- Blood test for analyzing lead in blood.
- The analysis is for lead (P-Lead).
- Measures the concentration of lead in the blood.
- For suspected lead poisoning.
The P-Lead test analyzes lead concentration in the blood and is used to assess lead exposure. It is especially important for detecting elevated lead levels that can lead to serious health issues with prolonged exposure. Lead occurs naturally but can also come from contaminated drinking water, older lead-glazed ceramics, and certain work environments. High lead levels are linked to effects on the nervous system, kidneys, and blood formation, particularly in children, where development can be affected.
The P-Lead test is used in various clinical contexts where assessing lead exposure is essential. Common situations where the test is recommended include:
Analysis of P-Lead is recommended if there is suspected exposure from contaminated drinking water, food, workplace environments, or other sources. The test is especially relevant for individuals in high-risk occupations and those living in areas at risk. It is based on a venous blood sample and provides reliable results for detecting lead poisoning or elevated exposure levels.
Normal blood lead levels (P-Lead) are typically below 0.2 µmol/L in individuals without known exposure. Levels above 1.5 µmol/L in adults in high-risk occupations and 0.5 µmol/L for women under 50 should be followed up. High values warrant further investigation to identify sources of exposure and health risks.
A normal lead level is below 0.2 µmol/L. Elevated levels may indicate exposure from sources such as contaminated water, certain foods, or specific occupations. When levels are elevated, sources of exposure should be investigated, and measures taken to reduce lead exposure.
