Executive Preventative Health Screening

• Kidney function – This tests how well the kidney is filtering the blood plus the overall balance of electrolytes and minerals in your body.

• Liver function tests – This measures enzymes and proteins produced by the liver to give a picture of how well your liver is functioning and detect any liver cell damage.

• Bone health – This profile includes calcium and uric acid: two compounds that give a good indication of your bone health.

• Diabetes – This profile includes glycated haemoglobin to indicate how well controlled your blood sugar levels have been over the past three months. The direct blood glucose level also tells us how high or low your blood sugar level is on the day of the blood test.

• Lipid profile – This measures the amount of good and bad cholesterol in your circulation.

• Iron status – This profile measures both the direct iron levels and ferritin levels. Low iron and ferritin could indicate iron deficiency anaemia which could explain symptoms of tiredness, exhaustion and breathlessness.
  

• Inflammatory marker – C-reactive protein is a marker of inflammation in the body. It can be used to identify infection or monitor the response to treatment for an infection or inflammatory condition.
  

• Vitamin D – Vitamin D helps to regulate the absorption of calcium, phosphate and magnesium in the gut. It is also vital for bone growth and health and can be useful in investigating certain forms of bone disease or gut pathologies.
  

• CA 125 – This is the tumour marker that’s used to detect or monitor ovarian cancer. (Female only)
• Testosterone – Measuring testosterone can help to identify the cause of erectile dysfunction, infertility, premature/delayed puberty or male menopause. (Male only)

• Prostate Screen (Prostate Specific Antigen) – This is a blood test that is used to help detect or monitor prostate cancer. (Male only)

This is a urine test to screen for a wide range of disorders including a urinary tract infection, kidney disease and diabetes. If an abnormality is found, results are analysed in conjunction with results from other diagnostic tests to help identify the underlying problem.
