Broad 18-marker panel covering haematology, lipid profile, liver function (5 enzymes), kidney markers, uric acid, iron, minerals, electrolytes, coagulation, inflammation, and thyroid. At 319 PLN (~74 EUR) with blood draw included — 52% less than ordering individually (659 PLN). Thorough metabolic and organ function assessment in a single visit.
The maksimum package provides thorough screening across six organ systems from a single blood draw. The complete blood count with ESR supplies haematological data and a non-specific inflammation marker. The full lipidogram measures total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, and triglycerides — enabling SCORE2 cardiovascular risk calculation. European Society of Cardiology guidelines set LDL targets below 2.6 mmol/L for moderate-risk individuals and below 1.4 mmol/L for those at very high risk. The five-marker liver panel is notably comprehensive. ALT is the most liver-specific transaminase, while AST rises in both hepatic and muscular injury, making the AST:ALT ratio clinically informative — values exceeding 2.0 suggest alcohol-related pathology. GGT responds sensitively to alcohol consumption and biliary obstruction. Total bilirubin screens for conjugation disorders and haemolysis. ALP elevations indicate cholestatic liver disease or bone pathology. Kidney assessment comes from creatinine with eGFR — the standard for detecting chronic kidney disease. Uric acid screens for hyperuricaemia, which predisposes to gout (a condition three to four times more common in men) and correlates independently with cardiovascular events. Serum iron evaluates the most widespread nutritional deficiency globally. Calcium and magnesium abnormalities cause neuromuscular irritability, cardiac arrhythmias, and fatigue — symptoms often attributed to less specific causes without biochemical testing. Electrolytes (sodium, potassium) assess renal tubular function and fluid homeostasis. The coagulation screen covers PT/INR and APTT — important for surgical clearance or unexplained bruising. Krakow's Old Town location makes this panel especially practical for medical tourists. The extended opening hours (until 18:00 on weekdays) allow fasting blood draws through mid-afternoon. Direct budget flights connect Krakow with over 100 European destinations, and the price difference versus German labs — where equivalent testing costs 400-700 EUR — easily covers airfare and accommodation.
