Aiding in the diagnosis of recent infection with Chikungunya virus in patients with recent travel to endemic areas and a compatible clinical syndrome
This test may be used as an aid to diagnose recent or past infection with Chikungunya virus (ChikV) in patients with recent travel to endemic regions and a compatible clinical syndrome.
IgM and IgG antibodies to ChikV are typically detectable 3 to 4 days and 6 to 7 days following onset of symptoms, respectively.
IgM antibodies to ChikV typically remain detectable for 3 to 4 months after infection, whereas IgG antibodies to ChikV remain detectable for years.
