HEPATITIS A VIRUS ANTIBODY IGM(HAVM) RAPID TEST

The hepatitis A virus antibody (IgM) rapid test detects IgM antibodies against the hepatitis A virus, indicating a recent or acute infection. This test is used to diagnose hepatitis A, a highly contagious liver infection spread through contaminated food and water. A positive result suggests an active infection, prompting immediate medical attention and preventive measures to avoid spreading the virus. The test is valuable for diagnosing acute hepatitis A, guiding appropriate treatment, and implementing public health interventions to control outbreaks and prevent further transmission.
