    What is a Dengue Screening ?

    The Dengue Screening Package is a series of tests designed to detect and monitor dengue fever, a mosquito-borne viral illness. Dengue fever typically begins with symptoms similar to flu such as high fever, severe headaches, and joint pain, but in some cases, it can progress to more serious conditions. This package includes the Dengue Profile test using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), which detects the presence of NS1 antigen and IgM and IgG antibodies in your blood, confirming whether you have dengue fever. This is especially critical in regions where the disease is prevalent. Additionally, the package offers a Complete Blood Count (CBC) test to assess different blood components, including platelet levels. Since dengue can lower platelet levels, the CBC test, along with the Dengue Profile, helps identify the stage of infection and determines whether medical intervention is required. The package also features Liver Function Tests (LFTs) to evaluate liver health. As dengue can affect liver function, these tests monitor enzyme levels and detect any potential liver damage. The Dengue Screening Package provides a thorough assessment to aid in diagnosing and managing dengue fever.

    If you're in Hyderabad, you can conveniently schedule the Dengue Screening Package from the comfort of your home, no matter where you are in the city.

The Laboratory report will give you the normal range as per the age and gender. A complete blood count can help to detect a broad and conditions, from anaemia and infection to cancer and other disorders.

    Liver Function Test (LFT)

    Liver function is also called as liver profile or liver panel that measures different types of enzymes, proteins and other by products that are made by the liver. These tests analyses the levels of overall health of the liver. The liver performing its normal functions of producing protein and clearing bilirubin, a blood waste product.
    The liver panel test consists of:
    • Aspartate aminotransferase (AST): AST is an enzyme in your liver. High blood levels could be a sign of damage or disease.
    • Alanine aminotransferase (ALT): ALT is another enzyme that helps break down proteins and is found mainly in your liver. High levels in your blood could mean you have liver damage.
    • Alkaline phosphatase (ALP): ALP is an enzyme in your liver, bile ducts, and bones. You might have high values if you have liver damage or disease, and a blocked bile duct, or bone disease.
    • Bilirubin Total/Direct/ Indirect: Your body makes bilirubin when it breaks down red blood cells. Usually, your liver cleans up the bilirubin in your body. If you have high levels of a problem called jaundice, you may have liver damage.
    • Albumin: Albumin is a protein made by the liver that prevents the fluid from leaking out of the bloodstream.
    • Gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT): High levels of the GGT enzyme could point to liver or bile duct damage.
    • Total protein: This analyses the sum of two kinds of protein in the blood known as albumin and globulin. The test may analyse the relative levels of albumin and globulin, which is reported as the A/G ratio.
    • Globulins: Globulins are a class of proteins in the blood.
