Comprehensive Kids Health Checkup – 33 Parameters for Complete Pediatric Wellness

The Comprehensive Kids Health Checkup from Lab Tests Dubai is a complete pediatric diagnostic panel designed to evaluate 33 critical health markers across blood, urine, and stool giving parents and pediatricians a full picture of a child’s health from age 1 to 18.

This all-in-one test assesses:

• ✅ Blood Health (CBC – 23 parameters): Anemia, infection, immunity
• ✅ Liver & Kidney Function (AST, ALP, Creatinine, Urea)
• ✅ Bone & Mineral Health (Calcium, Phosphorus, Iron)
• ✅ Infection & Immunity (ASO Titre, WBCs)
• ✅ Digestive & Gut Health (Stool & Urine Analysis)

This checkup is essential for:

• Detecting hidden anemia, iron deficiency, or vitamin gaps
• Evaluating frequent infections, fatigue, or poor growth
• Screening for liver or kidney issues (especially in obese or diabetic children)
• Checking for parasites or digestive infections
• Supporting school admissions, sports, or travel
• Monitoring children with chronic conditions (asthma, allergies, obesity)

With results in just 1–3 days, Lab Tests Dubai empowers parents and pediatricians to catch problems early, prevent complications, and support healthy development.

Available with home blood, urine, and stool collection, this package ensures accurate, stress-free, and child-friendly testing so your little one stays calm and comfortable.

Why You Need This Test

If your child is tired, pale, frequently sick, or not growing well, this test could reveal nutritional deficiencies, infections, or organ issues that routine checkups might miss.

You need the Kids Health Checkup if:

• Your child has pale skin, fatigue, or low energy
• They suffer from frequent colds, fevers, or infections
• They have poor appetite, slow growth, or delayed milestones
• They complain of abdominal pain, bloating, or irregular stools
• They’re starting school, sports, or traveling
• They have obesity, diabetes, or chronic illness
• You want a complete baseline before vaccinations or surgery

This test helps:

• Diagnose iron-deficiency anemia (common in picky eaters)
• Detect hidden infections (e.g., strep, parasites)
• Assess liver/kidney health (critical for long-term wellness)
• Monitor bone development (calcium, phosphorus)
• Ensure your child is thriving, not just surviving

Early testing stronger immunity and better growth.

Symptoms That Indicate This Test

Consider the Kids Health Checkup if your child shows:

✅ For Anemia & Nutrition:

• Pale skin, brittle nails, dizziness
• Fatigue, irritability, poor concentration
• Cravings for ice or dirt (pica)

✅ For Infections & Immunity:

• Frequent sore throats or fevers
• Swollen glands or slow recovery
• High ASO titre (risk of rheumatic fever)

✅ For Digestive & Gut Health:

• Constipation, diarrhea, or mucus in stool
• Gas, bloating, or abdominal pain
• Parasite exposure (travel, daycare, pets)

✅ For Organ & Metabolic Health:

• Jaundice or dark urine
• Swelling in legs or face
• Excessive thirst or urination

These signs may point to underlying health issues and this test helps start the right care.

Natural Production: How Kids’ Bodies Use These Key Markers

Children’s bodies are growing rapidly so they need:

• Iron for hemoglobin and brain development
• Calcium & Phosphorus for strong bones
• Healthy liver & kidneys to filter toxins
• Balanced WBCs to fight infections

When imbalanced:

• Low iron → anemia → fatigue, poor school performance
• High ALP → bone growth or liver stress
• Abnormal creatinine → kidney dysfunction
• Nucleated RBCs → bone marrow stress or infection
• Parasites in stool → malnutrition, bloating

This panel measures it all so you don’t wait for symptoms to worsen.

What Happens If Health Issues Are Left Untreated?

Ignoring childhood health imbalances can lead to:

⚠️ Chronic Anemia – poor growth, learning delays
⚠️ Recurrent Infections – weakened immunity
⚠️ Bone Deformities – from calcium/vitamin D deficiency
⚠️ Kidney or Liver Damage – if metabolic issues go undetected
⚠️ Parasitic Infections – malnutrition, stunted growth
⚠️ Missed Developmental Milestones

The good news? Most childhood conditions are treatable with:

• Dietary changes (iron-rich foods, hydration)
• Supplements (iron, vitamin D, zinc)
• Medications (for infections or parasites)
• Lifestyle adjustments (sleep, exercise)

Early testing  prevention of long-term harm.

How to Prepare for the Test

To ensure accurate results:

✅ No fasting required (unless testing glucose or lipids separately)
✅ Collect urine as first morning void (clean-catch method)
✅ Collect fresh stool sample (avoid contamination with urine)
✅ Inform your doctor of:

• Current medications or supplements
• Recent illnesses or infections
• Dietary habits (picky eating, vegetarianism)

A small blood draw, urine sample, and stool sample are collected available at our labs or via home collection with child-friendly kits.
