Know More about ANTI CYCLIC CITRULLINATED PEPTIDE;ANTI CCP
The Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide test (anti-CCP) is a blood test to look for certain antibodies associated with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). It allows your doctor to diagnose RA early (sometimes before symptoms appear) and determine how aggressive the disease could be. Early diagnosis is essential for starting treatment as soon as possible to reduce the risk of permanent joint damage.
Process
- A small blood sample is taken from a vein in your arm.
- The sample is sent to a laboratory to check for anti-CCP antibodies.
When to Get Tested
You likely should consider this test if you have symptoms such as joint pain, swelling, or stiffness that may be the start of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The test is often recommended for people with a family history of rheumatoid arthritis or other autoimmune diseases.
Sample Type
The sample for this test is a blood sample from the veins of your arm.
Test Preparation
No fasting or special preparation is necessary. It is just important that you inform your doctor about any medications or supplements you’re taking.
Understanding Your Results
A low level will normally indicate a low risk of RA, while moderate and high levels may correlate with having the disease, or severity of the disease. If the test is positive, your doctor may order further tests, or start treatment early to help avoid damage to the joints.
