3 deliverables in this treatment
- Venous blood draw
- Laboratory analysis of 6 biomarkers (Glucose, Total Cholesterol, Triglycerides, HIV, HBsAg, anti‑HCV)
- Consultation to review results and discuss implications
The Preoperative blood panel is a six‑marker test designed to give clinicians a quick health snapshot before surgery. It measures fasting glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, and screens for HIV, hepatitis B surface antigen, and hepatitis C antibodies, helping to identify conditions that could affect anesthesia or wound healing. Priced at €145, the test uses a standard venous blood draw and results are discussed during a follow‑up consult, making it a practical choice for adults scheduled for elective procedures.
About this treatment
The Preoperative (Preoperatorio) panel provides a concise overview of metabolic health and infectious disease status right before an operation. By measuring fasting glucose, total cholesterol, and triglycerides, the test highlights basic cardiometabolic risk factors that may influence peri‑operative management. In addition, it includes serologic screens for HIV (current infection), hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), and hepatitis C antibodies…

Biomarkers tested
6Blood sugar — the body's primary energy source. Fasting glucose screens for diabetes and prediabetes. Chronically elevated glucose damages blood vessels and organs. Levels fluctuate with meals, stress, and physical activity.
Detects antibodies to hepatitis C virus, indicating current or past infection. A positive result requires confirmatory RNA testing. Hepatitis C is now curable with direct-acting antiviral medications in most patients.
Detects HIV-1 and HIV-2 antibodies and/or p24 antigen. Fourth-generation tests can detect infection as early as 2–4 weeks after exposure. Early detection enables treatment that can achieve viral suppression and prevent transmission.
The combined measure of all cholesterol in your blood, including HDL, LDL, and VLDL. While useful as an overview, the breakdown between HDL and LDL is more clinically meaningful for assessing cardiovascular risk.
The most common type of fat in the body, stored for energy. Elevated triglycerides — often from excess sugar, alcohol, or calories — increase cardiovascular risk and can cause pancreatitis at very high levels.
