Basic Care

Care that everyone deserves

Build your health on a strong foundation! This screening package gives you the essential overview of your body’s health, so you know what to look out for.

Health is not just the absence of disease, but also the balance that our bodies need to prepare themselves to protect against health problems in the long term. The screening package is called Basic Care because it gives everyone access to essential information for their long-term health. During the tests, our specialist internist will review the results, compare them with your personal and family medical history, and then make effective recommendations for any further tests and treatments that may be needed.

Resting ECG examination

This routine test checks the health of the heart by converting its electrical signals into signals that can be interpreted by a specialist. This can determine the number of beats per minute, the regularity of the heartbeats and the heart’s electrical conduction. It detects arrhythmias, conduction abnormalities, possible damage to the heart and problems with oxygenation of the heart muscle. It can even give an idea of the thickness of the walls of the chambers that make up the heart and the problems they have. No preparation is needed, but it is worth taking a few minutes’ rest before the test to allow the elevated heart rate caused by walking or climbing stairs to settle down.

Large lab package

A complete blood count will be done, which will reveal blood glucose levels, sedimentation, LDL and HDL cholesterol levels, thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels, triglyceride, urea, creatinine levels, and liver enzymes (GOT, GPT and Gamma GT). It also detects important physiological parameters such as blood levels of alkaline phosphatase, bilirubin, sodium, potassium and magnesium, proteins, albumin, iron, ferritin, transferrin and blood clotting components (D-dimer). It also includes tests for myocardial damage (TnT), C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (We), creatine kinase (CK), creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB). A complete urinalysis will complement the blood test.

Chest X-ray

This quick scan is used to look for shadows and abnormalities in the chest organs, especially the lungs, heart, large vessels, ribs and diaphragm. This is an effective way of detecting warning signs such as pneumonia, lung tumours, TB, emphysema, pleural effusion, pulmonary congestion due to heart disease, pneumothorax. The assistant performing the scan will ask you to stand shirtless in the X-ray machine and take a deep breath and then hold your breath. The X-ray image will be ready shortly.

Abdominal and pelvic ultrasound

This routine examination is used to detect inflammation, stones and possible malignancies in the liver, bile ducts, gall bladder, pancreas, stomach and intestinal tract, and exaines the structure of the spleen, kidneys, adrenal glands, bladder, uterus, ovaries and prostate. This examination is particularly useful for detecting the causes of stomach and digestive complaints and for early screening of cancer. It is particularly important that ultrasound scans are performed on an empty stomach.

Specialist internal medicine examination

Our doctor will examine you in person before summarising the results of the other tests, help you to establish your personal and family medical history, and then give you a detailed assessment of your health and a written recommendation if he or she thinks further tests are necessary.
