The Dengue IgG, IgM, and NS1 tests can be performed by two methods: Rapid test and ELISA, and both differ in accuracy, time, and usage. Rapid tests are quick screening tests that give results within 15–20 minutes and are easy to perform at clinics or home collection settings. However, they are less sensitive and may sometimes give false positive or false negative results. On the other hand, ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) is a laboratory-based method that takes a few hours but provides more accurate and reliable results. ELISA has higher sensitivity and specificity, making it better for confirmation of dengue infection. In terms of detection, both methods check NS1 for early infection and IgM/IgG for later stages, but ELISA can detect even low levels more precisely. Rapid tests are useful for quick initial screening, while ELISA is preferred for final diagnosis, monitoring, and clinical decision-making.

A TORCH IgM test measures the presence of IgM antibodies against a group of infections: Toxoplasma, Rubella, Cytomegalovirus (CMV), and Herpes simplex virus (HSV). IgM antibodies indicate a recent or acute infection. This test is particularly important for pregnant women, as these infections can cause serious birth defects or complications if transmitted to the fetus. Detecting IgM antibodies helps diagnose recent infections, allowing healthcare providers to take timely steps to manage and reduce the risk to the mother and baby.
Random insulin refers to the measurement of insulin levels in the bloodstream at any time of the day, without regard to the timing of meals or fasting. This test provides immediate insight into insulin production and secretion by the pancreas, reflecting the body's response to current glucose levels. Random insulin testing is particularly useful in emergency situations to assess insulin status quickly, such as in cases of suspected hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia. It helps healthcare providers make rapid decisions regarding treatment and management of diabetes and related conditions.
Liver function tests (LFTs) are a group of blood tests that measure various enzymes, proteins, and substances produced or processed by the liver. These tests provide valuable information about the liver's health and its ability to perform essential functions. LFTs typically include measurements of enzymes such as alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST), which indicate liver cell damage or inflammation when elevated. Bilirubin levels are also assessed to evaluate liver function and the excretion of bile. Additionally, tests for albumin and total protein levels help assess the liver's ability to produce proteins essential for blood clotting and overall body function. LFTs are used to diagnose liver diseases such as hepatitis, cirrhosis, and fatty liver disease, monitor treatment responses, and assess overall liver health.
