Family history
A parent, brother or sister with diabetes.
Customised Health Checkup
A health check suited to the individual, because every clinical requirement differs.
Many laboratories have developed a customised health check that is suited to an individual's needs, recognising that everybody will have a different clinical requirement. Each individual's risk of developing a disease or condition as a result of their way of life is taken into account.
The glucose screening test
You will drink a fluid that contains glucose, and one hour afterwards your blood will be drawn to check your glucose level. A typical result is 140 mg/dL or lower. If your level is higher than 140 mg/dL, you will need to take a glucose tolerance test.
In short
A customised health checkup at Shantam Diabetes & Medical Centre, Paschim Vihar, is a health check built around the individual, because every person has a different clinical requirement. Your risk of developing a disease as a result of your way of life is taken into account when choosing the tests.

A fixed package gives everyone the same tests. A customised checkup chooses tests for your age, history and lifestyle, so what is checked is relevant to you.
People with a family history of diabetes, those who are overweight or inactive, and women advised glucose screening in pregnancy are among those who benefit from checking early.
