The HIV-1 RNA Viral load by Taqman RT PCR (Quantitative) test measures how much HIV is in the blood (viral load). It helps doctors decide when to start HIV medicines, check if antiretroviral therapy (ART) is working, and identify problems such as drug resistance.
This test is needed at the time of HIV diagnosis, when starting or changing antiretroviral therapy, and every 3-6 months during treatment. It can also detect HIV earlier than standard tests in some cases. This is not intended for initial HIV screening; the individual needs a confirmed diagnosis first.
No special preparation is needed for this test. However, it is important to complete the HIV testing consent form and have pre-test counseling (Annexure - CR/01) before giving the sample.
What does HIV-1 RNA Viral load by Taqman RT PCR (Quantitative) measure?
The HIV-1 RNA Viral load by Taqman RT PCR (Quantitative) test measures the number of copies of the HIV-1 genetic material (RNA) in the blood. It shows how actively the virus is multiplying in the body. This helps doctors monitor how well HIV treatment is working and whether the virus is under control. A normal (low or undetectable) viral load indicates that treatment is working effectively and the virus is under control. An elevated viral load may suggest treatment failure, drug resistance, or poor adherence to medication. This test is also used to guide treatment decisions and track disease progression.
