The FTA-ABS (Fluorescent Treponemal Antibody Absorbed) or TPHA (Syphilis Hemagglutination Test) test is a blood test that looks for the presence of specific antibodies against Treponema pallidum, the bacteria that causes syphilis.
During sampling, a quantity of blood is drawn from the patient, usually from the arm, using a sterile needle and a specialized tube to collect the sample. This sample is sent to a clinical laboratory for analysis.
The FTA-ABS or TPHA test is performed to:
Detect the presence of antibodies against Treponema pallidum: These antibodies are produced as a response by the immune system to syphilis infection.
Confirm the diagnosis of syphilis: It is used as a complementary test to confirm or rule out a diagnosis of syphilis, especially if other initial tests, such as rapid antibody detection tests or non-treponemal tests (VDRL or RPR), have been positive.
It is essential to note that this test can detect antibodies produced by a past or current syphilis infection, so additional clinical interpretation is needed to determine the relevance of the results in the context of the patient's medical history and other diagnostic tests.
Overall, the FTA-ABS or TPHA test is an important tool for the diagnosis and monitoring of syphilis, providing valuable information for the treatment and follow-up of this sexually transmitted infection.
