Understanding Angelman Syndrome: Your Path to Answers
When your child shows signs of developmental delays or unusual movements, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. As parents in South Africa, you deserve clear answers and compassionate care. The Angelman Syndrome Genetic Test provides the definitive diagnosis you need to move forward with confidence and create the best possible care plan for your child.
What Does This Test Detect?
Our advanced methylation-specific PCR test specifically identifies the genetic abnormalities that cause Angelman Syndrome. This condition affects the UBE3A gene on chromosome 15, leading to the characteristic symptoms that may be affecting your child’s development and quality of life.
Who Should Consider This Test?
This test is essential for families noticing:
- Significant developmental delays in walking, talking, or motor skills
- Unusual happy demeanor with frequent laughter and smiling
- Movement or balance disorders including ataxia
- Speech impairments or absence of speech
- Seizures or epilepsy symptoms
- Sleep disturbances and feeding difficulties
Why Early Detection Matters for Your Child’s Future
Getting an accurate diagnosis transforms uncertainty into action. With a confirmed Angelman Syndrome diagnosis, you can:
- Access targeted therapies and interventions sooner
