Fever Panel 1 Test Overview

A prolonged viral fever can bring massive changes in your body. If you have no idea the reason is behind this fever, it can further create panic. This is when the doctor would suggest undergoing the fever panel 1 test. While a low fever goes away on its own, a high fever could be a sign of a serious health problem that needs to be treated by a doctor. Infections, inflammation, and other health issues can cause fever. Doctors recommend a fever panel test, which looks for common fevers, including typhoid, malaria, and other fever-causing illnesses, to help identify the reason early.

Why is Fever Panel 1 Test Prescribed?

When a patient presents multiple symptoms, including body aches, chills, weaknesses, a prolonged fever, or other flu-like symptoms, Fever Panel 1 is advised. This panel technique saves time and offers a more comprehensive diagnostic picture than doing several separate tests. It is helpful in areas where parasites, bacterial, and viral infections are common. Some of the reasons the fever panel 1 test is prescribed-

It helps to identify prevalent illnesses that frequently result in fever, like typhoid and malaria.
ESR and CBC tests, which can identify bacterial or viral infections, are used to assess inflammation in the body.

Besides, if you have a travel history and have been exposed to contaminated water or food, you may end up having a weak immune system. This could also be the reason behind the fever, and with the test, the doctor may confirm.

Components of the Fever Panel 1 Test

The Fever Panel 1 Test combines Hemogram (CBC), Malaria Parasite (MP) test, Widal test, and Urine Routine & Microscopy (R/E) to identify the cause of prolonged, or recurring fever. Here is the breakdown of Hemogram MP Widal Urine R/E components-

Hemogram (Complete Blood Count - CBC): It measures red cells, white cells, and platelets to detect signs of infection, inflammation, or anaemia.

MP (Malaria Parasite) Test: It helps detecting malaria parasites in the blood.

Widal Test: This test helps to detect Salmonella typhi bacteria, diagnosing typhoid fever.

Urine R/E (Routine & Examination): Analyzes urine for bacteria, white blood cells, or other signs of a Urinary Tract Infection (UTI).

Preparation and Procedure

As a part of preparation, you will be asked to undergo overnight fasting before the test. Patients should discuss any current drugs, recent infections, or test findings with their healthcare professional. As a part of the procedure, the clinician would withdraw the blood from your vein and send it to the test.
