Accuracy of PoCT to ELISA by Detecting Human IL-6 in Teeth with Apical Periodontitis (PoCT ELISA)

November 20, 2024 updated by: Dr. Anchu Rachel Thomas, Manipal University College Malaysia

Diagnostic Agreement of Human Interleukin-6 Chairside Point-of-Care Test (PoCT) to Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) in Teeth with Apical Periodontitis

To compare the diagnostic agreement of human IL-6 chairside PoCT to ELISA in apical periodontitis undergoing endodontic therapy which could be clinically helpful to monitor the healing of periapical tissues enabling the clinician to complete the endodontic procedure, leading to a better patient care.

This study will be conducted at the Conservative and Endodontics Department in Polyclinic B, Faculty of Dentistry, Manipal University College Malaysia (MUCM). It involves 30 selected patients who have single rooted tooth with apical periodontitis that undergo RCT. The collection of the exudate from the canal will be on pre and post-instrumentation. The exudated will collect twice in each instrumentation for PoCT and ELISA.
