PROTEIN C FUNCTIONAL Test: Cost, Symptoms, and Diagnosis

Protein C is a natural anticoagulant that helps prevent blood clots from forming in the body. A deficiency in protein C can lead to an increased risk of thrombosis, a condition where blood clots form in the veins or arteries. The protein C functional test is used to measure the amount of protein C activity in the blood and diagnose a protein C deficiency. In this blog, we will discuss the cost, symptoms, and diagnosis of the protein C functional test.

Cost of the Protein C Functional Test

The cost of the protein C functional test in India is around INR 5500. However, the cost may vary depending on the location and the lab where the test is performed. It is advisable to check with the lab for the exact cost before getting the test done.

Symptoms of Protein C Deficiency

Protein C deficiency may not cause any symptoms in some people, but in others, it can lead to the development of blood clots. The symptoms of blood clots include:

  • Pain and swelling in the affected area
  • Warmth and redness in the affected area
  • Shortness of breath
  • Chest pain
  • Coughing up blood
  • Headaches
  • Dizziness

If you experience any of these symptoms, it is important to seek medical attention immediately.

Diagnosis of Protein C Deficiency

The protein C functional test is used to diagnose a protein C deficiency. The test measures the amount of protein C activity in the blood. A low level of protein C activity indicates a protein C deficiency. If the test results are abnormal, further testing may be required to determine the underlying cause of the deficiency.

Other tests that may be performed to diagnose protein C deficiency include:

  • Protein C antigen test
  • Genetic testing
  • Blood clotting tests

If you have a family history of protein C deficiency or have experienced blood clots in the past, it is important to talk to your doctor about getting tested for the condition.

Conclusion

The protein C functional test is a simple blood test that can diagnose a protein C deficiency. The cost of the test in India is around INR 5500. If you experience any symptoms of blood clots or have a family history of protein C deficiency, it is important to talk to your doctor about getting tested. Early diagnosis and treatment can help prevent the development of serious complications.
