Invitae Hereditary Thrombophilia Panel
Use
The Invitae Hereditary Thrombophilia Panel analyzes genes that are associated with hereditary thrombophilia. Hereditary thrombophilia is characterized by increased clotting tendency and increased risk for deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and/or venous thromboembolism (VTE). By evaluating multiple genes associated with these conditions, the test provides a comprehensive assessment to aid in understanding the genetic propensity for thrombophilia.

Not provided.
Limitations
The assay achieves >99% analytical sensitivity and specificity for variants such as SNVs, insertions, and deletions (<15bp), but may be less sensitive for larger insertions/deletions smaller than a full exon. Rare single-exon copy number events might not be analyzed due to sequence properties or data quality. Structural rearrangements or variants in complex regions might not be detected. Mosaicism, phasing, or mapping ambiguity may not be resolved. Certain non-coding regions are not covered unless specified.
