Symptom se test tak, step by step
🩺 Symptom → Investigation
Fever, headache, chest pain, cough, saans phoolna, pet dard, jaundice, UTI, kamzori, anaemia, joint pain, thyroid, periods ki problem…
har common OPD symptom ke liye kya likhein, kis order mein.
🔴 🟡 🟢 Red Flag system
Red = aaj hi test / refer ·
Yellow = test karo, 48-72 ghante mein review ·
Green = test ki zaroorat nahi, treat and watch.
🏥 Tier 1 → 2 → 3 sequence
Clinic mein abhi (BP, SpO2, glucometer, dipstick, ECG) → paas ke lab (CBC, LFT, KFT, urine, X-ray, USG) → referral level (CT, MRI, echo, endoscopy). Skip sirf red flag par.
✍️ "Write exactly this"
Requisition ki exact wording. Fasting kab, sample timing (troponin, dengue NS1 vs IgM), X-ray ka view, plain vs contrast, creatinine before contrast.
📋 Report says → You do
Report ki common lines aur unpe seedha action. Normal report ka matlab "kuch nahi" nahi hota: window period, kab repeat, kab aage badhein.
🚫 Ye tests band karo
Widal single sample, X-ray PNS for headache, sabko Vitamin D / B12, har joint pain pe RA factor, "full body checkup" packages… kyun galat hai aur iski jagah kya.
