Here’s why each test is important:
- Complete Blood Count (CBC):
- Assesses overall health by measuring red and white blood cells, hemoglobin, and platelets.
- Helps detect anemia, infections, and clotting disorders.
- Hepatitis B:
- Checks for Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, which can be transmitted to the baby during childbirth.
- Early detection helps in planning preventive measures, such as vaccination for the newborn.
- Hepatitis C:
- Identifies Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, which can affect liver function and may be passed to the baby.
- Treatment options can be considered to prevent complications.
- HIV:
- Screening for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is crucial to prevent mother-to-child transmission.
- Timely intervention with antiretroviral therapy can reduce transmission risks.
- Urine Routine Examination (Urine RE):
- Checks for infections, protein, and glucose levels in urine.
- Helps detect urinary tract infections (UTIs), diabetes, or preeclampsia risks.
- Blood Sugar (Glucose):
- Monitors blood sugar levels to check for gestational diabetes.
- Managing blood sugar is crucial to avoid complications such as macrosomia (large baby) and preterm birth.
- Liver Function Tests (LFTs):
- Evaluates liver health and detects any liver disorders that might affect pregnancy, such as cholestasis.
- Important in monitoring conditions like preeclampsia.
- Renal Function Tests (RFTs):
- Assesses kidney function to ensure they are working properly during pregnancy.
- Helps detect conditions like preeclampsia and gestational hypertension.
- Lipid Profile:
- Monitors cholesterol and triglyceride levels, as pregnancy can affect lipid metabolism.
- Helps in managing cardiovascular health during pregnancy.
- Beta hCG (B HCG):
- Confirms pregnancy and helps track its progress in the early stages.
- Abnormal levels can indicate potential pregnancy complications, such as ectopic pregnancy.
- Blood Group:
- Determines the mother’s blood type and Rh factor to prevent Rh incompatibility with the baby.
- If the mother is Rh-negative and the baby is Rh-positive, preventive measures can be taken to avoid complications.
These tests provide crucial information to ensure a healthy pregnancy and allow healthcare providers to take early actions if any complications arise.
