LAB TESTS & BLOODWORK @ La Romaine Family Medical & Dental Centre

• Cancer Screening Tests
  Cancer screening tests are designed to find cancers at an early stage when they are more treatable.
• Cardiac Enzyme Tests
  Cardiac enzyme studies measure the levels of enzymes and proteins that are linked with injury of the heart muscle. The test checks for the proteins troponin I (TnI) and troponin T (TnT). The test might also check for an enzyme called creatine kinase (CK).
• CBC (Complete Blood Count)
  The complete blood count (CBC) is a group of tests that evaluate the cells that circulate in blood, including red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs), and platelets (PLTs). The CBC can evaluate your overall health and detect a variety of diseases and conditions, such as infections, anemia and leukemia.
• Drug Test
  Testing for drugs including Opioids, Benzodiazepines, Amphetamines, Barbiturates and Individual drugs.
• ECG (Electrocardiodiagram)
  An electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) records the electrical signal from your heart to check for different heart conditions. Electrodes are placed on your chest to record your heart’s electrical signals, which cause your heart to beat. The signals are shown as waves on an attached computer monitor or printer.
• ECHO (Echocardiodiagram)
  An echocardiogram, or “echo”, is a scan used to look at the heart and nearby blood vessels. It’s a type of ultrasound scan, which means a small probe is used to send out high-frequency sound waves that create echoes when they bounce off different parts of the body.
• HbA1C Test
  The hemoglobin A1c test tells you your average level of blood sugar over the past 2 to 3 months.
• Holter 24 hour
  Twenty-four hour Holter monitoring is a continuous test to record your heart’s rate and rhythm for 24 hours. You wear the Holter monitor for 12 to 48 hours as you go about your normal daily routine. This device has electrodes and electrical leads exactly like a regular EKG, but it has fewer leads. It can pick up not only your heart’s rate and rhythm but also when you feel chest pains or exhibit symptoms of an irregular heartbeat, or arrhythmia.
• Lipid Profile Test
  This is a complete cholesterol. It is used to measure the amount of “good” and “bad” cholesterol and triglycerides, a type of fat, in your blood.
• Liver Function Test
  Liver function tests are blood tests used to help diagnose and monitor liver disease or damage. They measure the levels of certain enzymes and proteins in your blood.
• RFT Renal Function Test
  This test is a profile of biochemistry blood tests that are useful to assess the renal function, and includes several parameters such as Creatinine, Potassium, Phosphorous, Uric Acid, Chloride, Sodium, Blood Urea, Blood Urea Nitrogen, and Calcium.
• Uroflometry
  Uroflowmetry is a test that measures the volume of urine released from the body, the speed with which it is released, and how long the release takes.
