Description
A Pre-Operative Blood Test Panel is a critical step before undergoing any cosmetic or elective surgery. These tests assess your overall health, identify any underlying medical conditions, and ensure that your blood clots properly—helping to minimize risks during and after the procedure.
Why It Matters
Before cosmetic surgery, it's important to confirm:
- Stable Health: Ensures that your body is prepared for surgery.
- Organ Function: Verifies proper kidney, liver, and other organ functions.
- No Anemia or Infections: Ensures that you’re free from conditions that may complicate the surgery.
- Normal Blood Clotting: Reduces the risk of excessive bleeding during and after the procedure.
Biomarkers Included
- Complete Blood Count (CBC):
- Evaluates red and white blood cells and platelets to detect signs of anemia, infection, or blood disorders.
- Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP):
- Assesses kidney and liver function, electrolyte balance, and blood sugar levels. Vital for anesthesia safety and post-surgery recovery.
- Prothrombin Time (PT) & Partial Thromboplastin Time (PTT):
- Measures the time it takes for your blood to clot. Abnormal results may increase the risk of bleeding during surgery.
