Tests reflecting liver reserve function

Test plasma protein (ALb) and prothrombin time (PT), which reflect liver reserve function, are routine tests that reflect the ability of the liver to synthesize to reflect its reserve capacity. A decrease in ALb indicates a decrease in the ability of the protein to be formed, and prolongation of PT reveals a decrease in the synthesis ability of various coagulation factors. 6 ml of venous blood was drawn, and it was packed in a common tube, and serum albumin and globulin concentration values ​​were respectively obtained. Basic Information Specialist classification: Digestive examination classification: liver function test Applicable gender: whether men and women apply fasting: not fasting Analysis results: Below normal: A decrease in serum albumin concentration suggests that the subject may have cirrhosis. Normal value: Serum albumin: 35-50g/L Globulin: 20-30g/L Above normal: Subjects may have chronic or acute hepatitis. negative: Positive: Tips: Do not eat before the test, blood test requires fasting, fasting time is generally 8 to 12 hours. Normal value The normal value of serum albumin is 35-50 g/L, the globulin is 20-30 g/L, and the A/G ratio is 1.3-2.5. Clinical significance Abnormal results were seen in serum albumin concentrations in patients with chronic and severe hepatitis and cirrhosis. Need to check patients with liver function impairment in the population. Low results may be diseases: hepatitis precautions Taboo before inspection: 1. Be careful not to take the drug before the test, because some drugs will increase the burden on the liver, causing temporary damage to the liver function, which will lead to the accuracy of the liver function test results. 2. Pay attention to ensure adequate sleep before exercise, do not exercise vigorously, which may cause elevated transaminase, thus affecting the test results. 3. You must not drink alcohol the day before. Drinking alcohol will cause an increase in transaminase and affect the test results. 4. It is best not to eat too greasy, too spicy food the night before. Taboo when checking: 1. Can not eat before the examination, blood test requires fasting, fasting time is generally 8 to 12 hours. 2. Check the morning of the day as far as possible not to exercise or strenuous exercise, if the exercise should go to the hospital after a quiet rest for 20 minutes before taking blood test. Inspection process 6 ml of venous blood was drawn, and it was packed in a common tube, and serum albumin and globulin concentration values ​​were respectively obtained. Not suitable for the crowd 1. Patients who have taken contraceptives, thyroid hormones, steroid hormones, etc., may increase the liver load, which may affect the results of the examination. It is forbidden to check patients who have recently taken the drug history. 2, special diseases: patients with hematopoietic function to reduce disease, such as leukemia, various anemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, etc., unless the examination is essential, try to draw less blood. Adverse reactions and risks 1, subcutaneous hemorrhage: due to pressing time less than 5 minutes or blood draw technology is not enough, etc. can cause subcutaneous bleeding. 2, discomfort: the puncture site may appear pain, swelling, tenderness, subcutaneous ecchymosis visible to the naked eye. 3, dizzy or fainting: in the blood draw, due to emotional overstress, fear, reflex caused by vagus nerve excitement, blood pressure decreased, etc. caused by insufficient blood supply to the brain caused by fainting or dizziness. 4. Risk of infection: If you use an unclean needle, you may be at risk of infection.
