The Diabetic Care Health Package – Basic is designed to assess various aspects of health, especially for individuals with diabetes or those at risk. It includes the following parameters:
Glucose, Fasting (F): Measures blood sugar levels after fasting for at least 8 hours. It helps assess insulin sensitivity and fasting blood glucose levels.
Glucose, Post Prandial (PP), 2 Hours: Measures blood sugar levels 2 hours after eating a meal. It helps monitor post-meal glucose levels and insulin response.
Urea, Serum: Indicates kidney function by measuring the amount of urea in the blood, a waste product filtered by the kidneys.
Creatinine, Serum: Another marker for kidney health, this test measures serum creatinine levels, helping assess kidney function and filtering efficiency.
Cholesterol, Total: Measures the total level of cholesterol in the blood, helping evaluate cardiovascular risk.
Triglycerides, Serum: Measures serum triglyceride levels, important for assessing lipid metabolism and risk of cardiovascular diseases.
HbA1c; Glycosylated Hemoglobin: Reflects average blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months, helping monitor long-term blood glucose control in diabetics.
Urine R/M (Routine Examination): A urine test to check for signs of protein, glucose, and other abnormalities in the urine, which could indicate kidney damage or infection.
This package provides a comprehensive check-up for diabetes management, kidney health, and cardiovascular risk.
