    What is a Influenza Profile - Comprehensive ?

    An Influenza test helps determine if you have a flu virus infection, particularly the A or B strains, which are the most common causes of seasonal flu outbreaks. The flu is a viral illness that occurs mainly in the winter and spreads easily through coughing, sneezing, or touching contaminated surfaces. While the symptoms of flu are similar to those of the common cold—such as a runny nose and cough—flu symptoms tend to be more severe and can lead to serious complications.

    If your doctor suspects the flu, this test will help confirm the diagnosis. If the results are positive, your doctor may prescribe medications to help fight the virus and manage your symptoms.

    Our Comprehensive Influenza Package is designed to detect flu caused by both influenza A and B, as well as specific strains like H1N1, H3N2, and COVID-19. If you're experiencing symptoms such as headaches, body aches, sore throat, or fever, and you live in Bangalore, this package can help you identify the cause of your symptoms. Book an Influenza test in Bangalore today for accurate diagnosis and timely care.

    Influenza Profile - Comprehensive Parameters

    COVID -19 RT PCR

    This test is used to detect the presence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes COVID-19. It uses a method known as Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) to identify the virus's genetic material in a sample taken from the patient's respiratory tract. It is highly accurate and is the gold standard for diagnosing COVID-19.

    Influenza Virus Panel - Real Time PCR

    This is a diagnostic panel that uses real-time PCR technology to detect and differentiate between Influenza A, Influenza B, H1N1, and H3N2. It helps in the rapid and accurate diagnosis of influenza and its subtypes.

    Why Take the Influenza Profile - Comprehensive Checkup?

    If you're experiencing flu-like symptoms such as a sudden fever, dry cough, headache, sore throat, chills, runny nose, muscle aches, fatigue, or loss of appetite, it may be important to consult your doctor regarding the need for an Influenza test. While most people recover from the flu within a week or two without testing, certain factors may prompt your provider to recommend a Flu test.

    Risk factors that may warrant an Influenza test include:

    • A weakened immune system

    • Chronic illness

    • Pregnancy

    • Age over 65 years or under 5 years

    • Cancer (past or present)

    • Chronic health conditions (such as diabetes or asthma)

    A Flu test may also be necessary to help public health officials or doctors identify the cause of a respiratory illness outbreak in a community, such as in schools or nursing homes. Additionally, specialised Flu tests can determine the specific flu virus responsible for the infection.
