Individual tests

17-OH-Progesterone test is used for screening and diagnosing Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH).
The test measures a hormone called hCG, produced during pregnancy by the placenta and found in the blood and urine. Testing for hCG can be done as early as ten days after conception to determine if you are pregnant. Measuring hCG can also help identify potential complications.
This test measures the time it takes for the earlobe to stop bleeding after a vascular (blood vessel) wound is created with a blood lancet. It is performed in preoperative patients receiving anticoagulants or with suspected coagulation disorders.
Creatine kinase (CK) is an enzyme that occurs naturally in your muscle cells, while CK-MB mainly occurs in your heart's muscle cells. Damage to heart muscle cells causes CK-MB to leak into your blood. This test helps detect how much CK-MB enzyme is in your blood. If there’s more CK-MB in your blood than there should be, it can be a sign you’ve had a heart attack.
Creatine Kinase is an enzyme found in heart, brain, and skeletal muscle. This test detects muscle inflammation or damage due to muscle disorders.
D-dimer is a protein fragment produced when a blood clot dissolves in your body. Blood clots prevent you from losing too much blood when injured. Normally, your body will dissolve the clot once your injury heals. With a clotting disorder, clots form when you aren't injured or don't dissolve when they should. These conditions are serious and potentially life-threatening. A D-dimer test can show if you have one of these conditions.
First-trimester screening has three parts, an ultrasound test for fetal nuchal translucency (NT), PAPP-A, and hCG. When used together, NT screening and maternal blood tests can better determine potential birth defects, such as Down syndrome, Edward syndrome, or Patau syndrome. Amniocentesis or other ultrasound procedures may also be necessary for accurate diagnosis if the results are abnormal.
