What is Lactate Dehydrogenase or LDH test

Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), also called lactic acid dehydrogenase, is measured in your blood or other body fluids in this test. LDH is involved in the production of energy in your body. It can be found in practically every tissue in the body, including the blood, heart, kidneys, brain, and lungs.

LDH is released into the circulation or other body fluids when these tissues are injured. If the LDH plasma or fluid levels are elevated, it could indicate that disease or injury has damaged certain body tissue. When your cells are damaged by sickness or injury, LDH is released into the bloodstream, causing your blood LDH level to rise.

Why do I need an LDH Blood Test?

If previous tests and/or your symptoms indicate tissue damage or disease, you may need this test. Depending on the sort of tissue damage you have, your symptoms will differ.

If you are currently undergoing cancer treatment, an LDH test may be required.

What do the results of an LDH Blood Test signify

LDH levels differ depending on age and the laboratory. Normal LDH levels are substantially greater in infants and early children than in older children or adults. LDH levels are frequently expressed in units per liter (U/L).

LDH levels that are higher than normal frequently indicate tissue injury or disease. High LDH levels are caused by Anemia, Kidney problems, Liver function disorders, Muscle damage, Pancreatitis, Meningitis, encephalitis, and infectious mononucleosis are examples of infections (mono) and Lymphoma and leukemia are two examples of cancers.

A higher-than-normal LDH level could indicate that cancer treatment isn't working.

Although the test can detect tissue damage or disease, it cannot pinpoint the exact location of the harm. If your LDH levels were greater than usual, your doctor may need to request more tests to make a diagnosis. An LDH isoenzyme test could be one of these assays. The multiple types of LDH are measured in an LDH isoenzyme test.
