1. S.ELECTROLYTE
The test measures the levels of key electrolytes in the blood, including sodium, potassium, chloride, and bicarbonate, to assess fluid balance and overall health.
It provides crucial information about electrolyte levels, helping diagnose and manage conditions like dehydration, kidney disease, heart problems, and metabolic disorders.
Generally, fasting is not required. However, it’s important to inform your healthcare provider about any medications or supplements you’re taking, as these can affect the test results.
Results are typically available within a few hours to a day, allowing for prompt medical decision-making based on the electrolyte levels in your blood.
Abnormal levels can be caused by a variety of factors, including dehydration, kidney dysfunction, certain medications, and metabolic disorders. Your healthcare provider will interpret the results and provide guidance based on your specific condition.
2. PUS C/S
Pus samples are collected using sterile techniques and cultured to identify the specific microorganisms causing the infection.
Results typically take a few days to allow for culture growth and sensitivity testing. Rapid methods may provide preliminary results sooner.
A positive result indicates the presence of bacteria or fungi in the pus sample, helping to diagnose and treat localized infections effectively.
Yes, the test identifies the specific microorganism causing the infection and determines its susceptibility to antibiotics or antifungal medications.
Minimal risks include slight discomfort during sample collection and rarely, infection at the puncture site. Sterile techniques minimize these risks.
3. HBV DNA VIRAL LOAD
The HBV DNA Viral Load Test measures the amount of Hepatitis B virus DNA in the blood, indicating the level of viral replication and infection severity.
The test is used to confirm active Hepatitis B infection, assess disease severity, monitor treatment response, and guide treatment decisions.
No special preparation is needed. You can eat and drink normally. Inform your healthcare provider about any medications or recent health issues.
Results are usually available within 2 to 4 days after the test.
A high viral load indicates a higher quantity of Hepatitis B virus in the blood, suggesting more active infection and potentially greater disease severity.
