Know more about this test

The Lipase test is used to evaluate the levels of lipase enzyme (a type of digestive enzyme that helps your body to digest fat) made by the pancreas. It is available at an affordable price in Navi Mumbai with Tata 1mg Labs. The Lipase test is important to diagnose pancreas-related disorders such as pancreatitis (inflammation in the pancreas), blockages, and pancreas-associated chronic diseases. You may need the Lipase test if you experience upper abdominal pain radiating to the back, abdominal tenderness, nausea, pale stool, bloating, jaundice, rapid pulse, and fever.

A high lipase level may suggest pancreatic conditions like blocked duct, pancreatic cancer, peptic ulcer, or gallbladder disease. Conversely, a low lipase level may indicate permanent damage to pancreatic cells, often seen in chronic diseases like cystic fibrosis. Additionally, your doctor may request this test to evaluate treatment response. No special preparation is required for a lipase test, and you can maintain your regular eating and drinking routine.

Understanding Lipase

Lipase is a digestive enzyme that helps your body digest fat. The pancreas, an organ behind the lower part of your abdomen, produces most lipase. It is also made by your salivary (spit) glands and the stomach, and a small amount is also present in the blood. 

If there is a(n) injury/infection/disease, the function of the pancreas can be impaired, which can increase or decrease the production of lipase. An elevated level of lipase may indicate pancreatic diseases like blocked duct or pancreatic cancer, peptic ulcer, gallbladder disease, etc. At the same time, a low level of lipase may be a sign of permanent damage to the pancreatic cells that make lipase. This may happen in certain chronic (long-lasting) diseases, such as cystic fibrosis.

You may need the Lipase test when you experience symptoms such as pain in the upper abdomen that may go to the back, tenderness in the stomach, nausea, pale stool, a full or bloated feeling, jaundice, or the yellowing of the eyes, rapid pulse or heartbeat, and fever. Your doctor may also order this test to check your treatment response. No special preparation is needed for a lipase test. You can eat or drink generally as per your daily routine. 

Test result ranges are approximate and may differ slightly between labs depending on the methodology and laboratory guidelines. Talk to your doctor about your specific test results. The results will help them determine your medical condition, make recommendations for lifestyle modifications such as diet and exercise, decide whether or not medication will be required to manage your condition and formulate an overall treatment plan.

What does Lipase measure?

The Lipase test measures the total amount of lipase enzyme present in the blood. The lipase enzyme breaks down fats (lipids) into smaller molecules. In the gut, it is crucial for digestion, transportation, and the usage of dietary fats and oils. The main source of lipase is the pancreas–the same gland that makes insulin. After a meal, your pancreas releases pancreatic lipase into your digestive tract, where it breaks down triglycerides from fats and oils into smaller molecules like monoglycerides and fatty acids that are easier to absorb. A deranged level of lipase may indicate disease affecting the pancreas.

FAQs related to Lipase in Navi Mumbai

The Lipase test can be done when you experience symptoms of a pancreatic disorder, such as severe abdominal pain, fever, loss of appetite, or nausea. It is also used to monitor the treatment response of pancreatitis.
There is usually no risk associated with this test. However, some people may feel a slight sting when a needle is pricked and may also experience some bleeding, which is normal and usually not bothersome. Rarely, some people may also experience slight swelling or bruising at the site of the needle prick. Applying ice 3-4 times a day for about a week may help reduce swelling and bruising. If it does not get better, consult your doctor.
Pancreatitis refers to the inflammation of the pancreas. The symptoms of pancreatitis include abdominal pain that radiates to your back, abdominal pain that feels worse after eating, indigestion, fat in stool, nausea or vomiting, loss of appetite, fast heart rate, weight loss, etc.
Generally, acute pancreatitis does not cause any long-term damage. However, chronic pancreatitis may follow a series of acute attacks but is almost always due to many years of alcohol abuse (although other conditions such as cystic fibrosis can also damage the pancreas). It causes permanent pancreatic damage with scarring and calcium deposits. In some people, pancreatitis may lead to the development of insulin-dependent diabetes.
Lipase levels are usually elevated in case of pancreatitis. But its levels may also be increased in conditions like kidney failure, cirrhosis, or a bowel problem.
Higher-than-normal levels of lipase in the blood may suggest acute pancreatitis, chronic kidney disease, peptic ulcer, gallbladder disease, intestinal problems like intestinal blocking, bowel obstruction, diabetes, or alcohol use disorder.
To lower the lipase levels, you need to work with your doctor and address the underlying issue triggering the lipase increase. However, adopting some healthy habits, such as avoiding alcohol, staying hydrated, and trying to cut off fat from your diet, may help to control its levels.
Additional tests that may be prescribed in case of abnormal lipase test results are amylase test, abdominal imaging tests (CT scan, MRI, ultrasound, or MR cholangiopancreatography), liver function test, kidney function test, and blood sugar test.
