littledebbie Posted July 25, 2013 Report Posted July 25, 2013 can anyone tell me if a strep pneumonia antibody serotypes lab order is the same as a strep titer test?
nicklemama Posted July 26, 2013 Report Posted July 26, 2013 It is not. The strep pneumonia serotypes is testing to see if your child has mounted a response to the HIB vaccines given. Basically its seeing if your child's immune system is working. The tests for strep infection is ASO (antistreptolysin O) and antiDNase B.
loandmo Posted July 28, 2013 Report Posted July 28, 2013 what should I ask for when my child goes for his blood work? I just want to be prepared...
