The changing weather brings not only rain but also the annual threat of dengue fever. As mosquitoes multiply, the risk to our families and communities rises. When it comes to dengue, the single most important factor is time. Catching the virus early can mean the difference between a swift recovery and a dangerous, complicated illness.

At Exact Check Diagnostic Center, we believe that preventive healthcare should be proactive and accessible. Our specialized Dengue Screening Packages are designed with your peace of mind in mind, providing the critical insights needed to detect the dengue virus in its earliest stages, well before severe symptoms have a chance to develop.

Why Early Dengue Detection is Your Best Defense

Dengue is a viral infection that can rapidly progress. While many cases are mild, severe dengue can lead to life-threatening complications like internal bleeding and plasma leakage, which require immediate medical intervention. The greatest benefit of an Exact Check screening is the ability to enable your doctor to start supportive care immediately, minimizing the risk of these complications.

A quick, early test at the first sign of fever gives you and your physician a head start. It allows for prompt monitoring, better hydration management, and timely intervention, ultimately leading to a higher chance of a faster, safer recovery. This is the core benefit of our diagnostic services: empowering you with knowledge to take control of your health.

Your Shield Against Dengue: The Exact Check Screening Package

Our packages utilize two powerful, essential lab tests that work together to provide a comprehensive view of your condition.

The NS1 Test: Catching the Virus from Day One

The Non-Structural Protein 1 (NS1) test is a game-changer in early dengue diagnosis. Unlike antibody tests, which only become positive several days into the illness, the NS1 test detects a specific protein produced by the dengue virus itself.

• Benefit: The NS1 test is highly reliable during the first five days of fever—the period when the virus is actively circulating in the blood and when you need a diagnosis most. A positive NS1 result provides the earliest possible confirmation of dengue infection, allowing immediate supportive care.

The CBC Test: Monitoring Your Body’s Defense

The Complete Blood Count (CBC) test is a foundational diagnostic tool that checks the status of your red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets.

• Benefit: While not a direct dengue test, the CBC is crucial for monitoring the progression of the disease. In dengue patients, a sharp drop in white blood cell count (WBC) is often seen, followed by a decline in platelet count. Monitoring these values helps doctors assess the severity of the infection and determine if the patient is entering the critical phase where fluid leakage or bleeding complications are a risk. Regular CBC testing is essential for managing dengue safely.

A Quick Look at Diagnostic Facts

Did you know that the routine CBC test, a standard part of our dengue screening, is one of the oldest and most vital diagnostic tools in medicine? The platelet count, which is so crucial for monitoring dengue, typically ranges from 150,000 to 450,000 per microliter of blood. In severe dengue cases, this count can plummet, signaling the need for urgent care. This simple count helps save countless lives by providing an early warning signal of complications. Investing in diagnostic services like the CBC test is a direct investment in your body’s safety monitoring system.
