A recently published study have revealed that routine health check-ups do not pose a significant impact on the overall health of an individual. During a regular check-up, the laboratory tests must not be ordered unless there is a strong rationale depending upon the severity of the disease or condition.
Preliminary tests like CBC, electrolytes test, pulmonary function tests etc.must be prescribed when there is disease profitability. Which tests should be included as a part of routine health check-up and how frequently the tests should be advised?
