About this service

The routine check-up package for parents is an integrated service aimed at providing a comprehensive assessment of health through a range of essential laboratory tests. The package includes a complete blood count (CBC) to monitor hemoglobin and white blood cell levels, along with electrolyte and mineral tests such as sodium, potassium, calcium, and chloride. It also includes measurements of cholesterol levels (both harmful and beneficial types) and triglycerides to assess cardiovascular health, as well as kidney function tests such as creatinine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN). Lastly, uric acid levels and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) are measured to monitor overall health and predict risks for certain chronic conditions.

Test purpose

Complete Blood Count (CBC): Helps evaluate the number of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets, providing information about blood health and revealing conditions such as anemia or infections.
Electrolytes and Minerals (sodium, potassium, chloride, calcium): Reveal the balance of fluids and salts in the body, aiding in the diagnosis of issues like dehydration or kidney dysfunction.
Cholesterol and Triglycerides: Provide an indicator of fat levels in the blood, helping to assess the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
Liver Function Tests (AST, ALT): Reveal liver health and its ability to function normally, aiding in the early detection of liver diseases such as hepatitis or liver damage.
Creatinine and Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN): Help evaluate kidney function and efficiency in removing waste from the blood.
Glycated Hemoglobin (HbA1c): Indicates blood sugar levels over a prolonged period, helping detect diabetes or monitor its control.
Uric Acid: Reveals uric acid levels in the blood, assisting in the diagnosis of gout or kidney issues.

Recommended groups

Individuals with chronic diseases: Such as diabetes, heart disease, or kidney conditions, as these tests help monitor health status and manage the disease effectively.
People over the age of 40: As the risk of health issues such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and kidney diseases increases with age.
Individuals with nonspecific symptoms: Such as persistent fatigue, dizziness, or difficulty breathing, which may indicate problems with blood, liver, or kidney functions.
People with a family history of diseases: Such as heart disease, diabetes, or kidney disorders, as they are at a higher risk for these conditions.
Individuals following an unbalanced or restrictive diet: This could lead to imbalances in cholesterol and mineral levels.
Smokers or those exposed to environmental pollution: These factors can impact overall health and increase the risk of chronic diseases.
Individuals seeking routine health check-ups: To maintain general health and ensure that there are no undetected health issues.

Indicative symptoms

Persistent fatigue and exhaustion: This could be due to blood level imbalances or issues with liver and kidney function.
Chest pain or pressure: This may be related to heart problems or high cholesterol.
Shortness of breath: Could suggest heart or kidney problems, or low oxygen levels in the blood.
Swelling in the limbs: May be a result of fluid retention due to heart or kidney issues.
Dizziness or lightheadedness: This may indicate low hemoglobin levels or kidney problems.
Increased thirst or excessive urination: Could be a sign of blood sugar imbalances or kidney dysfunction.
Unexplained weight loss: May indicate hormonal imbalances or chronic diseases.
Changes in skin or eye color (yellowing): Could be due to elevated bilirubin levels or liver problems.
Joint pain or recurring inflammation: Might be linked to high uric acid levels.
Digestive issues or abdominal pain: May indicate liver or kidney dysfunction.
