Cobalt and Chromium Blood Test

Testing for Hip Implant, heavy metal exposure

+$4.00 per order service fee

Sample Report

Test Code: 738770

Specimen Type: Blood

Description:

Cobalt and Chromium Blood Test

This test measures Cobalt and Chromium levels in the blood. Cobalt and Chromium are elements which can contribute to good health in the proper amounts. Toxicity due to over exposure can lead to a variety of health concerns. These tests are designed to screen for exposure due to the materials in metal on metal (MoM) implants such as those used in hip replacements. Over time, the natural wear on these implants may release metallic particles into the body which can cause long term health problems.

Customers testing due to workplace exposure should order the individual Cobalt and Chromium blood tests.

Due to a delay at the lab, turnaround time for this test is currently up to 10 business days.

Cobalt and Chromium Blood Test

This test measures Cobalt and Chromium levels in the blood. Cobalt and Chromium are minerals which contribute to good health in the right amount. Overexposure, however, can cause health complications. Exposure typically occurs in industrial settings. Toxicity can cause a number of conditions including coughing, breathing problems, skin irritation, nerve damage, heart problems, kidney and liver damage, lung cancer and male reproductive issues

Testing is typically ordered when a person believes they have been exposed, especially if they work in environments where cobalt and/or chromium are present. Periodic testing is recommended for anyone who works around these elements even if they are not experiencing any symptoms.
