Introduction of Health Care Package

In this topic, we talk about the clinical diagnostic tests which indicate our health status. It is obvious that the health care package will depend on the individual age and pathological condition.

Comprehensive Profile

A profile is designed for diabetics having high blood pressure. People having this combination of diseases have a very risk of coronary artery disease  (Heart Attack ). This type of health care package consists of the following.

Executive Health Profile


1. Homocysteine
2. HbA1c
3. Microalbuminuria

Homocysteine: Homocysteine levels also have been found to correlate to the extent of atherosclerotic plaque in the aorta. Homocysteine van impairs the ability to repair vascular endothelial cell injury and thus promotes the development of atherosclerosis.

If you are interested

  1.  You should come fasting (12 hours) i.e. without eating anything in the morning.
  2.  You will have to submit a blood and a urine sample in the morning followed by another blood sample 2 hours after taking breakfast.
  3. Your report will be ready in the evening.
  4. You may contact your physician/family physician for interpretation and further investigation of an EGG.

Keynotes on Health Care Package

  1. Other names: Alanine Transaminase (ALT), SGPT, Serum Glutamic-Pyruvic Transaminase, GPT
  2. Haematocrit (HCT) is also called packed cell volume (PCV).
  3. Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is also referred to as glycated hemoglobin.
  4. Other names: SGOT, Serum Glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST)
  5. According to your reports of Health Care Packages, if there is a need for extra tests may be ordered like culture or other special tests.
