When is the blood test package recommended?
The package includes every basic parameter needed to confirm that anaesthesia can be given safely — but it can be worthwhile not only before a procedure.
-
Before a procedure under anaesthesia
If you are preparing for gastroscopy or colonoscopy under anaesthesia, this package is a basic requirement for safe anaesthesia.
-
Persistent digestive complaints
If you regularly experience heartburn, bloating or a feeling of fullness, blood tests can help uncover the underlying causes.
-
Changes in bowel habits
If you have persistent constipation, diarrhoea or alternating bouts of both, a blood test is essential for the diagnosis.
-
Age over 50
At this age, blood tests are especially recommended as part of screening, for prevention.
-
Family history
If there is a family history of cancer or serious digestive disease, a check-up can be life-saving.
-
Preparing for surgery
Before any planned surgical or gastroenterological procedure where your current state of health matters.
-
General health check
If you have milder but persistent complaints and would like an accurate picture of how your internal organs are working.
-
On the anaesthetist's recommendation
If our specialist anaesthetist asks for additional parameters to be checked to make sure anaesthesia can be given safely.
Preparing for an examination under anaesthesia? Book an appointment for blood sampling so that everything is ready on the day of the procedure.
This list is for information only and does not replace an examination by a specialist. Come for the blood test on an empty stomach, and tell our colleagues about any medicines you take regularly. If you have any questions, call us: 06-1-413-2500 (H–P 9–17).

Did you know?
Five questions and answers about blood sampling and the values tested.
-
Do you know why it is important to check blood clotting parameters?
The clotting factors checked during blood sampling show whether there is a risk of bleeding if a tissue sample is taken (biopsy) or a polyp is removed, so the doctor can carry out the procedure well prepared.
-
Did you know that we also check kidney function before anaesthesia?
The kidneys play a key role in breaking down and excreting the medicines used for anaesthesia. The blood test helps the anaesthetist to determine a precise and safe dose.
-
Did you know that some patients may also need individual laboratory parameters?
Although our package includes all the basic values, if you have a chronic underlying condition your doctor may recommend additional tests to keep the risk of the procedure as low as possible.
-
Did you know that fasting blood sampling is the most accurate?
Most blood values can be affected by eating, so please do not have breakfast on the morning of the test and drink only water — this way the results give a true picture of your health.
-
Did you know that our laboratory tests can also be paid from a health fund?
Endomedix is a contracted partner of many health funds, so you can conveniently pay for the blood test package and the specialist consultation from your health fund savings.
Can also be paid from a health fund account
The examination fee can of course also be paid from your health fund account — our colleagues will be happy to give you the details. The list of health funds that work with Endomedix can be found here.
