Detects the presence of antibodies that target phospholipids, which are important components of cell membranes. High levels of these antibodies may indicate disorders such as antiphospholipid syndrome, which increases the risk of blood clots, recurrent miscarriages, and other immune-related issues.

Individuals with recurrent blood clots without an apparent cause. Women who have experienced recurrent miscarriages or pregnancy complications. People with autoimmune disorders, such as systemic lupus erythematosus. Patients suspected of having antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). Individuals with unexplained early-onset blood clotting problems.

Recurrent blood clots, either in veins or arteries. Recurrent miscarriages or pregnancy complications such as unexplained preterm birth. Chronic migraines or other unexplained neurological disorders. Low platelet count (thrombocytopenia). Skin symptoms such as ulcers or rashes resulting from circulatory issues. Symptoms related to autoimmune disorders, such as arthritis, or joint pain and swelling.

Why do I need this test? To detect antibodies that may increase the risk of blood clots or recurrent miscarriages and to diagnose autoimmune disorders. What does a positive result mean? A positive result may indicate antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) or an increased risk of blood clots. Do I need to fast before the test? The test usually does not require fasting, but it is recommended to consult your doctor. Can the result be temporarily positive? Yes, it can be temporarily positive after an infection or certain medications. How does this test affect my treatment plan? If positive, the doctor may recommend medications to reduce the risk of blood clots or closely monitor pregnancy. Is this test performed alone or with other tests? It is usually performed alongside other tests to assess blood clotting or autoimmune disorders.

Negative (Normal) Result Indicates absence or low levels of anticardiolipin antibodies. The normal range is usually less than 15 units per milliliter (U/mL). Low Positive Result May range between 15-20 U/mL and may not indicate a significant risk of blood clots. Moderate to High Positive Result Usually greater than 20 U/mL, indicating an increased risk of blood clots or antiphospholipid syndrome (APS).
