Understanding Viral Respiratory Panel with HMPV in Sonipat


What is Viral Respiratory Panel with HMPV in Sonipat?

The Viral Respiratory Panel with HMPV is a comprehensive molecular panel for qualitative detection of various respiratory viral pathogens, including human metapneumovirus (HMPV), human parainfluenza viruses, influenza A and B (including H1N1/swine flu and H3N2 subtypes), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and more responsible for respiratory infections such as the flu or the common cold, enabling precise identification of the underlying viral causes. This panel is widely available with Tata 1mg labs in Sonipat at an affordable price.

The Viral Respiratory Panel with HMPV is recommended when there are symptoms such as cough, sore throat, runny nose, nasal congestion, headache, and low-grade fever indicative of flu or a similar respiratory illness. By detecting multiple viruses simultaneously, this panel helps doctors quickly diagnose the cause of respiratory illnesses, differentiate between similar viral infections, and tailor treatment strategies, especially during cold and flu season or in outbreak situations. Monitoring for specific viral infections such as human metapneumovirus (HMPV) is crucial, as it can lead to severe respiratory illness in vulnerable populations like young children, older adults, and immunocompromised individuals.

No special preparation is required for the Viral Respiratory Panel with HMPV. Eat and drink as per the daily routine.

What does Viral Respiratory Panel with HMPV measure?

Contains 18 tests

The Viral Respiratory Panel with HMPV tests for a wide variety of respiratory viruses to provide an in-depth understanding of respiratory health. It includes human metapneumovirus (A/B), which can cause illnesses ranging from mild cold symptoms to severe lung infections, especially in vulnerable populations. It also checks for the stains of human parechovirus and human coronavirus, both known to cause respiratory and gastrointestinal illnesses, and strains of human parainfluenza viruses (types 1, 2, 3, and 4), which are responsible for respiratory infections, including croup (infection of the vocal cords) and pneumonia. The panel also covers influenza A (including H3N2 and pandemic H1), influenza B and C, and enterovirus, all of which contribute to seasonal flu outbreaks. Additionally, it includes testing for human adenovirus, human respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), human rhinovirus, and human bocavirus, all of which are common causes of respiratory infections. Furthermore, RNASE P (IC) is included as an internal control to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the test results by verifying suitable conditions for precise RNA analysis.

Human Parechovirus

The Human Parechovirus test measures the presence of parechovirus RNA (genetic material) in a patient's sample, typically taken from the nose or throat swab. Parechovirus is a virus found in the respiratory and digestive systems, and it can cause mild to severe illnesses, particularly in infants, ranging from cold-like symptoms to more serious neurological or gastrointestinal issues. This test detects if the virus is present by converting any viral RNA into DNA through the RT-PCR process, followed by amplification to identify even small amounts of the virus. A positive result indicates an active parechovirus infection, while a negative result shows no virus was detected at the time of testing. It also aids in distinguishing enterovirus infections from other respiratory viruses that may present with similar symptoms, helping to prevent complications and ensuring proper diagnosis and treatment.

Human Coronavirus

The Human Coronavirus test measures the presence of the genetic material (RNA) of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes coronavirus (COVID-19) infection. The test works by collecting a sample, typically from the nose or throat, and using an RT PCR process to convert any viral RNA into DNA. This DNA is then amplified and analyzed to determine if the virus is present. A positive result indicates an active infection, while a negative result suggests the absence of the virus at the time of testing.  It also helps distinguish Corona Virus infection from other respiratory illnesses causing similar symptoms, and guiding proper treatment. It is considered one of the most reliable methods for detecting COVID-19.

RNASE P (IC)

The RNASE P (IC) test is used in the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) protocol as an internal control (IC) for the detection of COVID-19, since this is a multi-copy gene that is abundant in the human genome, and therefore is easily detectable. Ribonuclease P (RNase P) is an endoribonuclease that cleaves other RNA molecules at the junction between a single-stranded region and the 5′ end of a double-stranded region. The enzyme is one of only two ribozymes that can be found in all kingdoms of life (Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya).
