TRANSFERRIN SATURATION INDEX (TSI-A)

The TRANSFERRIN SATURATION INDEX (TSI-A) measures the percentage of transferrin that is bound to iron—calculated from serum iron and total iron‑binding capacity (TIBC)—and provides a direct indicator of iron availability for red blood cell production, helping to distinguish iron deficiency from iron overload. It is commonly used to evaluate unexplained fatigue or anemia, to monitor response to oral or IV iron therapy, and to guide nutritional or medical interventions; testing is suitable for adults and children when ordered by a physician and can be performed at home in Dubai by a trained phlebotomist via Touch Connect. A venous blood sample is required (fasting not usually mandatory), results may vary between laboratories, and patients should review findings with their healthcare provider before changing treatment; pricing and home‑collection options are available in AED on the platform.
