IGF-1 (Somatomedin C) (Serum (s))

Testcode:	E_IGF1
Specimens:	500 µl Serum (s)
Preanalytics/Notes:	Patients receiving high doses of Biotin (> 5 mg/day) should be sampled at least 24 hours after the last aplication, as high levels of the Biotin may interfere with the insulin-and c-peptide-test systems. Stability (-20°C): 28 days
Method:	ECLIA
Dimension:	ng/ml
Set-up:	Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat Sun
Duration:	1 day
Indication/Significance:	Diagnostic assessment of HGH deficiency in childhood Diagnostic assessment of acromegaly Assessment of the effectiveness of exogenous HGH
Interpretation:	IGF-1 reaches its more… IGF-1 reaches its physiological maximum growth during puberty. In adulthood the levels are constant, at an older age the IGF-1 concentrations drop. Women tend to have higher concentrations. Elevated values: Acromegaly, pituitary gigantism Adiposity Pregnancy: especially in the last trimenon Decreased values: Decreased IGF-1 levels in the case of hyposomia are indicative of an HGH deficiency Laron dwarfism, genetically determined HGH receptor defect Ineffective HGH molecule Nutritional disorders, malabsorption, poorly controlled diabetes mellitus, chronic inflammatory diseases Should IGF-1 and/or IGFBP-3 deviate downwards from the mean value by more than one standard deviation with regard to the diagnostic assessment of growth disorders in children and adolescents, a growth hormone stimulation test is recommended in compliance with the current guidelines for the further assessment, if the clinical criteria for the growth hormone deficiency mentioned in the guidelines are also fulfilled. According to the guideline, the following are recommended as stimulation test alternatives: Arginine, clonidine, glucagon and insulin tolerance test close
Further tests:	Carry out growth hormone stimulation tests according to the guideline.
