Early diagnosis through the VDRL test is crucial for prompt treatment and prevention of complications. It is also a routine screening test, especially during pregnancy and for individuals with high-risk sexual behaviours.

During the VDRL Test

A vaccinated phlebotomist will arrive on time to collect your VDRL test sample. During the test, the phlebotomist wears masks and gloves for safety. A fresh kit and a sterilised, sealed needle are used to draw a small blood sample. The sample is then stored in a barcoded vial and placed in a cooling container. The entire sample collection process will be efficiently completed within 5-10 minutes.

The normal values, parameters, and reference ranges of the test may vary from lab to lab. Please refer to the ranges mentioned in the report and consult a doctor to understand the interpretation of lab reports.
