Preventive Care
- Includes health services like screening, check-ups and patient counseling that are used to prevent
illness, disease and other health problems
- Covers the primary and secondary level of disease prevention

UAEs Leading Causes of Mortality (World Health Organization, 2004)


- Non-communicable diseases:
A. Endocrine diseases
B. Digestive diseases (Peptic Ulcer Disease, Liver cirrhosis, Appendicitis)
C. Genito-Urinary diseases (Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, Nephritis, Nephrosis)
D. Diabetes Mellitus

Heart Disease, Cerebrovascular Disease, Inflammatory Heart Disease)

Blood-Related Diseases
1. Full Blood Count
- broad screening test to check for such disorders as anaemia, infection, and many other
diseases
- a panel of tests that examines different parts of the blood and includes the following:

A. White blood cell (WBC)


- count of the actual number of white blood cells per volume of blood. Both
increases and decreases can be significant

B. White blood cell differential


- looks at the types of white blood cells present
- classifies a person's white blood cells into each type: neutrophils, lymphocytes,
monocytes, eosinophils, and basophils

C. Red blood cell (RBC)


- count of the actual number of red blood cells per volume of blood
- both increases and decreases can point to abnormal conditions

D. Haemoglobin
- measures the amount of oxygen-carrying protein in the blood

E. Haematocrit
- measures the amount of space red blood cells take up in the blood

F. Platelet count
- number of platelets in a given volume of blood. Both increases and decreases
can point to bleeding or bone marrow disorders

G. Mean platelet volume (MPV)


- machine-calculated measurement of the average size of platelets
- new platelets are larger, and an increased MPV occurs when increased
numbers of platelets are being produced

H. Mean corpuscular volume (MCV)


- measurement of the average size of your RBCs
- elevated when your RBCs are larger than normal (macrocytic), for example in
anaemia caused by vitamin B12 deficiency or folic acid deficiency
- decreased if the RBCs are smaller than normal (microcytic), which may indicate
iron deficiency anaemia, inflammation or occasionally thalassaemias

I. Mean corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH)


- calculation of the amount of oxygen-carrying haemoglobin inside your RBCs
- macrocytic RBCs are larger than either normal or microcytic RBCs, they would
also tend to have higher MCH values

J. Mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration (MCHC)


- calculation of the concentration of haemoglobin inside the RBCs
- decreased MCHC values (hypochromia) indicates the haemoglobin is
abnormally diluted inside the red cells, such as in iron deficiency anaemia, long
standing inflammation or thalassaemia
- increased MCHC values (hyperchromia) indicates the haemoglobin is
abnormally concentrated inside the red cells, such as in hereditary or
autoimmune spherocytosis

K. Red cell distribution width (RDW)


- calculation of the variation in the size of your RBCs
- in iron deficiency or pernicious anaemia, the amount of variation (anisocytosis)
in RBC size (along with variation in shape poikilocytosis) causes an increase
in the RDW.

Musculoskeletal Diseases
1. Uric Acid
- chemical produced when your body breaks down foods that contain organic compounds
called purines
- high levels of uric acid indicates gout, a common form of arthritis

2. Vitamin D Level
- essential for promotes calcium absorption in the gut and maintains adequate serum calcium
and phosphate concentrations to enable normal mineralization of bone
- play a role in the prevention and treatment of a number of different conditions, including
type1 and type 2 diabetes, hypertension, glucose intolerance, and multiple sclerosis

Endocrine Diseases
1. Thyroid Stimulating Hormone
- the test of choice for evaluating thyroid function and/or symptoms of a thyroid disorder,
including hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism

Digestive Diseases
1. Abdominal/Pelvic Ultrasound
- imaging test used to look at organs in the abdomen, including the liver, gallbladder, spleen,
pancreas, kidneys, the blood vessels that lead to some of these organs, such as the inferior
vena cava and aorta

2. Liver Function Test


- help determine the health status of the liver by measuring the levels of proteins, liver
enzymes, or bilirubin in your blood
A. Alanine Transaminase (ALT)
- used by your body to metabolize protein
- released into the blood if the liver is damaged or not functioning properly
- high result can be a sign of liver damage

B. Aspartate Transaminase (AST)


- enzyme found in several parts of your body, including the heart, liver, and muscle
- not specific for liver damage and thus usually measured together with ALT
- released into the bloodstream when the liver is damaged
- high result might indicate a problem with the liver or muscles

C. Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP)


- enzyme found in your bones, bile ducts, and liver
- high levels may indicate liver damage, blockage of the bile ducts, or a bone disease

D. Albumin
- measures how well the liver produces the protein responsible for maintaining osmotic
pressure in the blood
- A low result indicates that the liver isnt functioning properly

E. Total Bilirubin
- helps determine the cause of jaundice and/or help diagnose conditions such as liver
disease, hemolytic anemia, and blockage of the bile ducts
a. Direct Bilirubin (Conjugated)
- formed in the liver when sugars are attached to bilirubin
- enters the bile and passes from the liver to the small intestines and is
eventually eliminated in the stool
- not normally present in the blood
b. Indirect (Unconjugated Bilirubin)
- product of the heme part breakdown of hemoglobin
- binds to proteins and comes back to the liver
- small amounts may be present in the blood

Diabetes Mellitus
1. Fasting Blood Glucose
- measures the amount of a sugar called glucose in a sample of blood
- used to screen for diabetes and to monitor people who are already diagnosed with diabetes

Genito Urinary Disease


1. Urine Analysis
- used to screen for and/or help diagnose conditions such as a urinary tract infections, kidney
disorders, liver problems, diabetes or other metabolic conditions
- comprised of several chemical, microscopic and visual examinations used to detect cells, cell
fragments and substances such as crystals or casts in the urine

2. Creatinine
- chemical waste molecule that is generated from muscle metabolism
- produced from creatine (a molecule of major importance for energy production in muscles)
and then converted to creatinine
- transported through the bloodstream to the kidneys for filter and disposal of in the urine
- abnormally high levels warn of possible malfunction or failure of the kidneys
3. Potassium
- used as part of an electrolyte panel or basic metabolic panel for a routine physical
- may be used to help diagnose and/or monitor kidney disease, the most common cause of
level in the bloodstream
- may be measured when there are symptoms involving the heart

4. Urea Nitrogen
- primarily used, along with the creatinine test, to evaluate kidney function
- Urea is a waste product formed in the liver when protein is metabolized, it is released by the
liver into the blood and is carried to the kidneys, where it is filtered out of the blood and
released into the urine
- Increased levels result when the kidneys cannot filter wastes out of the blood due to disease
or damage

5. High Vaginal Swab (HVS)


- useful for the investigation of bacterial vaginosis and can confirm vaginal Candidiasis by
culture
- involves taking a sample of vaginal secretions with a device that looks like a cotton bud

Malignant Neoplasms
1. Mammogram
- specific type of breast imaging that uses low-dose x-rays to detect cancer early before
women experience symptoms when it is most treatable

A. Conventional Film Mammogram

B. Digital Mammography (Full-Field Digital Mammography or FFDM)


- x-ray film is replaced by electronics that convert x-rays into mammographic
pictures of the breast
- enables better pictures with a lower radiation dose
- images of the breast are transferred to a computer for review by the radiologist
and for long term storage

C. Computer-aided detection (CAD) systems


- search digitized mammographic images for abnormal areas of density, mass, or
calcification that may indicate the presence of cancer
- CAD system highlights these areas on the images, alerting the radiologist to
carefully assess this area

D. Breast Tomosynthesis (Three-Dimensional or 3-D Mammography and Digital Breast


Tomosynthesis or DBT)
- advanced form of breast imaging where multiple images of the breast from
different angles are captured and reconstructed into a three-dimensional image
set
- similar to computed tomography (CT) imaging in which a series of thin "slices"
are assembled together to create a 3-D reconstruction
2. Pap Smear (Papanicolaou Smear)
- primarily used to screen for cervical cancer by looking for cervical and/or vaginal cells that
are cancerous or that may be precancerous
- a sample of cervical cells or cell suspension is placed on a glass slide, stained with a special
dye (Pap stain) and viewed under a microscope by a pathologist
- can also be used to detect vaginal or uterine infections, such as trichomonas infections

3. Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA)


- used to screen both asymptomatic and symptomatic men for prostate cancer
- PSA is a protein produced primarily by cells in the prostate that is released into semen, but
small amounts into the blood
- elevated levels are associated with cancer, they may be caused by other conditions, such as
benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and inflammation of the prostate

4. Fecal Occult Blood


- testing for the presence of microscopic or invisible blood in the stool
- may indicate a problem in the digestive system, such as a growth, a polyp, or cancer in the
colon or rectum

Cardiovascular Diseases
1. ECG (Electrocardiography)
- a test that measures the electrical activity of the heart
- helps to find the cause of symptoms of heart disease

2. Lipid Profile Test


A. Blood Cholesterol
- waxy, fat-like substance thats found in all cells of the to make hormones,
Vitamin D, and substances that help digest foods
- not used to diagnose or monitor a disease but is used instead to estimate risk
of developing a disease specifically heart disease
- high blood cholesterol has been associated with hardening of the arteries
(atherosclerosis), heart disease, and a raised risk of death from heart attacks
- checks the health status of the heart when other diseases or conditions are
present

B. Triglycerides
- used to help identify an individual's risk of developing heart disease
- used to monitor people who have risk factors for heart disease, those who have
had a heart attack, or those who are being treated for high lipid and/or high
triglyceride levels

C. Low-Density Lipoprotein
- considered to be undesirable and is often called "bad" cholesterol
- it deposits excess cholesterol in blood vessel walls and contributes to hardening
of the arteries and heart disease
- considered the most important form in determining risk of heart disease
- helps determine what treatment is needed if there is borderline or high risk or
to monitor the effectiveness of treatment once it is initiated
D. High-Density Lipoprotein
- considered to be beneficial and is called "good" cholesterol
- it removes excess cholesterol from tissues and carries it to the liver for disposal
- used to monitor the effectiveness of treatment for unhealthy lipid levels
