Ante-Natal Profile - Essentials

The Ante-Natal Profile - Essentials is a foundational diagnostic suite designed to monitor maternal health and ensure a safe environment for fetal development during the early stages of pregnancy. This package focuses on the essential physiological markers required to identify potential complications before they become symptomatic.

The core of the profile includes a CBC and ESR to check for pregnancy-related anemia and general inflammation, while Blood Grouping is performed to preemptively manage Rh incompatibility risks. Metabolic health is prioritized through BSR and HbA1c testing, which screens for pre-existing or gestational diabetes—a critical step in preventing high birth weight and delivery complications.

Furthermore, the package emphasises safety through rigorous infectious disease screening. Viral Markers (HIV, Hep B, Hep C) and VDRL (Syphilis) are included to prevent vertical transmission from mother to child. TSH monitoring ensures the maternal thyroid function is optimal for the child neurological growth, while a Urine Routine screens for silent UTIs or protein loss, an early indicator of preeclampsia.
