    What is a Pre-Chemotherapy Blood Checkup ?

    A Pre-Chemotherapy Blood Checkup is a set of essential blood tests conducted before starting chemotherapy treatment. These tests help doctors make sure your body is healthy enough to handle chemotherapy and its effects. Chemotherapy can affect various body functions, so it is crucial to assess your overall health beforehand.

    The Pre-Chemotherapy Blood Checkup includes a comprehensive set of tests designed to monitor important organs and functions, such as blood, liver, kidney, and clotting ability. Blood tests checked for the complete blood count include red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs), and platelets along with other blood-related parameters. These parameters are critical because chemotherapy medications can suppress bone marrow production, leading to low counts of RBCs, WBCs, and platelets.

    Additionally, liver and kidney function tests are included, as chemotherapy medications can impact these organs. Kidney function tests, along with electrolytes, and liver function tests (such as SGOT, SGPT, and bilirubin), help doctors ensure your organs are capable of processing and eliminating the medications from the body effectively.

    The checkup also includes blood sugar tests and clotting time tests (prothrombin time), offering a more detailed picture of your overall health. By getting this checkup done before treatment, you help your doctor tailor the chemotherapy plan to your individual needs, minimising risks and ensuring the best possible outcome for your health.

    Pre-Chemotherapy Blood Checkup Parameters

    Liver Function Test (LFT)

    The Liver Function Test (LFT) is a group of tests used to evaluate the health of your liver. It measures the levels of proteins, liver enzymes, and bilirubin in your blood. An LFT can help diagnose liver diseases such as hepatitis, cirrhosis, or liver cancer.

    • Alkaline Phosphatase

    • SGOT / AST - Aspartate AminoTransferase

    • Alanine AminoTransferase/ ALT (SGPT)

    • Gamma-Glutamyl Transferase (GGT)

    • Total Bilirubin

    • Direct Bilirubin

    • Indirect Bilirubin

    • Total protein

    • ALBUMIN

    • Globulin

    • A:G ratio

    • SGOT/SGPT ratio

    Prothrombin Time (PT/INR)

    The PT test measures how long it takes for your blood to clot. It's often used to monitor individuals who are taking blood-thinning medications, or to help diagnose clotting disorders.

    Blood Sugar

    This test measures the amount of glucose, or sugar, in the blood. It's typically used to screen for, diagnose, or monitor diabetes. It can be done in a fasting state, randomly or post-meal (postprandial).

    Kidney Function Test with Electrolytes (KFT / RFT)

    The Kidney Function Test with Electrolytes, also known as Renal Function Test (RFT), is a group of tests that evaluate how well the kidneys are working. This includes measurements of electrolyte levels (like sodium, potassium, and chloride), BUN (blood urea nitrogen), creatinine, and GFR (glomerular filtration rate), which can help assess kidney health and diagnose kidney-related conditions.

    • Urea

    • Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN)

    • Uric acid

    • Phosphorus

    • Calcium

    • Creatinine

    • eGFR

    • Sodium

    • Potassium

    • Chloride

    • BUN Creatinine ratio

    Complete Blood Count (CBC) with ESR

    This is a combination of the Complete Blood Count (CBC), which measures various components of the blood, along with the Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR). The ESR is a type of blood test that measures how quickly erythrocytes (red blood cells) settle at the bottom of a test tube containing a blood sample. A faster than normal rate may indicate a systemic disease, such as inflammation, infection, or cancer.

    • Red Blood Cell Count (RBC Count)

    • HEMATOCRIT

    • Haemoglobin (Hb)

    • Total WBC Count (TC)

    • MCV

    • MCH

    • MCHC

    • RDW

    • Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC)

    • Absolute Lymphocyte Count (ALC)

    • Absolute Eosinophil Count (AEC)

    • Absolute monocyte count

    • absolute basophil count

    • platelets

    • neutrophil

    • Monocyte

    • Eosinophils

    • Basophils

    • mentzer index

    • Sehgal Index

    • platelet hematocrit

    • Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR)

    • MPV

    • Neutrophil lymphocyte ratio

    • lymphocyte count

    Cautions Before Taking a Pre-Chemotherapy Blood Checkup

    No specific preparation is required for a Pre-Chemotherapy Blood Checkup at home.

    Why Take the Pre-Chemotherapy Blood Checkup Checkup?

    A Pre-Chemotherapy Blood Checkup is crucial for ensuring that your body is prepared for the challenges of chemotherapy. Before treatment begins, blood tests are performed to check your red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs), and platelets. Chemotherapy medications can suppress bone marrow, leading to a decrease in blood cell levels. If your RBC count is insufficient, a transfusion may be needed. If WBC or platelet counts are low, proceeding with treatment might be risky.

    In addition to blood cells, the tests evaluate kidney and liver function, as these organs process chemotherapy medications. Since chemotherapy can affect both organs, it is essential to ensure they are working properly before proceeding with treatment. Liver function is monitored through tests like SGOT, SGPT, and bilirubin, while kidney health is checked through tests for urea, creatinine, and electrolytes. These tests help ensure that the chemotherapy medications can be effectively processed and eliminated by your body.

    The pre-chemo checkup also includes blood sugar and clotting time tests, giving your doctor a full picture of your health.

    By taking this checkup before starting treatment, you ensure that any potential issues are addressed early. Blood tests provide a baseline for your health, allowing doctors to monitor changes throughout your treatment course. If your test results show abnormalities, your treatment may be delayed or adjusted to reduce risks. Regular monitoring helps personalise treatment, ensuring that chemotherapy is safe and effective for your unique health condition.
