What is a CD55 (PNH Marker) Test in Mumbai ?
What is CD55 (PNH Marker)?
The CD55 (PNH Marker) test measures the amount of CD55 protein on red blood cells. CD55 helps protect blood cells from the body's complement system, which can destroy cells if unchecked. Physical examination provides clues; a test result removes ambiguity and allows targeted, evidence-based management to begin promptly.
What does CD55 (PNH Marker) measure?
Low or absent CD55 is a hallmark of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH). Detecting reduced CD55 helps explain unexplained anemia, dark urine, and unusual blood clots. Doctors use this test with other markers, like CD59, usually by flow cytometry. It helps confirm a PNH diagnosis, estimate the size of the affected cell population, and monitor response to treatments that block complement activity.
What symptoms suggest CD55 (PNH Marker) may be needed?
A doctor may recommend CD55 (PNH Marker) when a patient reports any symptom your doctor has identified as requiring objective laboratory investigation , including unexplained fatigue, unexplained weight change, persistent pain, fever, or abnormal bleeding. GetVisit makes testing convenient in Mumbai, with lab slots and home collection in Kandivali, Santacruz, and nearby areas.
How is CD55 (PNH Marker) performed?
No needle is involved. For home service in Kandivali or Santacruz, Mumbai, GetVisit delivers a sterile container, you provide a clean mid-stream urine sample, and a certified agent collects and transports it to the NABL lab under proper conditions. Your report appears in the GetVisit app when results are authorised.
How accurate is CD55 (PNH Marker)?
Urine results are reliable when the sample is collected cleanly and transported quickly. GetVisit's Mumbai network handles prompt, temperature-appropriate transport from Kandivali or Santacruz to the NABL lab, and quality control is independently audited by NABL.
Are there any risks to CD55 (PNH Marker)?
There is no medical risk. Providing a urine sample is completely non-invasive, with no needle and no discomfort. The only thing to get right is a clean collection: follow the container instructions to avoid contamination that could affect the result. Home collection in Kandivali or Santacruz, Mumbai is just as safe as visiting a lab.
Did you know?
CD59 is a GPI‑anchored complement regulatory protein on blood cell membranes that prevents formation of the membrane attack complex (C5b–C9).
CD55 (PNH Marker) Test Preparation in Mumbai
Fasting instructions:
Collect a clean-catch mid-stream sample in the container provided, ideally the first urine of the morning, and hand it in promptly for the most reliable result.
What to bring along:
Bring your doctor's prescription, a valid photo ID, and your insurance card if you're using cashless OPD. Loose sleeves make collection easier.
Managing medication:
There's usually no need to stop your regular medication; just let the staff know what you take.
Timing:
Book whenever is convenient; for fasting or hormone tests an early-morning slot is ideal. GetVisit covers Goregaon, Andheri, and all of Mumbai.

Why Take a CD55 (PNH Marker) Test in Mumbai ?
When does a doctor order CD55 (PNH Marker)?
CD55 (PNH Marker) is usually ordered as part of a hemolysis or PNH flow cytometry panel that also checks CD59 and other markers. Doctors may request it for unexplained anemia, dark or cola-colored urine, or unusual blood clots.
Who should get CD55 (PNH Marker) done in Mumbai?
Mumbai's 21 million metropolitan population, annual monsoon flooding creating severe leptospirosis and dengue risk in Kurla, Andheri, and Ghatkopar, high corporate stress and commute burden, significant diabetes and cardiovascular disease prevalence, and a massive working population with irregular meal and sleep patterns make regular preventive diagnostic testing an essential health investment for all residents. Adults above 30 in Mumbai benefit from periodic health screening that includes CD55 (PNH Marker) as part of a broader preventive panel. Residents of Thane, Kandivali, and across the city with chronic conditions, those on long-term medication, and individuals with a relevant family history should test at the frequency their specialist recommends.
What conditions can CD55 (PNH Marker) help diagnose?
It helps diagnose and monitor paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria and related bone marrow disorders. Abnormal results come from loss of GPI-anchored proteins on blood cells due to acquired mutations and from disease activity; certain blood disorders or treatments can affect results. A family history of unexplained hemolysis or blood disorders may prompt testing.
What do CD55 (PNH Marker) results mean?
Your result is read against the reference range printed on your GetVisit report for your age and sex, and always alongside your symptoms and history. A single value slightly outside the range does not by itself confirm a problem, your doctor decides whether it is significant. The specific high and low patterns for this test are explained in the FAQs below.
How often should CD55 (PNH Marker) be repeated?
For preventive screening with a normal baseline: annually for most adults above 35. For monitoring a known condition: at the interval your specialist recommends , typically every 3 to 6 months for active conditions and annually for stable, well-controlled ones.
What happens after CD55 (PNH Marker) results are ready?
Once your results appear in your GetVisit profile, discuss them with your doctor or a GetVisit-verified specialist. Your doctor will interpret each value in the context of your full health history, current medications, and symptoms, and advise on the next step: lifestyle change, repeat testing, medication adjustment, or specialist referral. All GetVisit reports are stored permanently and can be shared with any doctor instantly.
