Lab Tests – What Are They?

A lab test is a simple yet vital medical process that helps determine any abnormality in the body. It is useful for tracking any ongoing ailments or for making diagnoses. Samples of a person's blood, urine, sputum, stool, and/or other bodily fluids are taken to begin the process. The sample is transported to a facility by a trained phlebotomist where advanced equipment is used to analyse the sample. The final result of the lab test is used by your doctor to decipher the real reason behind your symptoms, guide you with treatment decisions and help in your recovery.

When Does a Doctor Suggest a Lab Test?

A doctor can suggest to a person/patient lab tests for several reasons. These reasons can be for urgent medical clarification or precautionary measures. These are listed below:

• When a person is already diagnosed with a condition and receiving treatment for the same, some monitoring lab tests are prescribed to keep track of the patient's progress.
• If a person has a history of critical illnesses or comes from a family where one or more members were diagnosed with a serious or hereditary disease in the past, screening tests are recommended as a preventive measure.
• Appearance of concerning signs and symptoms is another factor why the doctor may deem it necessary to undergo a few lab tests to come to a diagnosis and rule out other possibilities.
• When surgery is being considered by your healthcare provider, he/she may think it necessary to undergo a few lab tests to assess your overall health.

How to Prepare for a Lab Test?

All lab tests entail some level of preparation to ensure that the reports that are generated provide accurate results. These steps include but are not limited to as follows:

• Fasting is one of the most important criteria of a blood test. Typically, some tests necessitate the need for maintaining 12 hours of fasting between the last meal and the time the blood is drawn. Often such tests are best done right in the morning, before you break your fast. Many tests like CBC can be done after a meal.
• When you get ready for your lab test, don’t forget to inform your healthcare provider of the supplements and medications you are taking. This is required because the effects of some medicines can alter the test results.
• When you are fasting, you are also not allowed to have any other drink except for water.
• Engaging in physical activities right before the test can impact your metabolic rate which can influence the test results. It is best to wait until your test is completed.
