What is Filarial Parasite (Card Test) ?

The Filarial Parasite Card Test is a rapid diagnostic tool used to detect the presence of filarial antigens in a blood sample. It helps diagnose infections caused by Wuchereria bancrofti, the parasite responsible for lymphatic filariasis, commonly known as elephantiasis. The card test offers quick results, making it an efficient option for labs that require immediate diagnostic answers for patients suspected of harboring filarial infections.

Filarial Parasite (Card Test) Report Format: Breakdown

Here’s what an ideal Filarial Parasite (Card Test) report format should include:

Header Information:

  • Patient Details: Full name, Age, Gender, and ID.
  • TAT information: Timestamp for both sample collection and report generation.
  • Doctor's Information: Name of the referral doctor, if applicable.

MF Card test Interpretation

In Labsmart software, this is the inbuilt interpretation for Filarial Parasite (Card Test)

Result Remarks
Detected Indicates the presence of circulating Wuchereria bancrofti antigen.
Not Detected Indicates absence of circulating Wuchereria bancrofti antigen

Note:  
- Positive results are seen in parasitic disease of the human lymph system caused by Wuchereria bancrofti (W. bancrofti) leading to conditions like lymphedema, hydrocele and disfiguring disease of elephantiasis.
- Results should be correlated with clinical conditions and tests like thick smear microscopy and membrane filtration test. 
- False positive results may be due to cross-reactivity with Loa loa spp or other nematode infection. 
- False negative reactions may be due to the processing of samples collected early in the course of disease or low threshold of antigen. The test should be repeated on a new specimen obtained after two weeks.

Uses
- To diagnose lymphatic and non-lymphatic filariasis. 
- For mapping the endemicity of lymphatic filariasis. 
- For monitoring and transmission assessment surveys (TAS) of Wuchereria bancrofti.

Importance of adding interpretation to reports:

It's very helpful to add interpretation in reports as it makes the reports more patient friendly and also helpful to doctors in some cases. Moreover, presently most labs prefer providing reports with interpretation. Thus, adding interpretation to report will help your lab stay at par with other competitor labs.
