Hemoglobin C. This type of hemoglobin does not carry oxygen well. Hemoglobin E. This type of hemoglobin is found in people of Southeast Asian descent.
Hemoglobin D. This type of hemoglobin is present in some sickle cell disorders. This can be used to diagnose certain types of anemia such as thalassemia. Check treatment for diseases that have abnormal types of hemoglobin in the blood. Help couples find out how likely they are to have a child with certain forms of anemia that can be passed from a parent to a child inherited.
How To Prepare Tell your doctor if you are getting iron therapy for iron deficiency anemia. How It Is Done The health professional drawing blood will: Wrap an elastic band around your upper arm to stop the flow of blood. This makes the veins below the band larger so it is easier to put a needle into the vein. Clean the needle site with alcohol.
Put the needle into the vein. More than one needle stick may be needed. Attach a tube to the needle to fill it with blood. Remove the band from your arm when enough blood is collected. Put a gauze pad or cotton ball over the needle site as the needle is removed. Put pressure on the site and then put on a bandage. How It Feels The blood sample is taken from a vein in your arm. Risks There is very little chance of a problem from having a blood sample taken from a vein.
You may get a small bruise at the site. You can lower the chance of bruising by keeping pressure on the site for several minutes. In rare cases, the vein may become swollen after the blood sample is taken. This problem is called phlebitis. A warm compress can be used several times a day to treat this.
Results A hemoglobin electrophoresis test is a blood test done to check the different types of hemoglobin in the blood.
Normal The normal values listed here—called a reference range—are just a guide. Hemoglobin electrophoresis footnote 2 Hemoglobin A1: A very low level of hemoglobin A and a high level of hemoglobin F may mean a more severe form of thalassemia.
High levels of hemoglobin F may be seen in a rare condition called hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin. Hemoglobin S in moderate amounts can mean that sickle cell trait is present. Hemoglobin S in high amounts means sickle cell disease. Iliotibial Band Friction Syndrome. Immunity and herd immunity. Inhibin B. Insomnia acute or chronic. Ionized Calcium. Iron profile.
