Lab Tests From Home

Pathological Test Services At Home (Mentioned in our List), also known as home sample collection for diagnostic tests, bring the convenience of medical testing to an individual's residence. This service is particularly useful for those who may have difficulty visiting a diagnostic centre or laboratory due to health issues, mobility constraints, or other reasons. Here's how home-based pathological test services generally work

  • Scheduling: Individuals can schedule a home visit for sample collection by contacting a diagnostic service provider. This can often be done through phone calls, online platforms, or mobile applications.
  • Appointment Confirmation: The service provider confirms the appointment, providing details about the date and time when the healthcare professional will visit the individual's home.
  • Sample Collection: On the scheduled date, a trained phlebotomist or healthcare professional arrives at the individual's home to collect the necessary biological samples. This could include blood, urine, saliva, or other specimens, depending on the tests ordered.
  • Documentation: The healthcare professional ensures proper documentation, labelling, and handling of the collected samples to maintain accuracy and integrity.
  • Transportation to the Laboratory: After sample collection, the specimens are transported to a diagnostic laboratory for analysis. The samples are handled following standardized protocols to ensure accurate and reliable test results.
  • Laboratory Analysis: In the laboratory, trained technicians conduct the required tests using specialized equipment. The results are generated and reviewed by qualified pathologists.
  • Report Generation: Once the laboratory analysis is complete, the individual receives a detailed report of the test results. In some cases, the results may be accessible online or through a mobile app.
  • Consultation and Follow-up: Depending on the test results, individuals may have the option to consult with a healthcare professional to discuss the findings, receive guidance, and discuss any necessary follow-up actions.
  • Common diagnostic tests that can be conducted through home sample collection include blood tests (complete blood count, lipid profile, etc.), urine tests, and certain genetic tests
