Define the question before the check package
A meaningful preventive check starts with the audience, purpose and a professionally justified selection of measurements. Results require interpretation alongside history and care context; a generic test list is not a diagnosis.
Professional use contexts
- Practices with structured preventive consultation and care concepts
- Pharmacies and other professional health providers with clearly assigned professional interpretation
- Clinics and medical facilities integrating selected measurements into existing prevention workflows
Questions for a responsible check
- Which preventive information objective should the check support?
- Which measurements are professionally justified for the audience and specific question?
- Which results require confirmation, further diagnostics or specialist assessment?
Established measurements in the current prevention context
- HbA1c
- Lipid values
- C-reactive protein (CRP)
- Vitamin D
- TSH
- Ferritin
A structured check workflow
Define objective and scope
Set the audience, purpose, suitable measurements and responsibilities before the check.
Measure with documentation
Perform sampling and testing according to the system instructions and document the result traceably.
Interpret the result cautiously
Discuss measurements in the individual context and arrange suitable further assessment for abnormal or uncertain findings.
Professional note
Preventive checks do not replace an individual medical diagnosis, treatment decision or further assessment. They guarantee neither the detection nor exclusion or prevention of disease.
Frequently asked questions
Questions about preventive checks
A preventive check brings together professionally selected measurements for a defined question. It provides diagnostic information for consultation and possible further assessment, not a standalone diagnosis.
Current PolarisDX evidence names HbA1c, lipid values, CRP, Vitamin D, TSH and ferritin. The suitable selection depends on the audience, question and professional responsibility.
No. A check can provide information but offers no guarantee of early detection, exclusion or disease prevention. Abnormal or unclear results require medical interpretation and, where appropriate, further assessment.
