Haematology Profile: This profile provides key insights into overall blood health and inflammation levels. It includes: Full Blood Count (FBC) – which assesses the number and types of cells in the blood, helping to detect anemia, infections, and other blood disorders; and Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) – a marker of inflammation in the body that can indicate underlying conditions such as infections, autoimmune diseases, or cancers. This profile helps in diagnosing a wide range of conditions related to blood and general health.

This profile analyses some of the major risk factors for heart problems. This profile will tell you if you have diabetes (HbA1c) – there are over 1 million people with diabetes who do not know they have it. Finding out will enable you to make the lifestyle changes and start treatments that will significantly lengthen your life and improve how you feel every day. It includes a full cholesterol profile analysing over 5 parameters. Over 40% of adults have high cholesterol levels which is a very signficant risk factor for heart attacks and strokes. The only way to detect if you have high cholesterol is through a blood test. It will enable you to make the changes you need to reduce your risk of some of the most common causes of death. Generalised inflammation is tested with a high sensitivity C-reactive protein level. Firstly, Inflamation is bad for your heart. A high CRP level can also indicate the presence of a very wide range of other health problems like autoimmune diease, bacterial infections, osteomyelitis, pelvic inflammatory disease and inflammatory bowel disease.

This test measures the presence of antibodies and antigens related to Hepatitis A, B, and C viruses in the blood. It can contribute to the diagnosis of Hepatitis A, B, and C infections. It inculdes a liver function test which can be affected by hepatitiis infections. “Hepatitis A, B, C Profile”, “The ‘Hepatitis A, B, C Profile’ provides a comprehensive assessment of hepatitis infections and liver health. This profile includes tests for Hepatitis A, B, and C, including: – **Hepatitis B Surface Antigen (HBsAg)**: Detects the presence of the Hepatitis B virus in the blood, indicating an active infection. – **Hepatitis B Core Antibodies (Anti-HBc)**: Indicates past or ongoing infection with Hepatitis B virus. – **Hepatitis B Immunity (Anti-HBs)**: Detects antibodies to Hepatitis B, indicating either vaccination or recovery from a past infection. – **Hepatitis A Immunity (IgG/IgM)**: Identifies current or past infection with Hepatitis A or recent immunity. – **Hepatitis A IgG**: Indicates past infection or vaccination against Hepatitis A. – **Hepatitis C Antigen (Early Detection)**: Detects the presence of Hepatitis C virus early in the infection. – **Hepatitis C Antibodies**: Shows if there has been exposure to Hepatitis C virus. – **Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT)**: An enzyme that, when elevated, can indicate liver inflammation or damage. – **Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST)**: An enzyme that helps diagnose liver disease, often in conjunction with ALT. – **Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP)**: An enzyme related to liver and bone health, elevated levels can indicate liver disease or bile duct obstruction. – **Gamma-Glutamyltransferase (GGT)**: An enzyme that helps identify liver dysfunction and alcohol-related liver disease. – **Total Bilirubin**: Measures the level of bilirubin in the blood, which can indicate liver or bile duct issues. – **Total Protein**: Assesses overall protein levels in the blood, reflecting liver function. – **Albumin**: A protein made by the liver, low levels can suggest liver dysfunction or disease. – **Globulin**: A group of proteins in the blood that can indicate immune system activity or liver disease. This profile helps in diagnosing hepatitis infections, monitoring liver health, and guiding appropriate treatment and management strategies.”
