1. Why is fasting required before a Cholesterol Test?
Fasting helps obtain accurate measurements of cholesterol and triglyceride levels.
2. DENGUE NS1
A positive result indicates the presence of Dengue virus NS1 antigen, suggesting acute Dengue infection.
No, the Dengue NS1 test specifically detects Dengue virus NS1 antigen and is not useful for diagnosing other viral infections.
No, the Dengue NS1 test does not differentiate between different Dengue virus serotypes. Additional tests may be required for serotype identification.
The Dengue NS1 test can detect infection within the first 1 to 7 days of symptom onset, when NS1 antigen levels are typically high.
Consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation, as additional tests or clinical assessment may be necessary.
3. UPT
A Urine Pregnancy Test (UPT) detects the presence of the hormone hCG in a woman’s urine to confirm pregnancy.
You can take a UPT if you have missed your period or are experiencing early pregnancy symptoms.
The UPT is highly accurate when performed correctly and can detect pregnancy within a few days of a missed period.
The test involves collecting a urine sample and using a test strip or device to detect hCG levels.
If your UPT result is positive, contact your healthcare provider to discuss the next steps and begin prenatal care.
