Hepatitis A Ab Total w/Reflex to IgM

The Hepatitis A Antibody (Total) test measures both IgM and IgG antibodies against the Hepatitis A virus (HAV). This test is essential for assessing an individual’s exposure to Hepatitis A, which can indicate either a recent or past infection or successful vaccination against the virus. This comprehensive testing approach is vital for diagnosing Hepatitis A, guiding treatment decisions, and determining the need for vaccination. Understanding the timing and type of Hepatitis A infection helps prevent transmission and ensures appropriate healthcare interventions.
