Sample Required:
This surgical profile checkup requires blood samples for various tests. Blood is typically collected through venipuncture, which involves inserting a needle into a vein, often in the arm.
Test Time:
The time required to complete all the tests in this package may vary depending on the lab’s workflow. Generally, it may take a few hours to a day to complete the tests.
Test Normal Range:
Below are the typical normal ranges for some of the tests included in this package. Please note that these values can vary slightly between labs, and your healthcare provider will interpret your results accordingly.
Serum Creatinine:
- Normal creatinine levels can vary based on age, gender, and muscle mass. Your healthcare provider will interpret the results.
Complete Blood Culture (CBC):
- CBC includes various parameters like hemoglobin, white blood cell count, and platelet count, each with its own normal range.
Blood Glucose:
- Normal blood glucose levels vary depending on whether the test is fasting (typically less than 100 mg/dL) or random (usually less than 140 mg/dL).
Random Blood Sugar (RBS):
- A normal RBS level is typically less than 140 mg/dL.
HIV I & II Antibody Rapid:
- This test checks for antibodies to HIV-1 and HIV-2. A positive result requires further confirmation.
Hepatitis C Virus Antibody (Anti HCV):
- A non-reactive result indicates no antibodies to the hepatitis C virus. A reactive result requires further testing.
Bleeding Time and Clotting Time:
- Normal ranges may vary, and your healthcare provider will interpret these results.
Hepatitis B Surface Antigen (HBsAg):
- A non-reactive result is normal. A reactive result may indicate hepatitis B infection.
Blood Grouping and Rh Typing:
- This test determines your blood type, such as A, B, AB, or O, and your Rh factor (positive or negative).

FAQs:
Q1: What is the significance of serum creatinine in this profile?
A: Serum creatinine assesses kidney function. Abnormal levels may indicate kidney problems.
Q2: Why is the HIV antibody test included in a surgical profile?
A: HIV testing is essential to ensure the safety of surgical procedures and protect healthcare workers from potential exposure.
Q3: What does the hepatitis C antibody test detect?
A: It checks for antibodies to the hepatitis C virus, which could indicate a current or past infection.
Q4: Why is blood grouping and Rh typing important before surgery?
A: Knowing your blood type and Rh factor is vital for blood transfusion compatibility during surgery.
Q5: What are the implications of a reactive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) result?
A: A reactive result may indicate a current hepatitis B infection, and further evaluation is needed for diagnosis and treatment.
