When is the Anti HBs Test Prescribed?

An anti-HBs test is crucial in determining immunity to Hepatitis B. Your doctor might recommend this anti-HBs blood test under various circumstances:

Before Surgery or Other Invasive Medical Procedures - Undergoing surgery or other invasive medical procedures exposes you to potential blood-borne infections. An anti-HBs test is often required to assess your immunity to Hepatitis B. A positive anti-HBs test result indicates protection, while a negative result might necessitate vaccination before the procedure.
During Pregnancy - Hepatitis B can be transmitted from mother to child during pregnancy. An anti-HBs test is essential for pregnant women to determine their immunity status. If the mother is not immune, preventive measures can be taken to protect the newborn.
If You've Been Exposed to Hepatitis B - If you've had unprotected sexual contact with an infected individual, shared needles or syringes, or come into contact with the blood of an infected person, you're at risk of Hepatitis B infection. An anti-HBs antibody test can determine if you've developed immunity. If not, vaccination might be recommended.
For Individuals at High Risk of Hepatitis B Infection - Certain groups of people are at a higher risk of contracting Hepatitis B. These include healthcare workers, people with multiple sexual partners, individuals who inject drugs, and those living with chronic liver diseases. Regular anti-HBs lab test is crucial to monitor immunity status and prevent infection.
As Part of a Routine Checkup - Incorporating an anti-HBs test online into your regular checkup can provide valuable information about your health. It helps identify individuals who might benefit from vaccination or further evaluation.

Note: The cost of an anti-HBs test can vary depending on the healthcare provider and location. You can often book an anti-HBs test online for convenience.

Understanding anti-HBs positive meaning and reasons is crucial in preventing the spread of Hepatitis B. A timely test can provide peace of mind and necessary preventive measures.

Time Required for Anti HBs Test Report + Next Steps

The time required for an anti-HBs lab test to produce results can vary depending on the laboratory. Typically, it takes a few days.

Once you receive your anti-HBs blood report, your doctor will interpret the results and discuss the next steps. If the test is positive, it indicates immunity to Hepatitis B. A negative result might prompt vaccination or further testing.

Note: To find out the exact cost of an anti-HBs antibody test, it's best to contact your nearest Max Lab diagnostics centre.
