Laboratory tests and screenings are a standard part of routine and preventive healthcare. These allow them to check how your body is performing, detect irregularities, and open discussions on the prevention measures you should take in the future.
Some of the usual types of testing include complete blood count (CBC), blood enzyme tests, basic metabolic panel, and lipoprotein panels, among others.
These tests and screenings do more than check your overall health, however; you may still need them for many other reasons, including:
- To screen and/or diagnose diseases
Further testing is required if your doctor has any reason to believe that you may have indications of a specific disease or if they would like to confirm or rule out any irregularities detected. - To qualify for a job
Testing and screenings are part of pre-employment requirements. They show that you are fit and capable and, most importantly, help you lower your risk of injuries and allow you to contribute to workplace safety. This is especially critical when you are working in the field of healthcare and health assistance. - To assess disease progression
Testing and screenings done intermittently are a way to monitor and track the progression of a disease. This allows your doctor to assess if the treatment is working and/or alter the approach being undertaken.
