anemia Anemia Panel $135.00 CALL & BOOK TEST An anemia panel is taken to diagnose anemia, identify its underlying causes, and guide appropriate treatment by assessing various factors such as blood cell counts, iron levels, and vitamin deficiencies. Sample Type: Blood Preperation: No Preperation Required Sample Collection: In Person ABOUT THE ANEMIA PANEL The anemia panel provides a comprehensive assessment to diagnose anemia and determine its underlying causes by evaluating blood cell counts, iron levels, and vitamin deficiencies. It includes tests such as CBC, Ferritin, Iron, Reticulocyte Count, B12/Folic Acid, and TIBC to offer a detailed view of your blood health and iron metabolism. The panel helps identify specific types of anemia, guiding targeted treatment and dietary adjustments to improve overall health and address any deficiencies. How do I know if this test is for me? You should consider the anemia panel if you experience symptoms of anemia, such as fatigue, weakness, pale skin, or shortness of breath. It’s also relevant if you have risk factors for anemia, such as a history of gastrointestinal issues, chronic diseases, or poor dietary intake of essential nutrients. Consulting with your healthcare provider will help determine if this test is appropriate based on your symptoms, health history, and risk factors. Whats tested? The anemia panel tests the following: 1. CBC (Complete Blood Count): Measures overall blood health, including red and white blood cells and platelets, to diagnose anemia and other blood disorders. 2. Ferritin: Assesses the levels of stored iron in the body to determine iron deficiency or overload. 3. Iron: Measures the amount of circulating iron in the blood to evaluate anemia and iron status. 4. Reticulocyte Count: Evaluates the number of young red blood cells in the blood to assess the bone marrow’s response to anemia. 5. B12/Folic Acid: Measures levels of vitamin B12 and folic acid to identify deficiencies that can cause anemia and affect blood health. 6. TIBC (Total Iron-Binding Capacity): Assesses the blood’s ability to bind and transport iron, providing insights into iron metabolism and potential deficiencies. What insights will the test provide? The anemia panel provides insights into: 1. Anemia Diagnosis: Identifies the presence and type of anemia by evaluating blood cell counts, iron levels, and vitamin deficiencies. 2. Iron Status: Determines iron deficiency or overload through tests like Ferritin, Iron, and TIBC, helping to pinpoint the cause of anemia. 3. Nutritional Deficiencies: Reveals deficiencies in vitamins such as B12 and Folate, which are crucial for red blood cell production and overall blood health. 4. Bone Marrow Function: Assesses the reticulocyte count to evaluate the bone marrow’s response to anemia and its ability to produce new red blood cells. How do I prepare for the test? To prepare for the anemia panel: 1. Fasting: Generally, fasting is not required, but check with your healthcare provider for any specific instructions. 2. Medications and Supplements: Inform your healthcare provider about any medications or supplements you are taking, as they may impact test results. 3. Hydration: Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated, but avoid excessive water intake immediately before the test. Always follow any additional preparation instructions provided by your healthcare provider to ensure accurate results. HOW DIRECT LABS WORK 01.

Lipid Cholesterol Panel $20.00 CALL & BOOK TEST A Cholesterol Panel, also known as a Lipid Panel or lipid profile, is a blood test that measures the levels of various fats (lipids) in your blood. Sample Type: Blood Preperation: 9-12 Hour Fast Sample Collection: In Person ABOUT LIPID TESTS The lipid test assesses your risk for cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack and stroke, helps monitor the effectiveness of cholesterol-lowering treatments, and aids in evaluating overall heart health. Regular testing can guide lifestyle changes and medical interventions to manage cholesterol levels and reduce cardiovascular risk. How do I know if this test is for me? You may need a lipid test if you have risk factors for cardiovascular disease, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, or a family history of heart disease. It’s also recommended if you have symptoms of high cholesterol, such as chest pain or atherosclerosis. Additionally, if you’re undergoing treatment for high cholesterol or need to monitor heart health, a lipid test can help assess your progress. Consult your healthcare provider to determine if this test is appropriate based on your health profile and risk factors. Whats tested? A lipid test measures several key types of fats in your blood: 1. Total Cholesterol: The overall amount of cholesterol present in your blood. 2. Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL) Cholesterol: Often termed “bad” cholesterol, high levels can lead to plaque buildup in arteries and increase the risk of heart disease. 3. High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL) Cholesterol: Known as “good” cholesterol, it helps remove LDL cholesterol from the bloodstream, thereby reducing heart disease risk. 4. Triglycerides: A type of fat in the blood that, when elevated, can also increase the risk of heart disease. These measurements help assess your risk for cardiovascular diseases and guide appropriate treatment and lifestyle changes. What insights will the test provide? The lipid test provides insights into your blood lipid levels, including total cholesterol, LDL (“bad” cholesterol), HDL (“good” cholesterol), and triglycerides. It helps evaluate your risk for cardiovascular diseases, such as heart attack and stroke, by identifying unhealthy cholesterol and fat levels. The test is crucial for monitoring heart health, guiding treatment decisions, and making lifestyle changes to reduce cardiovascular risk. How do I prepare for the test? To prepare for a lipid test: 1. Fasting: Fast for 9-12 hours before the test, consuming only water. This ensures accurate measurement of triglyceride and cholesterol levels, as food intake can affect the results. 2. Hydration: Drink plenty of water before the test to help with blood draw. 3. Medications: Inform your healthcare provider about any medications or supplements you are taking, as they can influence lipid levels. 4. Avoid Alcohol and Caffeine: Refrain from consuming alcohol and caffeine for at least 24 hours before the test, as they can affect results. 5. Follow Instructions: Adhere to any specific instructions provided by your healthcare provider or testing facility. Proper preparation ensures that the results of the lipid test are accurate and reliable. HOW DIRECT LABS WORK 01.
