Many people have intestinal inflammation without knowing it because the symptoms are often nonspecific. Possible symptoms of inflammatory bowel disease include fatigue, deficiency symptoms, diarrhea, abdominal pain, weight loss, joint and muscle pain, nausea and vomiting, painful bowel movements, and mild fever. What does the test measure? Measuring the concentration of calprotectin in stool provides rapid and reliable information about the presence of inflammation in the intestinal tract. In addition, the markers lysozyme and sIgA provide information about the immune function of the intestinal mucosa. Alpha-1-antitrypsin is a marker of increased intestinal mucosal permeability. These markers of inflammation status and the immune system are used to rapidly and reliably detect early stages of inflammatory bowel disease and then guide patients toward efficient follow-up diagnostics and treatment. A simple stool sample is sufficient to determine all parameters. How does the test work? After ordering, a test kit will be delivered to you. Collect the samples conveniently at home and then return them to the Verisana laboratory. After analysis, your measurement results will be sent to you. The test kit includes: a sample collection test kit, laboratory testing, and a laboratory report.
