Comprehensive Fever Panel: Essential for Monsoon & Outbreak-Driven Illnesses in Mumbai

As the monsoon season approaches, the risk of various illnesses increases significantly in Mumbai. In particular, cases of dengue, malaria, typhoid, leptospirosis, chikungunya, and even COVID-19 become prevalent. To mitigate these risks, it is crucial to have a reliable tool for diagnosis.

This all-in-one fever panel helps doctors accurately identify the cause of fever, whether viral, bacterial, or parasitic. With timely and precise treatment, we can ensure better health outcomes for patients.

Importance of Timely Diagnosis

During the monsoon, many people face flu-like symptoms. An accurate diagnosis is vital, as it guides treatment. Misdiagnosis can lead to serious complications, especially in cases of dengue and malaria. Our fever panel is designed to address these concerns.

Timely detection of illnesses can prevent the progression of serious conditions. Patients experiencing symptoms should consider testing to ensure proper intervention.

Test Components & What They Detect

The fever panel consists of several key tests. Here is an overview:

1. Complete Blood Count (CBC)

• Detects infections, anemia, and low platelet count — critical for managing dengue effectively.




2. Malaria Antigen (Rapid Test)

• Quickly identifies malaria parasites (Plasmodium) to expedite treatment.




3. Malaria Smear (Peripheral Smear)

• Provides microscopic confirmation and staging of levels of malaria.




4. Dengue NS1 Antigen

• Detects dengue early, specifically between Day 1 and Day 5 of symptoms.




5. Dengue IgM Antibody

• Indicates a recent dengue infection, helping in quick diagnosis.




6. Dengue IgG Antibody

• Suggests a past dengue infection or potential secondary infection.




7. Typhidot IgM & IgG

• Rapid detection of specific typhoid antibodies (Salmonella Typhi).




8. Widal Test (Slide/Tube Method)

• Detects Salmonella antibodies, essential for typhoid confirmation.




9. Leptospira IgM Antibody

• Identifies leptospirosis, commonly contracted after exposure to floodwater.

10. Chikungunya IgM (Rapid Test)

- Detects the chikungunya virus, which typically causes severe joint pain.

11. SGOT (AST)

- A liver enzyme that is often elevated in viral fevers and dengue.

12. SGPT (ALT)

- Evaluates liver health, helping to detect any liver damage.

13. C-Reactive Protein (CRP)

- Serves as a marker for bacterial infections or systemic inflammation.

14. Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR)

- Indicates chronic inflammation, useful in diagnosing underlying conditions.

15. Urine Routine & Microscopy

- Checks for urinary tract infections (UTI), kidney stress, or dehydration.

16. COVID-19 RT-PCR / Rapid Antigen

- Detects current COVID-19 infections — crucial amid flu-like symptoms.

17. Blood Culture

- Identifies bacteria in the bloodstream, essential for diagnosing sepsis.

18. Procalcitonin

- A highly accurate marker for severe bacterial infections and sepsis.
