The HCV by ELISA Test (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) is a reliable blood test used to detect antibodies against the Hepatitis C virus (HCV) in the bloodstream.
This test helps identify HCV infection, which affects liver health and, if untreated, can lead to complications such as liver damage, cirrhosis, and liver cancer.
Detecting HCV early allows for timely treatment, helping to prevent serious liver complications. This test is essential for diagnosing recent and past infections, even if the person shows no symptoms, as Hepatitis C can remain asymptomatic in the early stages.
1. People with Known Exposure to HCV: Anyone exposed to HCV-infected blood or unsterile needles should be tested.
2. Individuals with Liver Symptoms: Symptoms like jaundice, dark urine, or abdominal pain may suggest liver issues, making testing beneficial.
3. High-Risk Individuals: Those with multiple sexual partners, a history of blood transfusions, or past drug use are advised to consider this test.
