Your hemoglobin C screen is negative. Hemoglobin C is not present.
No hemoglobin C was detected. This rules out both HbC trait and HbC disease.
No action needed.
HbC: not detected — normalYour sample tested negative for hemoglobin C.
No action needed.
HbC: not detectedYour hemoglobin C screen is negative. Hemoglobin C is not present.
No action needed. Reassuring result.
HbC: {{value}}% — negative (no hemoglobin C detected)Hemoglobin C is not present. This is the optimal finding with no HbC trait or disease.
No action needed.
HbC: {{value}}% — negativeA very small amount of hemoglobin C may be present, or this may be a technical artifact. If confirmed, this would indicate HbC trait (HbAC).
Repeat testing or confirmatory hemoglobin electrophoresis is recommended.
HbC: {{value}}% — trace detected, may be artifactHemoglobin C has been detected. If HbC is <50% with HbA present, this indicates HbC trait (HbAC), a benign carrier state. If HbC is predominant, this indicates HbC disease (HbCC), which can cause mild hemolytic anemia.
See your doctor for diagnosis and genetic counseling. HbC trait is benign. HbC disease is mild but warrants monitoring.
HbC: {{value}}% — detected (positive)Hemoglobin C is the predominant hemoglobin type, consistent with homozygous hemoglobin C disease (HbCC). This causes a mild to moderate hemolytic anemia with target cells on blood smear.
Seek hematology consultation. Hemoglobin C disease is generally mild but requires monitoring for complications like gallstones and splenomegaly.
