Blood testing is a laboratory procedure performed on a blood sample taken from a vein in the arm using a hypodermic needle or a finger prick. The blood samples are subject to a series of timely procedures to analyze the various chemical contents and markers in the blood.
Blood testingis mostly done to track certain diseases and illnesses. They also contribute to the verification of organ function and the explanation of how well treatments work. This helps physicians determine the wellness of organs that are critical to the appropriate body function.
- If your blood doesn’t clot properly – it’s a haematologist who will conduct the blood tests, confirm if you have haemophilia, and offer treatment.
- When there’s an outbreak of infection in a hospital, it’s a medical microbiologist or infection doctor who will advise the infection control teams and work hard to contain it.
- For those having trouble getting pregnant – it’s a reproductive scientist who will investigate, diagnose and, where possible, treat any infertility issues.
