Medicine for adults

Diagnostics

Analyzes (laboratory diagnostics)

All types of laboratory tests are performed.

You must pre-register by phone. For certain types of tests, the time or days for collecting biomaterial may be limited. Pre-registration allows you to clarify the possibility of collecting biomaterial for specific indicators.

Beginning of work

treatment rooms in all departments of the Medical
8:00 am
, all days of the week. You can take tests at any of the outpatient departments of the Medical Center, 7 days a week.

Readiness dates for tests taken during the main collection time:

  • Clinical blood test, general urine test, Sulkovich test, urine test according to Nichiporenko, stool test for worms, enterobiasis, coprogram: on the day of collection after 21:00.
  • Hospital complex (blood type, Rh factor, F-50, RW, hepatitis): on the day of collection after 21:00.
  • Some markers of hepatitis, HIV: 3-7 days
  • Blood coagulation tests, biochemical blood tests: 2-3 days
  • Hormonal studies, PCR diagnostics, blood tumor markers: 3-5 days
    (for some hormones the readiness time is 7-9 days)
  • Bacteriological (smears for flora, disgroup, blood, urine, milk cultures, stool for UFP): 5-7 days
  • (negative results when culturing urine for microflora can be issued within 24 hours from the moment the biomaterial arrives at the laboratory)

  • Histological and cytological studies: up to 7 days
  • Blood tests for allergens, IgE, antibodies to Giardia, Toxocara, Ascaris: up to 10 days
  • Determination of the concentration of total immunoglobulin E (IgE) using the mast cell degranulation method (MCD) - up to 30 working days
  • Determination of specific allergens by mast cell degranulation (MCD) - up to 14 working days
  • Antibodies to viruses (cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr, measles, mumps, herpes and others): up to 10 days
  • Dysbacteriosis: 7-10 working days
  • Sowing for mycoses (fungi): up to 28 days

Important Notes

Material for research

children under 7 years of age: venous blood/capillary blood (for special indications)

children over 7 years old and adults: venous blood

Capillary blood collection for examination is carried out only for children under 7 years of age (for special indications)!

According to GOST R 53079.4-2008, indications for taking capillary blood are possible: in newborns, in patients with very small or hard-to-reach veins, with large-area burns, and severe obesity of the patient.

Ready times for tests taken in the evening (after the main time for taking tests):

  • for analyzes with a same-day turnaround time, the results will be ready by 3:00 p.m. the next day;
  • for analyzes with a long turnaround time (more than 1 day), the period is increased by 1 day.

The turnaround time for some tests may vary. Up-to-date information can be obtained by phone.

We ask that you bring biomaterials for analysis in sterile containers

. In outpatient departments, when registering for tests, these containers are issued by administrators. If you make an appointment by phone, you need to buy them at the pharmacy. This is especially important for analyzes in which biomaterial is inoculated (feces, urine, breast milk, ejaculate, saliva, etc.). The laboratory will not be able to accept material that is not brought in a special container, since the sterility of the container is necessary to obtain a reliable result.

Dear patients, please note!

HOW CAN YOU OBTAIN ANALYSIS RESULTS

The results of research (analysis) are information constituting the patient’s medical confidentiality and can only be issued:

  • You personally
    in any outpatient department (upon presentation of an identification document);
  • Your representative
    , acting on the basis of a notarized power of attorney, including the right of access to medical confidentiality.
  • The legal representative of a child under 15 years of age
    (parents, guardians, trustees), upon presentation of documents confirming the identity of the representative and his right to represent the interests of the patient (passport where the child is registered or birth certificate, etc.).
    Grandmothers, grandfathers, sisters, brothers, nannies and other close people, in accordance with current legislation, are not legal representatives.
    From the age of 15, patients have the right to maintain medical confidentiality. In order for parents or other representatives to have access to medical information, the patient must complete a proxy statement in person.
  • A representative of an incapacitated or partially capable Patient
    upon presentation of the relevant document;
  • Another person you authorize to receive your test results
    . To do this, you must personally, in the presence of an employee of the medical center, write a statement indicating the authorized persons who have the right to receive your medical information.

Other persons, as well as representatives who do not have identification documents, will, unfortunately, be denied the results of research (analysis).

collection of biomaterials for laboratory diagnostics in St. Petersburg

Laboratory diagnostics (tests) are of great importance for diagnosing many diseases and monitoring the effectiveness of treatment. Depending on the problem, this could be a blood test, a urine test, or other types of tests. During illness, it is especially difficult to leave the house and waste time and energy on the road. The risk of complications due to contact with infections in medical institutions increases. You can get tested without leaving your home. Our center offers a service such as collection of biomaterials for testing at home. By calling the coordination center, you can call a nurse at a time convenient for you. Almost all types of tests can be done without coming to the clinic: clinical blood tests, urine tests, biochemical, hormonal, immunological and other studies.

Calling a nurse to collect biomaterial for testing at home saves you time and allows you not to go outside during periods of poor health. It is especially relevant during epidemics of influenza and ARVI, for elderly and weakened patients. It can also be very useful for pregnant women; during this period they have to undergo a lot of tests, and their health in the morning is often not ideal.

The Medical Center employs qualified nurses with extensive experience, uses modern equipment, and all instruments for taking samples are disposable, which makes the procedure completely safe. The material is delivered to the laboratory within a short time, established by medical standards, so there is no difference in the accuracy of the results of tests taken at home or in a medical center.

Sample collection is carried out in all districts of St. Petersburg, in the suburbs and the Leningrad region. Since June 1, 2013, distance coefficients have been reduced in many localities. Test results can be obtained by e-mail, from your attending physician, or from the outpatient departments of our center.
