Annak meghatározására, hogy az olyan tünetek, mint például a végtagok hidegre való érzékenysége, annak tulajdonítható-e, hogy krioglobulinok vannak jelen a vérben. Ezek kóros fehérjék, amelyek különböző betegségekhez társulhatnak.
Amikor olyan tünetek jelentkeznek, mint pl. a hideg hőmérsékleten jelentkező bőrkiütés, véraláfutás, fájdalom, gyengeség, ízületi fájdalom, és/vagy a végtagok elfehéredése és hűvössége.
A kar könyökhajlati vénájába szúrt tűn keresztül veszik a vért egy előmelegített csőbe. A minta előkészítése során a csövet testhőmérsékleten vagy annak közelében kell tartani.
Általában nincs szükség külön előkészületre, legfeljebb megkérhetik Önt, hogy éhgyomrral érkezzen a vérvételre.
