No, there is no cure for Rubella infection
The rubella test can either confirm that a recent infection has occurred (both IgG and IgM are present) or that a patient has immunity to rubella (IgG only is present).
According to a Yahoo! Health article (http://health.yahoo.com/infectiousdisease-diagnosis/rubella-test/healthwise--hw5576.html):A rubella blood test detects antibodies that are made by the immune system to help kill the rubella virus. These antibodies remain in the bloodstream for years. The presence of certain antibodies indicates a recent infection, a past infection, or that you have been vaccinated against the disease.The presence of IgM antibodies means you have a current or recent rubella infection.The presence of IgG antibodies means you have immunity against the infection. This immunity could have been received either through vaccination for rubella or a past rubella infection.As long as the IgM test is negative, both you and your baby are in the clear!
Yes, the rubella test (igg) should be positive during pregnancy, which means that you have taken the vaccination prior. Negative result (igg) doesn't mean that you are infected with rubella, however this means that you doesn't have Rubella antibodies in your blood stream. If your result comes out negative, then you should perform another test for Rubella igm, positive results will confirm your infection with this virus.
The rubella test is a routine blood test performed as part of prenatal care of pregnant women.
The TORCH test, is sometimes called the TORCH panel
yes
yes
The answer is yes, probably. You do not do the torch test in normal cases. You will have to go for TORCH test after normal delivery in many patients. You will probably find few of them, who are TORCH positive.
Rubella (German measles) is a mild, three day infection that seldom leads to complications in children. However, rubella may cause birth deformities in babies born to mothers who are infected during pregnancy. Measles (rubeola) is a serious disease and is sometimes called "hard," "red," or "seven day measles." Individuals infected with measles frequently suffer from ear infections and/or pneumonia.
As far as i know IGG positive means you had infection in the past and IGM negative means u r not infected currently.
The CEA test will not separate the two groups.
According to LabCorp test results, a result for Rubella IgG of 292 IU/ml means that you are immune to Rubella. According to LabCorp test results, a result for Rubella IgG of 292 IU/ml means that you are immune to Rubella.
