Pre-Chemo Blood Tests Details

The Importance of Pre-Chemotherapy Blood Tests for Cancer Patients in Gurgaon 

Chemotherapy is a cancer treatment involving the use of anti-cancer drugs. Prior to commencing chemotherapy, your doctor will conduct essential tests to evaluate your overall health and assess your if health status is suitable for the treatment. These initial blood tests establish a baseline record and confirm your body's readiness for chemotherapy. Throughout the treatment process, your doctor will also periodically order additional blood tests to closely monitor your body's reaction to the chemotherapy and monitor its effectiveness.

How Pre-Chemotherapy Blood Checkups Protect Cancer Patients in Gurgaon 

Blood tests play a crucial role in your pre-treatment evaluation, ensuring the safety of administering chemotherapy. Ideally, these tests should be conducted before you consult with the doctor, enabling them to make informed decisions regarding the treatment dosage. The following explains how pre-chemotherapy in Gurgaon offers protection to patients with cancer:

​

• Blood tests for red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs), and platelet counts: If your RBC count is too low, a blood transfusion may be necessary. Similarly, low WBC or platelet counts can make further treatment unsafe. 

• Blood tests for biomarkers: Certain cancers release specific chemicals or biomarkers into the bloodstream. Your doctor might request a blood test to detect these markers, which can help assess the effectiveness of your treatment. 

• Blood tests to evaluate the functionality of your kidneys and liver: If these organs are not functioning optimally, chemotherapy may lead to increased side effects. 

​

These comprehensive blood tests before chemotherapy are essential for ensuring the safety and effectiveness of your cancer treatment.
