. The Grass Allergy Screening test is designed to identify potential allergic sensitizations to common grass allergens, including Cultivated Rye Grass, Perennial Rye Grass, Sweet Vernal Grass, Timothy Grass, and Velvet Grass.
. By measuring the levels of allergen-specific IgE antibodies in the blood, this test helps detect an immune response that may be associated with grass allergies.
. It is particularly useful for patients experiencing symptoms such as seasonal allergic rhinitis (hay fever), nasal congestion, itchy or watery eyes, or respiratory discomfort that could be triggered by grass pollen.
. The results provide valuable insights for healthcare providers to guide diagnosis, allergen avoidance strategies, and treatment plans, ensuring better management of allergy symptoms.
. This test should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosing allergies; it must be interpreted alongside the patient's clinical symptoms and medical history.
