1. 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.
2. Holter Monitor
A Holter monitor is a portable device used to continuously record the electrical activity of the heart over 24 to 48 hours, capturing data during daily activities.
A Holter monitor helps detect and diagnose irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmias) that may not be captured during a standard ECG.
The monitor is attached to the patient with electrodes placed on the chest. It records heartbeats continuously while the patient carries out normal activities.
Patients experiencing symptoms such as palpitations, dizziness, fainting, or irregular heartbeats may require Holter monitoring to assess their heart’s electrical activity over an extended period.
Holter monitoring typically lasts 24 to 48 hours, depending on the doctor’s recommendation and the specific monitoring objectives.
3. 2D ECHO
The 2D ECHO Test provides detailed images of the heart’s structure and function, helping diagnose and manage heart conditions.
No special fasting is required. You can eat and drink normally before the test.
The test typically takes between 30 to 60 minutes. Preliminary results may be available immediately, with a detailed report ready within a day.
You will lie on an examination table while a technician uses a transducer to capture images of your heart. The procedure is non-invasive and painless.
Results are usually available within a day. A preliminary interpretation may be provided immediately, with a detailed report typically ready within a few hours.
