Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV)

Sexually transmitted diseases hospitals have clinically proven that herpessimplex virus (HSV) can cause various diseases in humans, such as gingivostomatitis, keratoconjunctivitis, encephalitis, and infections of the reproductive system and neonatal infections. After infection of the host, latent infections are often established in the nerve cells, and asymptomatic detoxification occurs after activation, and the transmission chain is maintained in the population, and the cycle is repeated. Herpes simplex virus (HSV) can cause a variety of diseases, and HSV-DNA can be used to determine HSV infection early. Determination of HSV is often performed by ELISA, neutralizing antibody method, and passive hemagglutination antibody method. Basic Information Specialist classification: Infectious disease examination and classification: blood examination Applicable gender: whether men and women apply fasting: fasting Analysis results: Below normal: Normal value: no Above normal: negative: Negative is a normal result. Positive: Positive is an abnormal result, indicating infection with herpes simplex virus HSV-M. Tips: Do not eat too greasy, high-protein foods the day before the blood draw, avoid heavy drinking. After 8 pm on the day before the medical examination, you should start fasting for 12 hours. Normal value The ELISA method, the neutralizing antibody method, and the passive hemagglutination antibody method were negative, and were recorded as (-). Clinical significance Positive, seen in the following diseases: (1) Primary infection type: 1 recessive infection >90%. 2 dominant infection <10% A. cold sores, acute gingivitis, stomatitis; B. rhinitis, pharyngitis, tonsillitis, bronchitis, pneumonia, neuralgia; C. herpetic spasm; D. traumatic herpes; E. herpetic keratoconjunctivitis; F. herpetic esophagitis, hepatitis; G. sexual organ herpes; H. encephalitis, myelitis, neuritis; I. neonatal herpes; J. abortion, stillbirth, malformed fetus. (2) Recurrent infection type: Skin mucosal lesions such as 1 cold sore; 2 herpetic keratitis; 3 herpes simplex; 4 central nervous system diseases such as encephalitis. (3) Reinfection type. Positive results may be diseases: herpes simplex, herpes, neonatal herpes simplex virus infection precautions First, the precautions before blood draw: 1, do not eat too greasy, high-protein food the day before the blood, to avoid heavy drinking. The alcohol content in the blood directly affects the test results. 2. After 8 pm on the day before the medical examination, you should start fasting for 12 hours to avoid affecting the test results. 3, should relax when taking blood, to avoid the contraction of blood vessels caused by fear, increase the difficulty of blood collection. Second, after blood draw should pay attention to: 1. After blood is drawn, local compression is required at the pinhole for 3-5 minutes to stop bleeding. Note: Do not rub, so as not to cause subcutaneous hematoma. 2, the pressing time should be sufficient. There is a difference in clotting time for each person, and some people need a little longer to clotting. Therefore, when the surface of the skin appears to be bleeding, the compression is stopped immediately, and the blood may be infiltrated into the skin due to incomplete hemostasis. Therefore, the compression time is longer to completely stop bleeding. If there is a tendency to bleed, the compression time should be extended. 3, after the blood draw symptoms of fainting such as: dizziness, vertigo, fatigue, etc. should immediately lie down, drink a small amount of syrup, and then undergo a physical examination after the symptoms are relieved. 4. If there is localized congestion, use a warm towel after 24 hours to promote absorption. 3. Please inform the doctor about the recent medication and special physiological changes before the test. Inspection process The blood samples of the subjects were taken and detected by chemical methods. Not suitable for the crowd Taboo people: No. Adverse reactions and risks Generally no special complications.
