Complete Guide to Prime Medic's Liver Function Tests (LFT) Referrals

Prime Medic is dedicated to providing easy access to essential healthcare services, including referrals for critical diagnostic tests. One such vital test is the Liver Function Test (LFT). This guide will explain what LFTs are, their importance, and how you can obtain a referral through Prime Medic.

What are Liver Function Tests (LFTs)?

Understanding Liver Function Tests

Liver Function Tests (LFTs) are a series of blood tests that measure different enzymes, proteins, and other substances produced by the liver. These tests provide crucial information about the liver's health and functionality.

Key Components of LFTs

LFTs typically include measurements of the following:

• Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP): An enzyme related to bile ducts; often elevated if they're blocked.

Why are LFTs Important?

Diagnosing Liver Conditions

LFTs are crucial for diagnosing various liver conditions, such as hepatitis, fatty liver disease, and cirrhosis. They help detect inflammation, damage, or dysfunction in the liver.

Monitoring Chronic Liver Diseases

For individuals with chronic liver diseases, regular LFTs are essential for monitoring liver health and the effectiveness of treatments.

Evaluating Medication Effects

Certain medications can impact liver function, making LFTs necessary to monitor the liver's response and ensure safe medication use.
