Venient Fx Inflammatory Response Comprehensive

The United States Preventative Services Task Force (USPSTF) does not include any recommendations for screening for inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.

However, Kience Inc. recommends the Venient Fx Inflammatory Response Comprehensive test for patients with symptoms, signs or suspicion of disease: rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren's disease, reactive arthritis, arthritis due to systemic lupus erythematosus and psoriasis, or infectious arthritis, among others.

The target population for the Venient Fx Inflammatory Response Comprehensive test are patients with symptoms, signs or suspected disease: rheumatoid arthritis, arthritis reactive to Sjögren's disease, arthritis due to systemic lupus erythematosus and psoriasis, or infectious arthritis, among others.

A 40-year-old female presented to the clinic for medical evaluation after a two year history of pain, edema and wrist redness. Her knees have morning stiffness and some mobility limitations.
