Human Herpes Virus-6, IgM Test

This test assists in the diagnosis of acute infection with roseola infantum in children; may be useful in diagnosis of chronic fatigue syndrome in adults. During the acute episode an elevated IgM HHV-6 is useful and consistent with a recent HHV-6 infection.

Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) has recently been identified as the agent associated with both pediatric and adult infections. Most children have been infected by age three years of age. The acute infection in children is characterized clinically by an acute febrile illness, irritability, inflammation of tympanic membranes, and (uncommonly) a rash characteristic of roseola.

In adults, HHV-6 has been associated with chronic fatigue and spontaneously resolving fever resembling a mononucleosis-like illness.
