The Invitae Hypoglycemia panel is designed for patients experiencing recurrent episodes of hypoglycemia, which can present with symptoms such as sweating, weakness, tremor, and vomiting. If left untreated, these episodes can escalate to seizures, confusion, irritability, coma, and death. This genetic panel helps in confirming a diagnosis, thereby facilitating appropriate treatment and management strategies. The test assesses genes associated with various conditions like glycogen storage disorders, congenital disorders of glycosylation, fatty acid oxidation disorders, branched chain organic acidurias, and congenital hyperinsulinism.
