Overview
PharmEasy Labs offers the facilities of home sample collection, where the phlebotomist arrives at the location to collect the sample without the trouble of visiting a diagnostic centre and waiting in long queues. PharmEasy Labs’ website and app can be used to book over 500 tests spread across 2500 pincodes. The team of phlebotomists and technicians have 25 years of experience in the field and analyze the reports in a speedy manner.
For greater transparency, regular updates are sent at every stage of the testing process via updates on the app. The reports are accurate and reliable, as they are analyzed using fully automated machines that have the latest technology. Once ready, a registered practitioner verifies the results, and then it is sent to the registered email address.
The VDRL test is nonspecific and can sometimes yield a false positive result. The test is ideal to detect the presence of syphilis in the middle stage of the infection. Syphilis antibodies are only generated by the body in the middle stage, not in the beginning or later stages. The VDRL test should be typically done within 3 weeks to 6 weeks of the infection.
Test Necessity
The doctor prescribes the VDRL test under the following conditions:
- During pregnancy, syphilis sometimes can get transferred from the mother to the unborn baby
- If there are more than one sexual partner
- If treatment has been done for gonorrhoea
- If people engage in unprotected sex
The test is also prescribed if the doctor observes symptoms of sexually transmitted diseases like syphilis, neurosyphilis, and gonorrhoea. The symptoms are:
- Chancre - red round sores on the body
- Lesions on the vagina or penis, anus, and mouth
- Red rashes on the body
- Fever
- Swollen lymph nodes
- Sore throat
- Muscle ache
- Unexplained weight loss
- Hair fall
Test Preparation
No special preparations are required before the VDRL test. As fasting is not required, it can be booked for any convenient time slot during the day.
During the VDRL Test
Once the booking of the VDRL test is confirmed, a phlebotomist will visit the location to collect the blood sample. They use new sterilized needles and gloves, and a vein finder device to locate the best vein to draw the blood from. The samples are stored in barcoded vials, kept in cooled containers, and then transported to the laboratory for analysis.
