ANA (Anti Nuclear Antibodies) ELISA
A positive ANA screen result means antinuclear antibodies are in your child's blood. This may mean your child has an autoimmune disease, such as lupus. But elevated ANA in your child's blood doesn't mean your child has an autoimmune disorder. Many healthy people have ANAs in their blood.
.
ANA test results are most often reported in 2 parts: the level or titer and the pattern. Titres are reported in ratios, most often 1:40, 1:80, 1:160, 1:320, and 1:640.

The presence of antinuclear antibodies is a positive test result. But having a positive result doesn't mean you have a disease. Many people with no disease have positive ANA tests — particularly women older than 65.
