  • Japanese Encephalitis

    £100 per dose < Back Japanese Encephalitis £100 per dose Japanese Encephalitis Japanese encephalitis (JE) is a viral infection of the brain transmitted to humans by mosquitoes in parts of Asia and the Pacific Rim. The mosquitoes that transmit JE feed predominantly during the night, between dusk to dawn and are prolific in rural areas, where rice cultivation and pig farming are common. However, they have also been found in urban locations. The risk for most travellers to Asia is very low, especially for short-term travellers visiting urban areas. The overall incidence of JE among persons from non-affected countries travelling to Asia is estimated to be less than one case per 1 million travellers. Risk varies based on: destination, duration, season and activities. It increases for persons who intend to live or travel in risk areas for long periods and to rural areas. Certain activities, even during short trips, where there is significant rural, outdoor or nighttime exposure e.g. fieldwork or camping can increase the traveller’s risk. Most human infections with JE virus do not result in symptoms. When symptoms do occur, they include fever, headache and confusion. In symptomatic cases requiring hospitalisation death rates are high and neurological complications are common. What Vaccines are available? A licensed JE vaccine; IXIARO® is available and should be offered to those intending to stay for long periods in rural regions where JE occurs during the main transmission season or whose planned activities increase their risk. Vaccine Schedules Children and adults above 3 years (two doses) Conventional schedule Dose 1: Day 0 Dose 2: Day 28 Accelerated schedule (ages 18 - 65): Dose 1: Day 0 Dose 2: Day 7 Protection Duration: Booster can be given 12-24 months after the initial course, and again after 10 years. How far in advance do I need to book my vaccine for my trip? Ideally, start the course 4-6 weeks before travel, but you can have the vaccine last up to the day before traveling. Prevention The risk of acquiring JE can be reduced by insect bite avoidance, particularly between the hours of dusk and dawn, when Culex mosquitoes are most active. Need other vaccines?

  • Pregnancy Beta HCG Quantitative

    Pregnancy Beta HCG Quantitative £79 < Back Pregnancy Beta HCG Quantitative What can I expect from this Pregnancy Test - Beta HCG? This is a quantitative Beta HCG test that can identify whether you are pregnant or not. It can also be used to monitor how your pregnancy is progressing on a weekly basis. This test is more sensitive than a urine pregnancy test allowing you to confirm pregnancy earlier. What is the difference between the blood test and the standard urine test? Whilst both tests measure beta HCG levels, studies have shown that the blood test allows for earlier detection of pregnancy as it is more sensitive. Typically, the urine test is best done 1 week after a missed period as before this time the accuracy is limited. There is also a higher chance of a false positive result. The added benefit of this beta HCG blood test (quantitative) is that it is able to tell you how far along the pregnancy is. Repeated testing can tell you if the pregnancy is progressing at the expected level and potentially identify issues. What potential issues can this test identify? If the level of HCG is low or the trend is declining then this can be an indication of miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy. However, this is not diagnostic and would require a detailed review with your doctor. If the level of HCG is high or the trend is increasing at a rate faster than expected then this can be an indication of multiple pregnancy (twins etc) or Molar pregnancy. However, this is not diagnostic and would require a detailed review with your doctor. What else can this beta HCG blood test be used for? Fertility clinics can use HCG injections to help increase the chances of IVF or IUI being successful. Therefore, this test can also be used to monitor your levels if you are going through this process. Biomarkers: Beta-hCG , The test checks for a hormone called human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG).
