Diagnostics FAQs

Common questions about lab tests, preparation, and understanding your results answered by our specialists.

Many blood tests require fasting for 8-12 hours beforehand, especially glucose, lipid profile, and certain hormone panels. However, some tests do not require fasting. Your physician will provide specific instructions when ordering the test. Drinking water is generally allowed and encouraged during the fasting period.
Turnaround time varies by test. Routine blood work results are typically available within 24 hours. Microbiology cultures may take 48-72 hours. Genetic testing and specialized assays may require 7-14 days. STAT tests for emergency cases are processed within 30-60 minutes. Results are accessible through our patient portal and sent directly to your physician.
Genetic testing analyzes your DNA to identify changes that may indicate increased risk for certain diseases, guide treatment decisions, or determine carrier status for hereditary conditions. It is recommended for individuals with a strong family history of genetic disorders, cancer, or when standard treatments have been ineffective. Our genetic counselors help interpret results and guide next steps.
Yes, MediTrust Hospital offers convenient home sample collection services for patients who are unable to visit the lab. A trained phlebotomist will visit your home at a scheduled time to collect blood, urine, or other samples. Results are delivered digitally via our patient portal. Please call our helpline to schedule a home visit within our service area.
Your lab report includes your results alongside reference ranges for each test. Values outside the reference range are flagged for attention. However, interpretation depends on your individual health context, medical history, and medication use. We recommend discussing all results with your physician, who can provide personalized interpretation and recommend any necessary follow-up.
