Pre-Anaesthetic Panel
Know your pet is fit for surgery before the anaesthesia.
8 tests in one package · Sample: 5 mL - serum + whole blood (EDTA)
The Pre-Anaesthetic Panel checks the blood cells, the liver (AST, ALT and ALP), the kidneys (creatinine and BUN), total protein and blood sugar before a pet goes under anaesthesia. The liver and kidneys help the body clear anaesthetic drugs, and anaemia, low protein or low blood sugar can make anaesthesia riskier. These results help your vet judge the risk and plan the anaesthetic.
Tests inside this package
-
A CBC counts the red cells, white cells and platelets in a blood sample and can help show anaemia (low red cells), infection or inflammation (the body's reaction to injury). It suits dogs, cats, cows and buffaloes.
HaematologySample: Whole blood (EDTA)Single test: ₹400
-
AST (also called SGOT) is an enzyme found in liver and muscle cells. Raised levels may point to liver cell damage or muscle injury.
BiochemistrySample: Serum (plain)Single test: ₹180
-
SGPT / ALT is a blood test for an enzyme that leaks out of damaged liver cells. It helps vets look for liver injury in dogs and cats, and is read with other tests in cows and buffaloes.
BiochemistrySample: Serum (plain)Single test: ₹180
-
A serum creatinine test measures a waste product from muscle that the kidneys filter out. A high level may show that the kidneys are not clearing waste well in dogs, cats, cows and buffaloes.
BiochemistrySample: Serum (plain)Single test: ₹180
-
BUN (blood urea nitrogen) measures a waste product of protein that the kidneys remove from the blood. High levels may point to kidney problems or dehydration.
BiochemistrySample: Serum (plain)Single test: ₹180
-
ALP is an enzyme found mainly in the liver, bile ducts and bone. High levels may point to liver or bile duct disease, or to normal bone growth in young animals.
BiochemistrySample: Serum (plain)Single test: ₹180
-
Total protein is the sum of albumin and globulin, the two main protein groups in blood. Abnormal levels can point to dehydration, liver or kidney problems, or infection.
BiochemistrySample: Serum (plain)Single test: ₹180
-
A Glucose Random (RBS) test measures the sugar in the blood at any time of day, with no fasting needed. It can help find diabetes, low sugar and energy problems in dogs, cats, cows and buffaloes.
