It measures the current blood glucose level at any time of the day.

No, fasting is not required for this test.

Results are usually available within a few hours, allowing for prompt medical assessment.

It helps diagnose diabetes, monitor glucose control, and assess emergency situations related to blood sugar levels.

Dengue fever is a mosquito-borne viral infection causing flu-like symptoms, and in severe cases, it can lead to dengue hemorrhagic fever or dengue shock syndrome.

Anyone experiencing symptoms of dengue fever, particularly within the first few days of illness, should consider this test for early diagnosis.

Yes, the Dengue NS1 Antigen Test is highly accurate in detecting early dengue infection, especially within the first five days of symptom onset.

The test involves a blood draw, which is then analyzed in a laboratory to detect the NS1 antigen.

A positive result indicates a dengue infection. Your healthcare provider will discuss treatment options and may recommend further testing or monitoring.

CRRT is a medical therapy used in intensive care units to manage patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) or severe kidney dysfunction. It involves the continuous removal of waste products and excess fluids from the blood.

CRRT is used when a patient’s kidneys are unable to adequately filter waste and excess fluids from the blood, leading to dangerous levels of toxins and fluid overload.

CRRT differs from hemodialysis in that it is slower and performed continuously over 24 hours or longer periods. Hemodialysis, on the other hand, is intermittent and typically lasts for a few hours.

Yes, CRRT can be used cautiously in patients with heart failure to manage fluid overload and electrolyte imbalances, with careful monitoring of hemodynamic status.

CRRT provides gentler and more gradual fluid and solute removal, making it suitable for hemodynamically unstable patients who cannot tolerate the rapid changes associated with conventional hemodialysis.
