Q: How accurate is the CEA blood test?

The accuracy of the test for CEA is conducted through ISO-certified laboratories. The accuracy of a test method is expressed in terms of specificity and sensitivity. However, the most important aspect is that the results are interpreted and accepted among general practitioners and hospitals. This is the case with our venous samples. Mutual acceptance may not always be present due to potentially reduced reliability with a capillary sample.

Q: How do I interpret the results of a CEA blood test?

Interpreting the results of CEA is not always easy and should be seen in the broader picture, along with anamnesis and physical examination.

Blood tests for digoxin are performed to measure the levels of this drug in the blood. Digoxin is a drug used to treat certain heart conditions, such as congestive heart failure and certain heart rhythm disorders. Monitoring the blood levels of digoxin is essential to ensure that the drug is used effectively and safely.

Digoxin has a narrow therapeutic window, meaning that the distance between the therapeutic dose and the toxic dose are relatively small. Therefore, a blood test can help detect early signs of toxicity, such as changes in the electrical activity of the heart (ECG changes) and other side effects such as nausea, vomiting and visual disturbances.

You do not need to be fasting for this blood test.

For blood tests, we always use venous sampling. This is the gold standard for blood collection. Over-the-counter tests, such as a finger prick test, use the capillary route for blood collection. These do not always give the same results and the accuracy depends on how, where, and with which technique the collection is done. The advantage, of course, is that the test is easier and less painful to take.

What payment options are available for a Digoxine blood test?

You can always pay with iDeal and credit card (VISA, Mastercard, and Amex). This also includes Apple Pay. The phlebotomists at the collection location cannot accept cash payments.

The results of Labplusarts can be shared with your general practitioner at your request. However, you can also easily arrange this yourself by downloading the result in PDF format. Because we use comparable test methods as the general practitioner, the results are interchangeable and comparable so that comparisons can be made well.
