Home Service Blood Test

A C – reactive protein or CRP test determines the level of C – reactive protein (CRP) in a sample of your blood. Your liver produces the protein known as CRP. Your blood’s normal amount of C-reactive protein is low. If there is inflammation in your body, your liver will release more cortisol into your circulation. Elevated CRP levels might indicate a significant inflammatory medical disease.
Your body uses inflammation as a defense mechanism and to speed up the healing process after an accident, infection, or other illness. Both transient and acute (sudden) inflammation are possible. Generally, this kind of inflammation is beneficial. For instance, following a cut, your skin could swell, get red, and pain for a few days. These indicate inflammation. Moreover, inflammation can also happen inside your body.

Overly protracted inflammation has the potential to harm healthy tissues. We refer to this as persistent, or chronic, inflammation. Harmful chronic inflammation can be brought on by autoimmune diseases, other illnesses, and persistent infections. Persistent injury or irritation to your tissues, such as from smoking or toxins in the surroundings, can also result in chronic inflammation.
The results of a CRP test might indicate the presence and degree of inflammation in your body. It is not possible for the test to identify the exact location of the inflammation or what is causing it.

With Vesta Care, you can now have a medical expert do your CRP test in the comfort of your own home in Dubai. Get DHA licensed nurse to your house in the next 45 minutes of the same day, and you should have results in the following 24 to 48 hours.

What Is a Lipid Profile test?

Covering your needs at your preferred location or through the phone around the clock!

The fatty materials our bodies store as a source of energy are called lipids. Lipid Profile test is a type of blood test that quantifies the concentration of certain fat molecules in your blood, known as lipids. The panel typically includes a test of your triglycerides and four distinct cholesterol levels. An accumulation of lipids (triglycerides and cholesterol) in the blood can damage your arteries and blood vessels and raise your risk of cardiovascular issues. Lipid panels are therefore used by medical professionals to assess the risk of cardiovascular disorders such as heart disease, myocardial infarction, and stroke in both adults and children. This lipid level is monitored and such circumstances are avoided by lipid profile testing.
Other common names for a lipid profile include:

Lipid profile.

Lipid test.

Cholesterol panel.

Coronary risk panel.

Fasting lipid panel or non-fasting lipid panel.

How to diagnose the increase in your cholesterol?

Lipid panel, often known as lipid profile, is a blood test used to measure cholesterol levels. To determine the extent of your elevated cholesterol and your personal risk of heart attacks, strokes, and blood vessel disorders like DVT, a Lipid Profile test is administered. Usually, elevated cholesterol levels don’t cause any symptoms or indicators.
The process aids in determining and analyzing the blood’s fat content. If there is an excessive amount of cholesterol in the blood, treatment may be started to lower cholesterol levels and lower the risk of heart failure. Typical results include:

Total cholesterol

This is the total amount of cholesterol in your blood. A blood test that measures the quantity of triglycerides and cholesterol in your blood is known as a total cholesterol test, often known as a lipid panel or lipid profile.

LDL cholesterol

The majority of the cholesterol in your body is made up of LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol, frequently referred to as “bad” cholesterol. Your risk of heart disease and stroke increases if your LDL cholesterol levels are high.

HDL cholesterol

High-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, sometimes referred to as “good” cholesterol, returns blood cholesterol to the liver by absorbing it. It is subsequently eliminated from the body via the liver. Your risk of heart disease and stroke can be reduced by having high levels of HDL cholesterol.

VLDL

The form of cholesterol known as very low-density lipoprotein, or VLDL, is often seen in very small levels in blood samples obtained after fasting since it is mostly derived from recently consumed meals. In a fasting sample, a rise in this kind of cholesterol might indicate an issue with lipid metabolism.

Triglycerides

Your blood contains a form of fat called triglycerides, which your body utilises as fuel. When low HDL and/or high LDL cholesterol levels are combined with high triglyceride levels, it can raise your risk of heart attack and other health issues.

Usually, you have to fast for nine to twelve hours before to the test, meaning you may only drink water. You should adhere to your doctor’s advice regarding fasting for certain cholesterol tests. For a number of reasons, your doctor could advise you to have this test. It could be a necessary component of a prescribed course of care or a routine physical examination. It is advised that people have this test performed every four to six years, regardless of their risk assessment.
