Test Necessity
The liver is an essential organ that performs several vital functions like the removal of toxins from the blood, regulation of blood sugar levels, digestion and absorption of fats, storage of essential vitamins and minerals, etc. The importance of a healthy liver cannot be emphasised enough.
Liver diseases are on the rise in today’s world, given a sedentary lifestyle, excessive consumption of alcohol and junk food, increasing use of drugs and medications, as well as exposure to pollutants in food, air and water. Plus, people with medical conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure or those with a family history of liver-related diseases are much more at risk of developing liver disorders.
The SGOT test is a preliminary blood test that helps keep a watch on your liver health. It is often advised as part of a regular health check. Elevated levels of SGOT help in the early detection of any liver-related concerns, as they signal the need for further investigative tests for a detailed diagnosis. The SGOT test is also advised in cases of symptoms that suggest a liver disorder, like abdominal swelling, nausea or vomiting, loss of appetite, weakness and fatigue, jaundice, dark-coloured urine, etc.
Test Preparation
The SGOT test is a simple blood test that does not require fasting or any other special preparation. However, you may want to check with your medical practitioner regarding any dietary restrictions and any ongoing medication schedule that might influence the test results.
During the SGOT Test
An SGOT test requires a blood sample, for which a PharmEasy phlebotomist (a trained sample collection agent) will come to your place at the scheduled date and time equipped with the necessary materials. A sealed kit containing one-time-use materials is used for the test. A Vein Finder machine is used to detect a vein in one of the hands, and blood is withdrawn using a disposable syringe. The blood sample is stored in an airtight, barcoded vial to prevent any mix-up of samples. Once done, the needle puncture is cleaned with an antiseptic-soaked cotton swab and sealed with a bandage.
