NSAID 6-PANEL (KFT, LFT)

The NSAID therapy panel is used to analyze liver and kidney damage. This test helps detect issues like liver cirrhosis, liver cancer, kidney injury, and more.
Number of tests: 6

  • ALKP: Alkaline phosphatase – Blockage of bile duct, gallbladder stones, etc.
  • BUN: Blood urea nitrogen – Kidney injury, liver cirrhosis, hepatitis, etc.
  • CREA: Creatinine – Impaired kidney function or kidney disease
  • BUN/CREA: The ratio indicates tubular necrosis, protein deficiency, liver disease, or elevated uremia.
  • ALT: Alanine aminotransferase – Liver malfunction
  • AST: Aspartate aminotransferase – Liver infection, cirrhosis, and damage.

  • Sample required: Whole blood/plasma
    Time taken:13 minutes


                        
CHEM 17 PANEL

The Chem 17 panel is a comprehensive chemistry profile that evaluates proteins, enzymes, cholesterol, and glucose levels to assess the functional capacity of critical organs like the liver, kidney, and pancreas.
Number of tests: 17

  • ALB: Albumin – Blood test to assess liver function.
  • ALB/GLOB: Albumin-globulin ratio.
  • ALKP: Alkaline phosphatase – Liver and bone disease.

  • GLOB: Globulin – Immune function.
  • GLU: Glucose – Sugar metabolism.
  • LIPA: Lipase – Pancreatic health.
  • PHOS: Phosphate – Bone and kidney health.

Number of tests: 3

  • Albumin
  • Globulin
  • A/G ratio:Albumin-to-globulin ratio.

Number of tests: 1

Sample required:Whole blood/serum
Time taken:8 minutes


             
COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT (CBC)

  • HGB:Hemoglobin – Oxygen-carrying protein.
  • MCHC:Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration.
  • WBC: White blood cell count.
  • GRANS: Granulocytes – Type of white blood cell
  • NEUT: Neutrophils – A type of white blood cell

  • PLT: Platelet count.
  • NRBCS: Nucleated red blood cells
  • FIBRIN: Fibrinogen – Involved in blood clotting.
  • RETICS:Reticulocytes – Immature red blood cells.

  • Sample required: 100 microliters of blood (4-5 drops)
    Time taken:6 minutes
