Health Checkup Packages & Specialized Profiles
Antenatal Profile (ANC) (S & E)
A **vital set of comprehensive screening tests** essential for monitoring the health and well-being of the mother and the developing fetus throughout pregnancy. It aids in the early detection and management of risks like gestational diabetes and infections.
Key Guideline:
- An **overnight fast of 10-12 hours** is strictly required for the blood sugar component.
- Please consult your gynecologist regarding current medications before the blood draw.

- **Crucial:** Inform the lab technician about the duration of the fever and any antibiotics taken.
Thyroid Profile (TP) (S & E)
The standard test (T3, T4, TSH) to **assess the functional health of your thyroid gland**. This profile is necessary for diagnosing and monitoring conditions like hyper- and hypothyroidism, which affect metabolism and energy.
Key Guideline:
- **No fasting** is required for this specific test.
- If you take thyroid medication, take it only **after** the blood sample collection.
Diabetic Profile (S & E)
A comprehensive group of tests (including HbA1c and Fasting/Post-Lunch Glucose) used for the **diagnosis and effective management of diabetes** and pre-diabetic conditions.
Key Guideline:
- A strict **overnight fast of 8–10 hours** is mandatory for accurate results.
- Drink only plain water before the sample collection.
Lipid Profile (S)
Measures all cholesterol types (LDL, HDL, Total Cholesterol) and triglycerides to **accurately assess cardiovascular risk** and guide dietary or medical treatment plans.
Key Guideline:
- A complete **12 hours of fasting** is essential for the reliability of the triglyceride and cholesterol readings.
- Avoid alcohol and heavy meals the night before the test.
Surgical Profile Short (S & E)
A focused pre-surgical package providing basic, necessary investigations (such as blood count and clotting time) required to **clear a patient for safe anesthesia and minor surgical procedures.**
Key Guideline:
- Fasting may be required depending on the specific blood tests included—please confirm with your surgeon's instructions.
- Inform the staff immediately of any blood-thinning medication you are taking.
Surgical Profile Full (S & E)
A **complete preoperative evaluation**, including in-depth assessment of blood profile, kidney and liver functions, blood group, and clotting factors to ensure comprehensive safety before major surgery.
Key Guideline:
- An **8-hour fasting period** is typically required for accurate metabolic results.
- Ensure you bring any relevant medical documentation or previous reports with you.
Dengue Profile (S & E)
The essential test package to **detect Dengue infection** by screening for the NS1 antigen (for early infection) and IgM/IgG antibodies (for later stages), allowing for timely medical intervention.
Key Guideline:
- No fasting is required for the Dengue Profile.
- The timing of the test relative to the fever onset is crucial for diagnosis—please inform the lab of the exact date your fever started.
ECG (Electrocardiogram)
A quick, non-invasive procedure that records the electrical activity of the heart, used to **identify heart rhythm abnormalities** and detect signs of cardiac stress or damage.
Key Guideline:
- Avoid applying oil or lotion to your chest area before the test.
- Try to remain calm and relaxed during the procedure to ensure a clear reading.
General Check-up
A foundational **preventive health evaluation** covering major organ systems, including essential blood, liver, and kidney function tests, recommended as an annual screening.
Key Guideline:
- An **8–10 hour fasting period** is highly recommended for the accuracy of metabolic and sugar parameters.
- This check-up is a great starting point for proactive health management.
