Duration: 1 hour 15 minutes.
This medical is performed by a doctor and includes the following:
- Full medical history review, including family history. The patient has the opportunity to discuss any health concerns that he may have.
- Full examination including testicular examination. If the man is over 45, or if there is any clinical indication of signifiant family history, a rectal examination will be performed.
- Height and weight are measured and body mass index is determined, which is a clinically accepted indicator of potential health problems associated with being overweight.
- Coronary risk score, which measures the risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the next 10 years. It is suitable only for people who have not had the diagnosis of heart disease or stroke.
- Urine test to screen for abnormalities that may be due to diabetes, an infection or kidney problems.
- Resting ECG to monitor the heart.
- Blood test – a full blood test including red cell and white cell counts, liver function, kidney function, diabetes screening test and cholesterol levels.
- If the man is over 45, or if there is any clinical indication or significant family history, the prostate enzyme, PSA, is measured.
- Spirometry, otherwise known as lung function testing – the patient blows into a spirometer, which measures and reports how the airways are performing.
- Audiometry – hearing test.
- If the patient is over 45, a bowel cancer screening test, called a faecal occult blood test, is included. We provide the patient with a kit so the test is performed at home and posted in a pre-paid envelope to the laboratory.
