Test ID: BRGGP    
Brugada Syndrome Multi-Gene Panel, Blood

 Download Test

Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful

Providing a genetic evaluation for patients with a personal or family history suggestive of Brugada syndrome (BrS)

 

Establishing a diagnosis of a BrS, in some cases, allowing for appropriate management and surveillance for disease features based on the gene involved

 

Identifying variants within genes known to be associated with increased risk for disease features and allowing for predictive testing of at-risk family members

Genetics Test Information Provides information that may help with selection of the correct genetic test or proper submission of the test request

This test uses next generation sequencing to test for variants in the CACNA1C, CACNA2D1, GPD1L, KCNE3, KCNJ8, SCN3B, CACNB2, SCN1B, and SCN5A genes.

 

This test may aid in the diagnosis of Brugada syndrome.

 

Identification of a pathogenic variant may assist with prognosis, clinical management, familial screening, and genetic counseling.

 

Prior Authorization is available for this assay; see Special Instructions.
