| M spike/band | If present | May suggest monoclonal protein requiring follow-up. |
| Pattern value | Inflammation or protein loss patterns | Interpret with total protein and albumin. |
| Reason | Description |
|---|---|
| Protein pattern review | Separates blood proteins into fractions. |
| Myeloma/monoclonal workup | Used when abnormal protein band is suspected. |
| Inflammation context | Can show broad gamma or acute phase patterns. |
| Situation | Description |
|---|---|
| Symptoms | Bone pain, anaemia, kidney issues, recurrent infections, high protein. |
| Risk context | Abnormal globulin, A/G ratio or unexplained high ESR. |
| Follow-up users | People with suspected monoclonal gammopathy. |
| Topic | Guidance |
