What Are The Clinical Laboratory Testing Items?

2025-10-16


The body is the capital of revolution, and I increasingly believe that having a good body is more important than anything else. There is no wealth in the world that is better than health, and no happiness greater than inner happiness. When we go to the hospital for a physical examination, we will go to the laboratory for blood tests, urine tests, imaging tests, etc. What is the mysterious laboratory? Below, I will give you some tips on clinical laboratory testing projects!

What does clinical testing detect?

Using human blood, urine, feces, and various other body fluids and secretions as specimens, two major detection methods, automated instruments and traditional manual methods, are used to observe general characteristics and conduct physical, chemical, and morphological examinations to obtain information about pathogens, pathological changes in the body, and organ function status, providing a basis for disease diagnosis, efficacy observation, and prognosis judgment.

What are the common tests?

Routine tests include: blood routine, urine routine, stool routine, semen routine, vaginal discharge routine, cerebrospinal fluid routine, blood rheology, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, blood coagulation, and blood smear. Biochemical tests include liver function, kidney function, myocardial enzymes, blood lipids, troponin, blood gas analysis, amylase, and electrolytes. Immune test includes: five items of hepatitis B, hepatitis A, hepatitis C, syphilis, mycoplasma pneumoniae, thyroid function test HIV、 Rheumatoid examination. Bacterial examination includes testing for Staphylococcus, Bacteroides, Streptococcus, and Fungi. Blood banks include blood type testing, blood matching, and blood donation. Other tests include ankylosing spondylitis and brain natriuretic peptide.

Blood routine

Blood cell routine examination, abbreviated as "blood routine", is the most basic and commonly used type of examination item in clinical testing. It is easy to obtain and convenient to detect. Including tests such as white blood cell count, red blood cell count, hemoglobin, and platelet count. The screening of infectious diseases and blood system diseases is mainly used for auxiliary diagnosis and differential diagnosis. It is also an indicator of drug use and withdrawal during treatment. It is recommended to avoid intense exercise and emotional tension before personal examination. If you experience dizziness, blurred vision, fatigue, or other symptoms during the blood drawing process, you should immediately inform the medical staff who are drawing the blood.

Blood parasite examination

The main examination items of blood parasite examination are malaria parasite examination and microfilament examination, which are mainly used to check for parasites in the blood.

Urine routine

Urine routine is a test of urine, mainly including indicators such as urine protein, red blood cells, white blood cells, and bacteria. The examination items include urine analysis, microscopic examination of urine sediment, RBC microscopic examination of urinary abnormalities, 24-hour urine protein quantification, and urine Adi's protein examination, which have important reference value for the diagnosis of urinary tract infections, pyelonephritis and other diseases. At the same time, urine examination can also reflect the treatment effect and prognosis of the disease. It is recommended to use fresh morning urine as much as possible during personal examinations and avoid taking medication before the examination, which can also improve the diagnosis rate of diseases.

Imaging examinations

Imaging examinations include X-rays CT、 Magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasound are used to image the human body through various imaging devices to reflect internal organ and tissue lesions, thereby helping to diagnose diseases such as lung diseases, skeletal system diseases, etc. Pregnant women should avoid X-ray examinations, and those with pacemakers should not undergo MRI examinations.

Renal function examination

The basic structure of nephrons includes nephrons and renal blood vessels. The examination for kidney disease includes: urine routine examination, renal function examination, urine biochemistry examination, renal immunology examination, and urine microbiological examination. The renal function examination includes glomerular filtration function and the transport function of renal tubules and collecting ducts.

Conclusion

Only health is the most important thing in our lives. When you get sick, you will understand in the hospital that there is nothing that cannot be left behind compared to health. No illness or disaster, family safety and health. In the face of safety and health, everything seems so insignificant, and physical health is more important than anything else. Having learned about laboratory knowledge, I hope everyone values their own health and does not overdraw their health.
