Overview

TORCH 10 parameters IgG and IgM is a blood test panel used to detect antibodies against ten different infections in pregnant women. The acronym TORCH stands for Toxoplasmosis, Other (Syphilis, Varicella-Zoster, Parvovirus B19), Rubella, Cytomegalovirus, and Herpes simplex virus. The test is performed by collecting a blood sample from the patient, which is then analyzed in a laboratory. The results can help identify potential risks to the developing fetus and allow for appropriate medical interventions.

Who should do this test?

Pregnant women: TORCH panel testing is routinely recommended for pregnant women as these infections can cause fetal abnormalities or miscarriage.

Newborns with congenital abnormalities: TORCH testing may be recommended for newborns with congenital abnormalities to identify any potential infections that could have caused the abnormalities.

Individuals with weakened immune systems: TORCH testing may be recommended for individuals with weakened immune systems, such as those with HIVAIDS or undergoing chemotherapy, as they are more susceptible to infections and may have more severe symptoms.

What to do if the test is abnormal?

The first step is to consult with a medical professional who can help interpret the results and provide further testing if necessary. An obstetrician, infectious disease specialist, or pediatrician may be the best healthcare provider to consult in this case.

Depending on the specific abnormality in the TORCH 10 parameters IgG and IgM, further testing may be necessary. For example, if there is an abnormality in the rubella component, a rubella-specific IgM test may be recommended to confirm a recent infection.

It is important to remember that abnormal results do not necessarily indicate a problem or disease. However, it is always important to follow up with a healthcare provider to ensure appropriate management and monitoring.
