What is a CD55 (PNH Marker) Test in Mysuru ?
What is CD55 (PNH Marker)?
The CD55 (PNH Marker) test measures the amount of CD55 protein on red blood cells. CD55 helps protect blood cells from the body's complement system, which can destroy cells if unchecked. Physical examination provides clues; a test result removes ambiguity and allows targeted, evidence-based management to begin promptly.
What does CD55 (PNH Marker) measure?
Low or absent CD55 is a hallmark of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH). Detecting reduced CD55 helps explain unexplained anemia, dark urine, and unusual blood clots. Doctors use this test with other markers, like CD59, usually by flow cytometry. It helps confirm a PNH diagnosis, estimate the size of the affected cell population, and monitor response to treatments that block complement activity.
What symptoms suggest CD55 (PNH Marker) may be needed?
CD55 (PNH Marker) is ordered when your doctor needs objective laboratory data, either to follow up a symptom, check a previous result, or complete a routine assessment. Your doctor will advise whether it is the right test for your situation. If you have these symptoms, You can book online for Mysuru, and check home-collection availability for Hebbal, Metagalli or your own address during booking.
How is CD55 (PNH Marker) performed?
You provide a urine sample rather than blood. Follow the container instructions for a clean mid-stream catch, avoid contamination from soap or toilet water, and submit it within two hours of collection at a lab in Hebbal or via home pickup in Metagalli, Mysuru. GetVisit handles labelling and NABL lab dispatch.

A family history of unexplained hemolysis or blood disorders may prompt testing.
