What people say about us
Malaria is a disease caused by Plasmodium parasites, which are transmitted to humans via the bite of an infected female Anopheles mosquito. These parasites develop and replicate in red blood cells, causing symptoms including recurrent fever. If left untreated, malaria can lead to severe complications and possibly death. The Fever Profile for Malaria is a diagnostic test used in patients suspected of having malaria. Malaria typically presents with a sudden onset of high fever, chills, and sweating—symptoms that reflect the life cycle of the parasite in the bloodstream. The Fever Profile helps differentiate malaria from other illnesses with similar symptoms by checking the blood for the malarial parasite and performing other tests to confirm the diagnosis.
If you are in Noida and think you may have been exposed to malaria, getting tested is crucial. Early detection can help you start treatment promptly if infection is confirmed via a Fever Profile for Malaria in Noida.
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.
