HDL cholestrol

₹175.00

The purpose of HDL cholesterol testing is to assess your cardiovascular health, including your risk for heart disease. HDL cholesterol is considered to be a good type of cholesterol that is associated with a lower risk of coronary heart disease events.

Measuring HDL cholesterol and total cholesterol together in the same blood sample allows the doctor to easily calculate the ratio of HDL cholesterol to non-HDL cholesterol. This is important for assessing your cardiovascular health and allows the doctor to understand the relative amounts of good and bad cholesterols.

Testing of HDL cholesterol can play a role in screening, monitoring, and diagnosing problems that affect your heart, blood vessels, and blood circulation.

Screening
Screening is looking for health problems before any symptoms have occurred. The goal of cardiovascular screening is to better address problems by finding them at an earlier stage.

  • TMT

    A Treadmill Stress Test (TMT) is a form of stress test that?s conducted while you do an exercise walking on a treadmill during the course of an Electro Cardiogram (ECG). The TMT testing compares blood circulation in your heart when you?re resting and under the influence of optimum physical pressure. A TMT is performed to ascertain the following conditions.

    To identify a congenital heart problem like Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) wherein blood vessels/arteries get clogged, diseased or damaged
    To determine the functioning of your heart post a heart-attack or angioplasty
    To detect repressed heart conditions like shallow breathing, dizziness, chest discomfort and abrupt bodily weaknesses
    To monitor the efficacy of medications applied to cure diseases such as angina and ischemia
    To discern any abnormal heartbeat rate because of exertion caused by exercise

  • Lung Function test

    Lung function tests, also known as pulmonary function tests, or PFTs, are a group of tests that check to see if your lungs are working right. The tests look for:

    How much air your lungs can hold
    How well you move air in and out of your lungs
    How well the lungs move oxygen into your bloodstream. Your blood cells need oxygen to grow and stay healthy.
    There are several types of lung function tests. They include:

    Spirometry. the most common type of lung function test. It measures how much and how quickly you can move air in and out of your lungs.
    Lung volume test. also known as body plethysmography. This test measures the amount of air you can hold in your lungs and the amount of air that remains after you exhale (breathe out) as much as you can.
    Gas diffusion test. This test measures how oxygen and other gases move from the lungs to the bloodstream.
    Exercise stress test. This test looks at how exercise affects lung function.

  • Anti HBs

    HBsAg (Hepatitis B surface antigen) – A “positive” or “reactive” HBsAg test result means that the person is infected with hepatitis B. This test can detect the actual presence of the hepatitis B virus (called the ?surface antigen?) in your blood. If a person tests ?positive,? then further testing is needed to determine if this is a new ?acute? infection or a ?chronic? hepatitis B infection. A positive HBsAg test result means that you are infected and can spread the hepatitis B virus to others through your blood.
    anti-HBs or HBsAb (Hepatitis B surface antibody) – A “positive” or “reactive” anti-HBs (or HBsAb) test result indicates that a person is protected against the hepatitis B virus. This protection can be the result of receiving the hepatitis B vaccine or successfully recovering from a past hepatitis B infection. This test is not routinely included in blood bank screenings. A positive anti-HBs (or HBsAb) test result means you are ?immune? and protected against the hepatitis B virus and cannot be infected. You are not infected and cannot spread hepatitis B to others.
    anti-HBc or HBcAb (Hepatitis B core antibody) – A “positive” or “reactive” anti-HBc (or HBcAb) test result indicates a past or current hepatitis B infection. The core antibody does not provide any protection against the hepatitis B virus (unlike the surface antibody described above). This test can only be fully understood by knowing the results of the first two tests (HBsAg and anti-HBs). A positive anti-HBc (or HBcAb) test result requires talking to your health care provider for a complete explanation of your hepatitis B status.

  • D-Dimer

    A D-dimer test looks for D-dimer in blood. D-dimer is a protein fragment (small piece) that’s made when a blood clot dissolves in your body.

    Blood clotting is an important process that prevents you from losing too much blood when you are injured. Normally, your body will dissolve the clot once your injury has healed. With a blood clotting disorder, clots can form when you don’t have an obvious injury or don’t dissolve when they should. These conditions can be very serious and even life-threatening. A D-dimer test can show if you have one of these conditions.

  • SHBG (Sex Hormone Binding Globulin)

    What is an SHBG blood test?
    This test measures the levels of SHBG in your blood. SHBG stands for sex hormone binding globulin. It’s a protein made by the liver and attaches itself to sex hormones found in both men and women. These hormones are:

    Testosterone, the main sex hormone in men
    Dihydrotestosterone (DHT), another male sex hormone
    Estradiol, a form of estrogen, the main sex hormone in women
    SHBG controls how much of these hormones are delivered to the body’s tissues. Although SHBG attaches to all three of these hormones, an SHBG test is mostly used to look at testosterone. SHBG levels can show if there is too much or too little testosterone being used by the body. What is it used for?
    An SHBG test is most often used to find out how much testosterone is going to the body’s tissues. Testosterone levels can be measured in a separate test called total testosterone. This test shows how much testosterone is in the body, but not how much is being used by the body.

    Sometimes a total testosterone test is enough to make a diagnosis. But some people have symptoms of too much or too little of the hormone that the total testosterone test results can’t explain. In these cases, an SHBG test may be ordered to provide more information about how much testosterone is available to the body.
