2. Hospice care in Mumbai
Hospice care is a type of care designed to provide comfort and support to patients with terminal illnesses, focusing on quality of life rather than curative treatments.
Patients diagnosed with a terminal illness and a life expectancy of six months or less, as determined by a physician, are eligible for hospice care.
Hospice care services include pain and symptom management, emotional and spiritual support, assistance with daily activities, and support for family members.
While both hospice and palliative care focus on comfort and quality of life, hospice care is specifically for patients nearing the end of life, whereas palliative care can be provided at any stage of a serious illness.
The hospice care team typically includes doctors, nurses, social workers, chaplains, home health aides, and trained volunteers.
3. CORTISOL
The Cortisol Test measures cortisol levels in the blood to assess adrenal gland function and diagnose conditions related to hormone imbalances and stress.
No fasting is required, but follow specific timing instructions provided by your healthcare provider. Inform them about any medications you are taking.
Cortisol levels typically vary throughout the day. Morning levels are usually highest, so the test is often scheduled in the morning.
Abnormal cortisol levels can indicate conditions such as Cushing’s syndrome, Addison’s disease, or other adrenal disorders. Further evaluation may be needed.
Results are generally available within 24 to 48 hours after the blood sample is collected, allowing for prompt review and diagnosis.
