Analysis of HBElectrophoresis
It is one of the most important tests because it shows the safety of children about the possibility and extent of pregnancy of genetic diseases specifically Thalassemia and sickle cell anemia. Hb Electrophoresis analysis is one of the most important tests for the diagnosis of hemoglobin (HbA). This type is the most present and is estimated to be about 98% of hemoglobin types. The other types are HbA2 and HbF, which are found in small quantities Very have HbF is not normal in adults and this is normal.
It is also noted in the case of the pregnant person that the previous rates change in addition to the presence of another Hmoblobin is (Hb S), in cases of sickle disease, sickle, which symbolizes the symbol (SICKLE), which is called sickle cell anemia, but in the case of Thalassemia disease, The diagnosis is complex, requiring studies of pathogenic genes to identify the type of thalassemia, the most common of which is beta-thalassemia and alpha-thalassemia, which is divided into many species.
In addition to the previous examination, a complete blood count (CBC), a basic blood test, is performed. The number of white blood cells, red blood cells, platelets, hemoglobin (Hb), red blood cell volume (MCV) MCHC), with reference to the presence of some variables in each of the previous diseases are as follows:
- These diseases, which are a type of anemia, affect hemoglobin as well as affect the color and size of blood cells (Hb, MCH, MCHC). There is often a decrease in hemoglobin, which in turn may be normal. MCV and MCHC) to see if a person is infected or not.
- If the result of CBC is normal, there is no electrical separation.
- If hemoglobin decreases or MCH and MCHC decrease, electrophoresis of the blood cells must be performed to determine the cause of the decline. This in turn is a confirmation procedure that requires considerable time and effort.
