a type of cancer that affects plasma cells in bone marrow, such as bone pain, frequent infections, and fatigue.
Patients with unexplained kidney disease, as abnormal protein levels in the blood can be a sign of kidney damage.
Monitoring the effectiveness of treatment in patients with known plasma cell disorders, such as multiple myeloma or amyloidosis.
What to do if the test is abnormal?
The first step is to consult with a physician or specialist who can interpret the results and provide a diagnosis. Abnormal results may indicate a range of conditions, including multiple myeloma, autoimmune disorders, and liver or kidney disease, among others.
Additional diagnostic tests may be recommended based on the initial results, including imaging studies or other blood tests. Depending on the underlying cause of the abnormal results, treatment may involve medication, lifestyle changes, or other interventions.
Patients should also be advised to follow up with their physician regularly and to report any new symptoms or changes in their health status. Regular monitoring and follow-up testing may be necessary to ensure that the condition is properly managed and to detect any potential complications.
