Parainfluenza Test | ACCU Reference Medical Lab

2015-05-10 06:00:00


If you or a loved one is suffering from the flu, upper or lower respiratory infections it can be very helpful to figure out what the cause actually is. Our parainfluenza test can identify which virus is causing your illness so that you can take the necessary steps to get better. Whether this test has been recommended by your doctor already, or you are just looking to get the information so that you can bring it with you to a doctor’s appointment, we are here to help. Our parainfluenza virus test is offered right here in our medical labs, located in Linden, NJ. The test has been confirmed to be the most sensitive respiratory viral panel test available based on an independent study that looked at 300 specimens (Popowitch, JClinMicroBiol 2013). When you come in for this test we will get it completed quickly and painlessly and then provide you with the results as soon as possible.

Part of a Full Virus Panel

The parainfluenza test is a part of our respiratory virus panel that can help identify a wide range of different viruses that you may have. Whether you actually have the parainfluenza virus or you are actually suffering from something else, this is an excellent test to confirm the root cause of your flu symptoms. When you have this test performed we will look for the following viruses:

  • Adenovirus B/E
  • Adenovirus C
  • Human Metapneumovirus (HMPV)
  • Human Rhinovirus (HRV)
  • Influenza A
  • Influenza A 2009 H1N1 *AKA Swine Flu
  • Influenza A H1
  • Influenza A H3
  • Influenza B
  • Parainfluenza Virus (PIV) 1
  • Parainfluenza Virus (PIV) 2
  • Parainfluenza Virus (PIV) 3
  • Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) A
  • Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) B

In many cases we have found that patients actually have multiple viruses at once. This is often why people have a more serious than normal flu or illness. Without this test, however, you would not know that this is the problem. Of course, once you know which viruses you have you can work with your doctor to come up with a targeted treatment plan to help you get better as quickly as possible.

Get Your Test Soon

If you or a loved one is sick it is important to get the parainfluenza test completed as soon as possible so that your body remains strong and able to effectively fight the virus. This is especially important if you are already immunocompromised due to age or other medical conditions. You can contact our Linden, NJ laboratory to schedule an appointment to have this test performed as soon as possible. The test does not take very long and we will work hard to keep you from having to wait any longer than normal so that you can get back home to recover. Once the results of your test is in, we’ll send it to you or your doctor so that you can get your virus-specific treatment plan started. This will get you on the road to recovery faster than would otherwise be possible.
