Description

An ADA (adenosine deaminase) blood test measures the amount of the enzyme adenosine deaminase in the body, most commonly in blood serum, but also in other bodily fluids like pleural fluid or cerebrospinal fluid. It is used to help diagnose conditions associated with immune system activation, such as tuberculosis, and also other autoimmune diseases, cancers, or immunodeficiencies. What the test is for Tuberculosis (TB): The most common use is to help diagnose TB, especially when it affects the pleura (lining of the lungs), by measuring ADA levels in pleural fluid. High ADA levels indicate an increased immune response to the bacteria. Other conditions: High ADA levels can also point to other diseases involving the immune system, such as certain types of cancer or autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis. Immunodeficiency: Low ADA levels can indicate a weakened immune response, which is characteristic of certain primary immunodeficiency disorders. How the test is performed For a serum (blood) test: A blood sample is drawn from a vein in your arm, similar to a routine blood draw. For other body fluids: A doctor will collect the sample, for example: Pleural fluid: A procedure called thoracentesis is used to drain fluid from the space between the lungs and chest wall. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF): A spinal tap is performed to collect fluid around the spinal cord. Preparation and what to expect Preparation: There is no special preparation needed for a serum ADA blood test, but your doctor will provide instructions if a different fluid sample is required. Results: The test is usually performed on the collected sample. Your doctor will discuss the results with you and how they relate to your symptoms.
