CertifiedLabsMalaria is a parasitic disease caused by Plasmodium parasites, which are transmitted to humans through the bite of an infected female Anopheles mosquito. The malarial parasites multiply inside red blood cells, typically causing persistent fever among other symptoms. Without proper treatment, malaria can progress to severe complications and may result in death. The Fever Profile for Malaria is a diagnostic test conducted in individuals suspected of having malaria. Malaria often presents with the sudden onset of high fever, chills, and sweating, symptoms that coincide with the parasite's life cycle in the blood. This Fever Profile helps distinguish malaria from other febrile illnesses by detecting the malarial parasite in the blood and using other tests to confirm the diagnosis.
Residents of Gurgaon who believe they may have been exposed to Malaria should get tested today. The Fever Profile for Malaria in Gurgaon allows for early detection and ensures timely treatment if the infection is found.
The Complete Blood Count (CBC) is a common blood test that measures various parameters of the blood, including red blood cells (which carry oxygen), white blood cells (which fight infection), and platelets (which help blood clot). It also checks the hemoglobin, hematocrit, and mean corpuscular volume (MCV) to provide information about the blood's overall health.
