Need a blood test? We choose a reliable commercial laboratory. Where can I get a blood test for a fee? Choosing a laboratory diagnostic center Where you can get a general analysis

A biochemical blood test is an important study that allows doctors to study the cellular composition of the blood to identify changes in its parameters, which will help determine the presence of certain diseases. A timely blood test will help the doctor identify pockets of inflammation in the body even before the first symptoms of disease appear.

Where to do a biochemical blood test in Moscow and how to prepare for it?

Preparing for this procedure is not difficult. Blood is donated on an empty stomach - many specialized laboratories therefore begin work at seven in the morning, so that patients can get tested before work and have time to have breakfast. It is recommended to avoid fatty, salty, fatty foods, alcoholic drinks, energy drinks, heavy foods, strong coffee and tea 12 hours before donating blood. It is better to avoid intense physical activity and severe stress the day before, as these actions can distort the real picture of the tests. It is only permissible to drink pure mineral water.

To conduct a biochemical analysis, the doctor takes blood from a vein - usually located in the area of ​​the elbow. Before this, the sampling area is treated with alcohol, after which a syringe with a long needle or its more modern versions is used. As a rule, the test result will be ready within a day after the test. Some private clinics are ready to offer the result and interpretation of a biochemical blood test within a few hours.

Patients can donate blood for biochemical analysis in many laboratories in the city, as well as in medical centers collected on our portal. Unfortunately, not all clinics are ready to offer this service, so you need to pay special attention to this point when choosing a medical institution.

What does a standard biochemical blood test show?

During the diagnostic process, the doctor studies many important indicators, on the basis of which pathological deviations in activity are identified. Among them the following can be noted:

  • Blood glucose - allows you to diagnose diabetes mellitus and select the optimal therapy for further treatment, evaluate the effectiveness of already prescribed procedures.
  • Some liver dysfunctions and endocrine diseases lead to low glucose levels. Normal values ​​depend on the age of the patient.
  • General bilirubin is a special yellow blood pigment formed during the breakdown of hemoglobin, cytochromes and myoglobin. An increase in its amount is characteristic of damage to liver cells, impaired bile outflow and increased breakdown of red blood cells.
  • Normal values ​​of total bilirubin: 3.4 - 17.1 µmol/l.
  • Total protein - the indicator reflects the amount of proteins, a decrease in which is characteristic of some kidney and liver diseases.

An increase is present in infectious and inflammatory processes, blood diseases. Normal values ​​for total protein: 66-83 g/l.

Cholesterol is a blood lipid that comes from food and is also synthesized by liver cells.

  • Normal cholesterol levels: 3.2-5.6 mmol/l.
  • Creatinine - plays an important role in tissue energy metabolism. Its presence and concentration in the blood is of greatest importance in the diagnosis of kidney diseases, since it must be completely excreted by the kidneys. Normal creatinine values: men - 62 – 115 µmol/l; women - 53 - 97 µmol/l.
  • The results of the biochemical analysis also contain many other points that are of great importance for the doctor and his diagnosis.
  • In all Medok clinics you can take tests of almost all popular types. Including:

general urine analysis;

analysis for pinworm and helminth eggs for children;

cholesterol, calcium and glucose testing for older people;

  • analysis for the presence of sexually transmitted diseases (for women and men), and many others.
  • We are a licensed medical institution where all tests undergo quality control. The Medok clinics in Moscow and Moscow Region employ experienced, highly qualified medical personnel. Clinical studies are carried out in laboratories equipped with modern technology. With us you can be sure that any analysis will be performed accurately.
  • Tests in Moscow for women, men and children
  • Our clinics in Moscow and the Moscow region group tests into several categories for ease of search. Laboratories offer clinical studies of the following groups:
  • tests for pregnant women,
  • gynecological,
  • tests for older people,
  • for men,
  • for prostate-specific antigen, as well as general blood and urine tests.

The widest range of tests is in the group for pregnant women, which is not surprising, given our specialization. Pregnant women can donate from us:

  • blood group test;
  • general and clinical blood test;
  • tests for various types of antigens to viruses;
  • analysis for beta hCG, D dimer and others - more than 15 types in total.

Get tested close to home or work

Often, patients, in order to get tested in Moscow or the Moscow region, using the services of a reliable laboratory, need to go to the other end of the city where it is located. Having to stand in traffic jams for hours or waste time on the subway is not a pleasant prospect.

Everyone tries to find a medical facility closer to their place of residence or work, where they can undergo a high-quality clinical examination. It is for this purpose that the clinics of the Medok network are located in such a way that people from any area of ​​the city can quickly get to us for testing.

In addition, we keep prices at an affordable level, guaranteeing decent quality results. The Medok Clinic is one of the few institutions in the capital where you can get tested inexpensively and in a comfortable environment. The delivery is organized in such a way that you do not waste time waiting in line.

Comprehensive analyzes - saving time and money

Most often, one analysis does not provide an accurate picture by which a doctor can determine the presence of pathology or assess the condition of the patient’s organs and systems. It needs to be complemented by others. In most cases, the optimal set of analyzes contains from 3 to 10 or more different types. It is expensive to donate each of them separately; in addition, repeated sampling of blood and other materials brings discomfort. Medoc network clinics offer complexes of tests: you contact us once and receive all the results at once. This saves your time and money (the complex is cheaper than individual tests).

Analyzes as part of comprehensive surveys

It often happens that the results of an analysis (and even several) do not provide complete information for making an accurate diagnosis or identifying the causes of the disease. In this case, it is optimal to undergo a comprehensive examination, based on the results of which you will receive a detailed consultation with a doctor. The complex usually includes several different tests and one or more examinations: ultrasound, ECG, examination by a specialist, and the like. Together, all these services cost less than if you bought them separately, but most importantly, they allow you to accurately diagnose the disease and assess your health.

Clinics of the Medok network in Moscow and Moscow Region offer several types of such comprehensive examinations, the prices and composition of which you can see on this page. This, for example, is a comprehensive health check of the expectant mother or father, preparation for medical examination, checking the cardiovascular system, and others.

LabQuest performs more 2000 laboratory research

You can get tested in Moscow and regions of Russia at a convenient time. At your request (written application), we send the results by email. We will notify you when the test results are ready via SMS. The latest equipment ensures high speed and accuracy of laboratory research. You can take tests in comfortable conditions without an appointment.

General clinical studies allow one to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the physical, chemical and microscopic characteristics of the biomaterial being studied. During the study, the properties of blood, sputum, urine, feces, discharge from the genitourinary organs, cerebrospinal fluid and other physiological fluids are analyzed. General clinical studies are the most frequently prescribed laboratory tests to begin a diagnostic search and conduct medical examination. "LabQuest Laboratory" offers to take a blood test and other biomaterial for general clinical examination. You can take blood tests at any medical center in the network.

Each organism is unique in its set of antigens. An individual set of antigens determines many characteristics of a person, including blood type and its Rh factor. Immunohematological studies are carried out if hospitalization or surgery is planned. Testing is urgently necessary before blood transfusion, tissue or internal organ transplantation. Also, immunohematological studies are of high clinical importance during the preparation and management of pregnancy.

During hemostasiological studies, the state of the blood coagulation system is assessed and disturbances in its functioning are identified. It is necessary to take blood tests during preparation for pregnancy, in the presence of coagulation pathologies, vitamin K deficiency, antiphospholipid syndrome and a number of other diseases. Timely identification of problems in the hemostatic system and adequate treatment helps to avoid the development of serious complications. Pathological conditions include both a decrease (hypocoagulation) and an increase in coagulability (hypercoagulation).

Why do biochemical blood tests take place? Blood biochemistry is aimed at identifying problems in the functioning of internal organs, assessing the metabolism of proteins, lipids and carbohydrates, and determining the body's need for microelements. It is recommended to undergo a preventive examination annually to monitor your health status. Also, a biochemical blood test is prescribed for patients who have suffered a somatic or infectious disease. During the study, a number of parameters are determined: glucose, total protein, cholesterol, triglycerides, creatinine, urea, enzymes and some others.

Hormones are highly active biological substances that are produced by the endocrine glands. Hormones regulate metabolic processes, ensure the body's response to external influences, control growth, development and aging. When there is dysfunction of one or another organ responsible for the production of hormones, the overall hormonal balance is disrupted. Hormonal blood tests are prescribed by an endocrinologist, neurologist, gynecologist, urologist, gastroenterologist and other specialized specialists.

Tumor markers are proteins secreted by malignant cells in significant quantities. Tumor marker studies are used in clinical practice for differential diagnosis, monitoring the progress of treatment, assessing its effectiveness, and identifying relapses. We offer tests in Moscow for markers of malignant neoplasms of various locations (thyroid, prostate, pancreas and mammary glands, gastrointestinal tract, lungs and other organs). The results of laboratory tests for tumor markers are not the only criterion taken into account by the attending physician when making a diagnosis, but can be used as additional studies in combination with other diagnostic methods.

Autoimmune diseases are manifested by the production of antibodies that cause inflammation in the body’s own tissues and destroy them. Autoimmune pathologies occur in approximately 5% of the population. These diseases develop in women somewhat more often than in men. The pathology can involve the tissues of one or more organs, causing various clinical symptoms. Laboratory tests for autoimmune diseases are used to diagnose them, select an effective treatment method, and make a prognosis.

To make a microbiological diagnosis, a bacteriological examination is prescribed to isolate bacteria and study their properties. To properly undergo bacteriological tests, you need to consult a doctor.

The Ministry of Health, according to which patients during a medical examination can only donate blood to determine glucose levels and a couple of other indicators. Many public clinics no longer accept tests to determine hormonal levels and biochemistry. Thus, the patient must pay for everything, who will now go to private laboratories. The Village compared prices for standard tests at six network health care companies and then asked experts why some measures cost more than others and take longer to study.

We compared prices for tests in the following clinics: Invitro, Citylab, Hemotest, ArchiMed, KDL and CMD - these are companies with the longest history of existence on the market or the most popular and have a good reputation according to word of mouth . In them, we studied the prices for the most common tests, preparation time and the form of notification of results.

Results

Most of the most expensive tests are from the medical company Invitro. For a clinical and biochemical blood test you will have to pay 919 and 2,119 rubles, respectively, for a test for hepatitis A - from 919 to 1,099 rubles, and for an analysis of sex hormones - 5,634 rubles. But Invitro has the widest network of clinics in Moscow.

For the determination of antibodies and HIV antigen, the largest amount, 870 rubles, will be charged at Hemotest. But in this network the cost of urgent analyzes increases by only 1.3 times (in others - by one and a half to two times).

The cheapest tests are from the ArchiMed company. However, in Moscow the company is represented by one laboratory, which may affect the number of people wanting to save money, which means there may be queues there.

What determines the cost of analysis?

The price of the analysis includes the cost of reagents, which are also purchased in foreign countries, the cost of depreciation of devices, wages for medical personnel, and rental of premises. “Russian reagents are sometimes cheaper than their foreign counterparts, but, unfortunately, they are not always comparable in quality. The higher the qualifications of the personnel, the more expensive they are and, therefore, the higher the price of the analysis,” says Elena Tivanova, head of the analytical planning group, leading expert at the Center for Molecular Diagnostics of the Central Research Institute of Epidemiology of Rospotrebnadzor. Private laboratories also spend money on maintaining a marketing service, Internet sites, their own treatment rooms and call centers. The cost also depends on the demand for the analysis among patients.

There are popular tests, such as biochemical or clinical, whose results are usually ready the next day. There are rare tests. For them, in order not to use reagents several times, the research time is increased.

In laboratories, the collection of biomaterial is usually paid separately. You can take several tests by paying only once for taking blood from a vein. The material for analysis is taken by the treatment nurse at the clinic. A separate fee for taking biomaterial is a fee for her labor.

What determines the accuracy of the analysis?

The accuracy of the analysis depends 50% on preanalytics, that is, the stage before donating blood, says Larisa Samokhodskaya, head of the laboratory diagnostics department at the Lomonosov Moscow State University Medical Research and Educational Center, a doctor of the highest category, associate professor, candidate of medical sciences. Some tests are taken on an empty stomach; for some, there are prohibitions on certain medications. Before analysis, it is necessary to clarify the requirements, although they are usually posted on the laboratory’s website.

The results may be inaccurate due to irregularities in the delivery of samples: according to Elena Tivanova, here “it is important to observe the correctness of sample transportation - delivery time, correct temperature conditions, absence of physical damage and other external factors.” If it takes five to six hours to deliver the material, then you can argue about the reliability of the results.

It is better to donate blood in the first half of the day so that it is delivered to the laboratory on the same day. But don't be the first to get in line. For example, if the blood is left in a test tube at room temperature for more than three hours to determine the glucose level, then the glucose level will begin to drop sharply, explains Larisa Samokhodskaya. This will significantly affect the results.

What determines the speed of analysis?

The time it takes to receive test results depends on their rarity and the complexity of the procedure. “The time it takes to complete a study consists of many factors, and the main one is the duration of the analytical process itself, which, depending on the substance being determined and the automation of the process, can be several minutes or several days. The time of delivery of the biomaterial from the point of its collection to the laboratory also contributes, and it can be carried out from a neighboring medical office, from another district of the city or from another city,” comments Tatyana Ponkratova, head of the Invitro expert group.

A service that almost every medical laboratory provides is immediate results. To obtain quick results, they use “dry chemistry” technology - it does not require diluting reagents or using containers. These are test strips that help to perform an express procedure, but such a system is more expensive than a regular one.

Not all tests are available in the near future. “There are indicators that can be done simply, quickly and inexpensively, there are analyzes consisting of two stages of an hour each, and it is not possible to speed up the process,” says Larisa Samokhodskaya. In this case, it will not be possible to get an analysis within an hour or two.

For example, a rare test for the level of dihydrotestosterone (DHT - responsible for the development of the male reproductive system) takes up to three days. According to Samokhodskaya, “laboratories collect sera over a period of time, which ultimately can help reduce the cost of the study per patient.” Some companies send the material for such analyzes to specialized laboratories, which also takes time. This is why DHT is so expensive and takes a long time.

The blood test procedure involves studying a huge number of different parameters. Therefore, if your doctor recommends that you get tested, do not refuse.

A blood test may be ordered several times to determine changes in the current state of the body or evaluate the effectiveness of treatment.

Getting tested in our clinic is very simple, and reliable results will not take long to arrive.

Blood tests are divided into 3 main groups:

  • Clinical analysis. A general blood test, which allows you to evaluate the number and ratio of leukocytes, erythrocytes and platelets, identify hemoglobin content and consider the leukocyte formula and ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate). A clinical blood test can identify inflammatory processes, anemia and other diseases.
  • Biochemical analysis. A blood test aimed at identifying functional abnormalities in the functioning of specific organs and systems. The diagnostic method allows you to identify an imbalance of microelements, kidney and liver diseases, the presence of rheumatic and inflammatory processes, as well as assess the stage of the disease.
  • Hormonal analysis. A blood test to determine the content of thyroid hormones, sex hormones: testosterone, prolactin, progesterone, FSH, LH and others. This diagnostic method allows you to identify diseases of the reproductive system, thyroid gland, and other organs and systems.
