Yes. Add each person's details at booking and each report is issued in their own name. Booking both into the same window is worth doing here because the visit involves two draws about two hours apart: the phlebotomist is already returning for the second sample, so one visit covers the household. Where a parent has type 2 diabetes and an adult child is being screened because of it, this is the usual way to arrange it.

Because it contains both fasting and post-prandial analytes. Blood Glucose Fasting, Insulin-Fasting and the Lipid Profile are drawn after a 10-hour overnight fast. Glucose - Post Prandial Blood Sugar (PPBS) and Insulin PP are drawn about two hours after a normal meal, because their purpose is to show what happens after eating. One draw cannot produce both. Expect roughly two hours between them, within the same visit.

How hard the body is working to keep blood sugar in range. Glucose is the outcome; insulin is the effort. Two people with the same fasting glucose can be producing very different amounts of insulin to reach it, and only one of them is on the way to type 2 diabetes. This package reports a fasting pair, Blood Glucose Fasting with Insulin-Fasting, and an after-meal pair, Glucose - Post Prandial Blood Sugar with Insulin PP.

No. Insulin-Fasting and Insulin PP come back as numbers with reference ranges. The report does not compute HOMA-IR, an insulin resistance index or an insulin-to-glucose ratio, and it does not diagnose insulin resistance by itself. A doctor reads the insulin values against the glucose values from the same draws. HOMA-IR is a calculation applied to those values rather than a separate test, so ask your doctor if you want it worked out.

Not at the earliest stage. It has no urine microalbumin and no albumin-creatinine ratio (ACR). The Complete Urine Analysis here is a dipstick and microscopy examination: its Protein field detects overt proteinuria but not microalbuminuria, which is the entire point of an ACR. The American Diabetes Association, Standards of Care in Diabetes, 2024 recommends an annual urine ACR for everyone already diagnosed with diabetes, because it detects diabetic kidney disease years before serum creatinine or GFR move. If you are already diagnosed, ask your doctor about adding a urine ACR to your annual review. The package does report Creatinine, Urea, Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN) and GFR by MDRD Formula.

It can. Physical activity is one of the strongest influences on how much insulin the body needs, so several months of much less walking or outdoor exercise is a reasonable point at which to measure glucose, insulin and lipids. What this package does not do is detect air quality or any effect of it — no test here measures that, and none is claimed to. It measures blood sugar, the insulin behind it, cholesterol, liver, kidney and thyroid function.

This package contains 82 of that package's parameters and adds Insulin-Fasting, Insulin PP and Glucose - Post Prandial Blood Sugar, giving 85. Nothing is removed. The Full Body Checkup with HbA1c is the lighter annual-screening choice, takes a single draw and costs less, but it reads blood sugar from HbA1c and one fasting value with no after-meal reading and no insulin. Take the Advance Diabetes Package when blood sugar is the actual concern.

HbA1c, or glycosylated haemoglobin, is the proportion of haemoglobin carrying bound glucose. The binding is irreversible and a red cell lives around three months, so the figure reflects average blood sugar across roughly the previous 8 to 12 weeks. This package reports the percentage and a derived Average blood glucose value. The American Diabetes Association Standards of Care in Diabetes, 2024 reads below 5.7% as normal, 5.7 to 6.4% as prediabetes and 6.5% or above as diabetes.

Yes, and it is the limitation most often overlooked. HbA1c depends on red cell lifespan, so anaemia, recent blood loss, a transfusion, iron deficiency and haemoglobin variants such as thalassemia trait can all move the figure up or down independently of blood sugar. Over 50% of Indian women aged 15 to 49 are anaemic (NFHS-5, 2019-21). That is why the result is read alongside the Complete Blood Count with ESR and the Blood Picture - Peripheral Smear Examination in this same package.

10 hours overnight before the first draw. Plain water only, and drinking it helps — a well-hydrated vein is easier to draw. No tea, coffee, milk, juice or sugar in the fasting window. The fast is needed for Blood Glucose Fasting, Insulin-Fasting and the Lipid Profile. After that draw you eat a normal meal, and the second draw follows about two hours later for Glucose - Post Prandial Blood Sugar and Insulin PP.

That is a question for the doctor who prescribed them, and the tablets should not be stopped without being told to. It matters here more than in most packages: insulin or a sulfonylurea taken before the fasting draw changes both the glucose and the insulin reading, so the report partly reflects the medicine. Tell the doctor the test includes fasting and post-meal glucose with fasting and post-meal insulin, and follow their instruction on the morning dose.

A qualified pathologist spreads a slide of your blood, stains it, reads it under a microscope and reports Red Blood Cells, White Blood Cells, Platelets, Hemoparasites and a written IMPRESSION. It is the only part of the report written in sentences by a person rather than produced as a number. What it adds over an automated count is morphology: microcytic cells suggesting iron deficiency, macrocytic cells B12 or folate deficiency, sickle-shaped cells sickle cell disease, blast cells that may point to leukaemia, and clumped platelets that explain a count flagged as critically low.

Two reasons. The red cell picture can change in long-standing diabetes, so the smear is read alongside the CBC rather than instead of it, and because anaemia distorts HbA1c, a pathologist indicating the type of anaemia is what makes the HbA1c safe to read. Its Hemoparasites finding also matters where dengue and malaria are endemic across Delhi NCR. It cannot be automated — each slide is prepared and read by hand — so it is the line item cheaper packages drop.

Yes. Slots cover Saket, Greater Kailash, Hauz Khas, Vasant Kunj, Lajpat Nagar, Defence Colony, Malviya Nagar, Dwarka, Janakpuri, Rohini, Pitampura, Mayur Vihar, Preet Vihar, Kalkaji and New Friends Colony among others. A trained phlebotomist takes the fasting blood and urine samples at your door and returns about two hours after the meal for the second draw, in the same visit window. Samples travel to the laboratory in temperature-controlled conditions.

Digital reports arrive within 24 hours of the final sample, with all 85 parameters, reference ranges and flagged abnormal values. Your sample is processed at a NABL-accredited laboratory in our network. NABL accreditation is granted to individual laboratories after evaluation of their equipment, processes and personnel; it is not a company-wide certification, and HealthVas does not claim to hold it.
