What is Biochemistry?
Biochemistry is the study of chemical processes and substances that occur within living organisms. In the context of clinical pathology, it involves the analysis of bodily fluids, primarily blood and urine, to detect abnormalities, diagnose diseases, and monitor health conditions. The results from biochemistry tests are crucial for guiding treatment decisions and assessing overall health.
Our Biochemistry Services
At Sobti Nursing Home, we offer a wide range of biochemistry tests that help evaluate various bodily functions and identify potential health issues. Our services include, but are not limited to:
- Metabolic Panels:
Comprehensive metabolic panels provide insights into the body’s chemical balance and metabolism. These panels include tests for glucose, electrolytes, kidney function, and liver enzymes, which are vital for assessing metabolic health. - Lipid Profile:
The lipid profile test measures cholesterol levels and triglycerides in the blood, helping to evaluate the risk of cardiovascular diseases. Early detection of dyslipidemia allows for timely interventions to prevent serious health complications. - Liver Function Tests:
These tests assess the health of the liver by measuring the levels of enzymes, proteins, and substances produced or excreted by the liver. Abnormal results may indicate liver disease or damage, guiding further evaluation and treatment. - Kidney Function Tests:
Kidney function tests, including serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN), help evaluate how well the kidneys are filtering waste from the blood. These tests are essential for detecting kidney disorders and monitoring patients with existing renal conditions. - Thyroid Function Tests:
Our laboratory conducts comprehensive thyroid function tests to assess the levels of thyroid hormones. These tests are crucial for diagnosing and managing thyroid disorders, such as hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism. - Hormonal Assays:
We offer various hormonal assays to evaluate endocrine function. These tests measure levels of hormones such as insulin, cortisol, and sex hormones, providing valuable information about metabolic and reproductive health.
