Test Code F822B Hemophilia A F8 Gene, Intron 22 Inversion Known Mutation, Whole Blood

Useful For

First-tier molecular testing for male patients affected with severe hemophilia A, when a familial intron 22 inversion has been previously identified

 

Determining hemophilia A carrier status for at-risk female patients, ie, individuals with a family history of severe hemophilia A due to F8 intron 22 inversion

Reflex Tests

Test ID Reporting Name Available Separately Always Performed
MATCC Maternal Cell Contamination, B Yes No

Testing Algorithm

Maternal cell contamination testing will be performed for all cord blood specimens. A maternal whole blood sample with an order for MATCC / Maternal Cell Contamination, Molecular Analysis, Blood is required to perform this test. See Additional Testing Requirements.

 

The following algorithms are available:

-Hemophilia Carrier Testing Algorithm

-Hemophilia Testing Algorithm

Reporting Name

HA F8 Intron 22 Inversion KM, B

Specimen Type

Whole blood


Ordering Guidance


If a familial variant has not been identified in a severely affected hemophilia A patient, order F8INV / Hemophilia A F8 Gene, Intron 1 and 22 Inversion Mutation Analysis, Whole Blood.

 

For evaluation of a patient with bleeding symptoms and no known personal history of a bleeding disorder consider ALBLD / Bleeding Diathesis Profile, Limited, Plasma or the specific factor assays.



Additional Testing Requirements


Due to the complexity of testing non-peripheral blood, consultation with the laboratory is required for all cord blood samples. Order this test on the cord blood specimen (only 1 specimen tube required) and order MATCC / Maternal Cell Contamination, Molecular Analysis, Blood on the maternal specimen.



Necessary Information


Hemophilia A Patient Information (T712) is required. Testing may proceed without the patient information, however, the information aids in providing a more thorough interpretation. Ordering providers are strongly encouraged to fill out the form and send with the specimen.



Specimen Required


Patient Preparation: A previous bone marrow transplant from an allogenic donor will interfere with testing. Call 800-533-1710 for instructions for testing patients who have received a bone marrow transplant.
