Viral Marker Profile

What is included (3 tests)

About the Viral Marker Profile

The viral marker profile screens for HIV, hepatitis B (HBsAg) and hepatitis C using rapid tests. These infections can be silent for years, so screening is advised before surgery, in pregnancy, for healthcare workers and when required by employers or institutions.

Symptoms and situations where this test helps

• Before surgery, dental treatment or dialysis
• Pregnancy planning, or early pregnancy
• Healthcare workers and people exposed to blood
• Pre-employment or visa checks where required

Understanding your results

Rapid tests are screening tests. A positive result needs confirmation with a laboratory test before a diagnosis is made. A negative result may need repetition after the window period if the exposure was recent. All results are confidential.

What your doctor may advise next

Your doctor will advise confirmatory tests, counselling and treatment if needed.
