Allergen, Region 4 Respiratory Panel IgE, Subtropic Florida (S. of Orlando)
Also known as: REG4PANEL
Use
This test is designed to provide allergen testing for patients located in subtropical Florida, specifically south of Orlando. It assesses the presence of specific IgE antibodies against various allergens that are prevalent in this geographical region, which is important for the diagnosis and management of allergic diseases. Clinicians use it to correlate the laboratory results with the patient's clinical history and in vivo reactivity to specific allergens.
Special Instructions
Not provided.
Limitations
The clinical relevance of allergen results between 0.10-0.34 kU/L is undetermined and intended for specialist use only. Correlation of laboratory allergen-specific IgE concentrations with clinical history and skin test results is critical, as these levels may not directly correlate with clinical responses or outcomes. A negative test result does not exclude the possibility of clinical allergy or anaphylaxis.
