What's this test for?

This test is essential if you're preparing for surgery and need to confirm your body is ready for the procedure. It evaluates your overall health, including blood clotting ability, kidney and liver function, blood cell counts, and screens for infections that could complicate surgery. Doctors require these results to identify any hidden health issues that need attention before your operation to ensure a safe procedure and smooth recovery.

What happens after I get my results?

You'll receive detailed doctor notes in simple language explaining what your pre-operative health markers reveal about your surgical readiness. These notes include personalized recommendations on any areas that may need attention before surgery, such as hydration status, infection risk, or clotting function. You'll also get the standard lab report to share with your surgeon, and you can track these baseline values over time using our trends feature if you need future procedures.

What's included in this test?

This panel measures Complete Blood Count (CBC) including White Blood Cells, Red Blood Cells, Hemoglobin, Hematocrit, Platelets, and Differential; Comprehensive Metabolic Profile including Glucose, Calcium, Sodium, Potassium, Chloride, Carbon Dioxide, BUN, Creatinine, eGFR, Total Protein, Albumin, Bilirubin, Alkaline Phosphatase, ALT, and AST; Prothrombin Time (PT/INR) and Partial Thromboplastin Time (PTT); Complete Urinalysis including Color, Appearance, pH, Specific Gravity, Protein, Glucose, Ketones, Blood, Bilirubin, Nitrite, Leukocyte Esterase, WBC, RBC, Epithelial Cells, Bacteria, Crystals, and Casts; and HIV 1/2 Antigen and Antibodies Fourth Generation test. This comprehensive pre-operative panel evaluates multiple systems critical for surgical safety. The Complete Blood Count checks for anemia and infection, while the Comprehensive Metabolic Profile assesses kidney and liver function, electrolyte balance, and blood sugar levels. The PT/PTT tests measure how well your blood clots to prevent excessive bleeding during surgery, the Urinalysis screens for kidney issues and infections, and the HIV test is a standard pre-surgical screening. Together, these measurements give your surgical team a complete picture of your health status and identify any risks that need to be managed before your procedure.

How should I prepare for this test?

You should fast for 12 hours before your blood draw, which means no food or beverages except water during that time. This fasting requirement ensures accurate glucose and metabolic measurements. The estimated turnaround for results is 3 business days, though if any confirmation testing is needed, it may take a bit longer.

When will I get my results?

Your results are typically available within 3 business days after your sample is collected at the lab. If any of your tests require confirmation testing, the turnaround time may be extended slightly. You'll receive an email notification when your results are ready to view online, giving you time to review them and share with your surgeon before your scheduled procedure.

Who should consider getting this test?

Anyone scheduled for surgery should get this test, as most surgeons and hospitals require pre-operative clearance before proceeding with procedures. It's especially important if you have existing health conditions, take medications that affect bleeding, are over 50, or haven't had recent bloodwork. Your surgeon will use these results to plan your procedure safely and determine if any health issues need to be addressed beforehand.

What symptoms indicate I may need this test?

While this test is required before surgery rather than symptom-driven, certain signs suggest you should discuss pre-operative testing with your doctor sooner. These include easy bruising or bleeding, unexplained fatigue, recent infections, changes in urination, or poorly controlled chronic conditions like diabetes or kidney disease. Identifying these issues before surgery helps prevent complications.

How can I naturally prepare my body for surgery?

In the weeks before surgery, focus on eating a balanced diet rich in protein, vitamins, and minerals to support healing. Stay well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water, get adequate sleep to boost your immune system, and avoid alcohol which can affect liver function and clotting. If you smoke, quitting even a few weeks before surgery significantly reduces complications. Light exercise, if approved by your doctor, can improve circulation and overall strength for recovery.

What is a Comprehensive Metabolic Panel and why does it matter before surgery?

A Comprehensive Metabolic Panel measures 14 different substances in your blood that reveal how well your kidneys and liver are functioning, your electrolyte balance, and your blood sugar levels. Before surgery, this information is critical because anesthesia is processed by your liver and kidneys, electrolyte imbalances can affect heart rhythm during the procedure, and blood sugar control impacts healing and infection risk. Abnormal results may require pre-operative correction.

What happens if my pre-operative results are abnormal?

If any results are outside normal ranges, your surgeon and care team will review them to determine if the surgery can proceed safely or if intervention is needed first. Minor abnormalities might require simple fixes like adjusting medications, improving hydration, or treating an infection. More significant issues may require consultation with specialists, additional testing, or postponing surgery until the condition is stabilized to ensure your safety.
