Description

TORCH test is a medical screening to detect infections in pregnant women that can be passed to a fetus. The acronym stands for Toxoplasmosis, Other infections (like syphilis and HIV), Rubella, Cytomegalovirus (CMV), and Herpes simplex virus. This blood test helps identify potential complications for the newborn by checking for antibodies, indicating past or recent infections. What the test involves A blood sample is collected from a vein in your arm. The sample is sent to a lab for testing, typically including both IgG and IgM antibodies. What the results mean IgM antibodies: Indicate a recent or current infection. IgG antibodies: Suggest a past infection that has already been overcome, with no active disease. Both IgM and IgG: May indicate a recent, ongoing infection. Neither IgM nor IgG: Means no recent or past infection was detected. Why it is performed To identify infections that can cause serious complications for the baby, such as developmental problems, cataracts, or deafness. To guide treatment and management during pregnancy. To investigate the cause of miscarriage or other complications. To screen newborns who show symptoms of a TORCH infection. Important to know Early detection and treatment can help prevent complications for both the mother and the baby. The specific "TORCH" infections screened for can vary between lab panels, but typically include toxoplasmosis, rubella, CMV, and herpes. Some panels include "other" infections like syphilis, HIV, or parvovirus, so it's good to confirm the specific tests included.
