A comprehensive health check up typically includes a variety of assessments and tests. These may encompass:
- Medical History Review: Gathering information about the patient's past illnesses, surgeries, medications, and family history. - Physical Examination: Checking vital signs such as blood pressure, heart rate, temperature, and respiratory rate. - Laboratory Tests: Blood tests, urine tests, and other investigations to assess organ function and detect abnormalities. - Imaging Studies: X-rays, ultrasounds, or other imaging techniques to visualize internal structures. - Specialized Screenings: Depending on age, gender, and risk factors, additional screenings like mammograms, colonoscopies, and bone density tests may be recommended.
