Whole body checkup – what it includes and why it should be performed

The World Health Organization recommends that every person undergo a complete medical examination once a year. This is necessary for the following reasons:

  1. A full examination by doctors makes it possible to detect a predisposition to one or another pathology or to diagnose it in the early stages of development. With such a regular examination of the body, it is quite possible to detect problems in the work of the cardiovascular system, to diagnose oncological processes at an early stage.
  2. A comprehensive health examination provides an opportunity to save on treatment in the future. It is known that treatment of the disease at an early stage of development is much cheaper than therapy or surgical treatment in advanced cases.

Many clinics have an excellent base for conducting a full examination of the patient, and this will be done in a short time and for an adequate cost.

What is a comprehensive examination of the body

Everything begins with a visit to the therapist, who will conduct a conversation with the patient, collect and document the medical history, which will help determine further actions. If a comprehensive examination of the child is to be carried out, it is necessary to immediately consult a pediatrician. During the visit of these specialists, the patient's physical parameters are measured - his height, weight, blood pressure is necessarily checked.

A comprehensive examination of the patient includes electrocardiography, and this procedure is performed twice - with and without exercise. Based on the results of the electrocardiography, the doctor determines the state of health of the cardiovascular system and decides whether it is necessary to carry out additional examinations in this direction.

Each patient is prescribed a general blood and urine test, and if necessary, a stool test. A comprehensive biochemical blood analysis will give a comprehensive picture of the state and functioning of the body. Spirometry is mandatory, which will allow you to determine how well the lungs cope with their work.

Comprehensive examination programs in the hospital include an examination by an ophthalmologist - the doctor examines the fundus, determines intraocular pressure and visual acuity. Other specialists should undergo regular examinations as prescribed by the main doctors.

The results of a complete examination are announced to the patient by the therapist.

Comprehensive examination of a woman's health

In addition to a general examination, a woman must undergo several specific ones, which are carried out taking into account age characteristics. As a rule, a comprehensive examination of a woman's health includes:

  • ultrasound examination of pelvic organs
  • computed tomography of bones to diagnose osteoporosis
  • mammography (helps detect breast cancer at an early stage)
  • PAP test (detects cervical cancer at an early stage)
  • a specific blood test that will determine the level of hormones.

If a woman undergoes a comprehensive examination of the entire body in time, it will help to diagnose the pathology at an early stage of development and detect the beginning of the physiological restructuring of the body, for example, during menopause. This will help correct the woman's condition or cope with the disease before it harms the body.

A full body examination in a clinic is not a whim or a fashionable phenomenon, but a necessity. It is very often necessary to carry out such a procedure for children, it will help to detect health problems, even if there are no characteristic signs. For example, many children do not cope with studies, parents blame it on laziness, and during the examination, a lack of thyroid hormones may be detected. Such a condition is easily and quickly corrected, which normalizes the child's education.

Many are interested in where you can get a full body examination. First, you can contact a state polyclinic - all specialists are required to examine the patient and render their verdict. Secondly, you can contact a clinic that will provide not only specialists, but also modern equipment for examination - the results will be more informative. By the way, the price of a comprehensive medical examination is quite adequate, it will suit even not too well-off citizens.
