Benefits of testing

BENEFITS OF TESTING:

Regular health screenings are essential for women in their 60s and beyond to detect any potential health issues early on. By undergoing the Sensational Sixties Plus Basic package, you can reap numerous benefits and take control of your health:

Comprehensive Assessment: Our package includes a wide range of tests that provide a holistic evaluation of your health. The Urinalysis + Sediment Test and Complete Blood Count (CBC) Test offer insights into your overall well-being and can detect various conditions. The Glucose Test helps assess your blood sugar levels and identify potential diabetes risks. The Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) Test and C-reactive Protein (CRP) Test can indicate the presence of inflammation, which can accompany rheumatic diseases or even cancer. The Cholesterol Test, Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL) Test, High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL) Test, and Triglycerides Test assess your lipid profile and contribute to early diagnosis of diabetes, metabolic syndrome, and cardiovascular diseases.
Thyroid Function Evaluation: The Thyroid-stimulating Hormone (TSH) Test, Free Thyroxine (fT4) Test, and Free Triiodothyronine (fT3) Test allow for a comprehensive assessment of your thyroid gland's function. This is particularly important as disorders of the thyroid often appear in women during this stage of life.
Monitoring Kidney Function: The Creatinine/eGFR Test and Urea Test help assess your kidney function, allowing for the early detection of any potential issues. This is crucial in preventing the development of kidney diseases or complications.
Liver Function Evaluation: The Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) Test, Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) Test, Gamma-glutamyl Transferase (GGT) Test, and Amylase Test provide insights into your liver and pancreatic health, enabling the early detection of any abnormalities.
Assessment of Nutrient Levels: The Magnesium (Mg) Test, Sodium (Na) Test, Potassium (K) Test, and Calcium (Ca) Test evaluate the levels of essential nutrients in your body, ensuring proper functioning of the nervous, muscular, and cardiovascular systems.
Cancer Screenings: Our package includes various cancer screenings, such as the D-dimer Test, which is important for assessing the possibility of thromboembolic complications. Additionally, other tests, such as mammograms, Pap smears, or colonoscopies, may be recommended based on your individual needs and medical history.
Cognitive Health Assessment: As cognitive health is vital for overall well-being, cognitive health screenings may be included in our package. These assessments help evaluate memory, cognition, and mental acuity, allowing for early identification of any cognitive changes and facilitating appropriate interventions or support.

Blood Test Preparation Guidelines

Time of day

It is recommended to schedule your appointment for blood tests in the morning hours between 7:00-10:00.

Fasting

It is recommended to fast for approximately 12 hours before blood sampling. The last meal of the previous day should ideally be consumed around 6:00 p.m. On the day before the test, avoid heavy and fatty meals as well as alcohol.

Stay hydrated

Drinking water prior to testing can help with sample collection.

Other factors

Tests should not be performed after a sleepless night or intense physical activity. It is recommended to avoid exercise and stress immediately before blood collection and to not smoke. A short rest is recommended.

Medications and supplements:

Blood samples should be collected before the morning dose. Some drugs can interfere with test results. Consult with your doctor whether you can delay your dose because of lab tests.

Biotin supplements:

High doses of biotin supplements can affect test results, causing false elevation or reduction. It's recommended to avoid taking biotin for at least 72 hours before blood collection. If you are taking biotin, inform the personnel collecting the blood so that they can provide specific instructions.

Preparing for Urinalysis Test

Buy container

Buy sterile, disposable urine containers from pharmacies.

You can also buy a container from a diagnostic centre but the price will be higher. Container is not included in the price of the tests.

Time of day

Ideally, collect the first urine in the morning after an 8-hour overnight rest or at least 4 hours after the last urination to prevent functional proteinuria.

Mid-stream Sample

Collect the urine mid-stream, not at the beginning or end of urination, to avoid contamination. The sample volume should be 20 to 100 milliliters, depending on the container's size.

Hygiene

Wash the area around the urethra with warm water, without using any cleaning or disinfecting products.

Fasting

Do not eat or drink for 12 hours before collecting the urine sample. If necessary, you can drink one glass of clean, unflavoured water during this time.

Physical activity

Avoid intense physical activity before providing a urine sample, as it can lead to an increase in protein and ketone levels in urine.

Menstrual period

Women should avoid providing a urine sample during the menstrual period or within two days of its completion, as this can affect the test results due to the presence of red blood cells and epithelial cells in the urine.

Sexual activity

Abstain from sexual activity before providing a urine sample.

Deliver sample

Take the sample(s) to the sampling point on the same day. Storage: Keep the samples at refrigerated temperature (+2...+8°C) until they are taken to the sampling point.
