What is the most frequently ordered blood test?
Complete Blood Count (CBC) 🩸

Whether you're gearing up for routine bloodwork, particularly your annual screen, or you're experiencing symptoms like fatigue and weakness, it's highly likely that a CBC will be featured on your requisition.

CBC screens for levels of 10 different components of every major cell in your blood:

Red blood cells: The oxygen carriers in your bloodstream.
White blood cells: The immune system cells in your bloodstream.
Hemoglobin: Protein within red blood cells that carries oxygen to organs and tissues and carbon dioxide back to lungs.
Platelets: The substances that control clotting of the blood.

A CBC test enables physicians to assess your body's capacity to transport oxygen, combat infections, and maintain proper clotting functions. This critical information assists in early detection, monitoring, and management of conditions, ranging from anemia to infections and clotting/immune system disorders. It stands as the most frequently ordered lab test, serving as a versatile diagnostic and monitoring tool.

It's that time of year when many Canadians fall short on vitamin D - an essential nutrient crucial for bone health, stabilizing mood and energy levels, and boosting immunity ☀️

Vitamin D is a powerhouse supporting muscle, immune, and nervous system functions. It's key for calcium and phosphorous absorption, maintaining bone and oral health, and combating diseases like osteoporosis.

Understanding how much vitamin D you need can be confusing, as guidelines vary depending on your age, sun exposure, and other factors. This can often lead to insufficiency, deficiency, or even toxicity in people who 'over supplement'.

Get your serum vitamin D levels checked with TapLabs to make an informed decision about vitamin D supplementation. Our comprehensive service includes a virtual health consult, at-home bloodwork and swift lab test results.

You've completed your physician-ordered bloodwork, but how do you learn your lab test results?

The turn-around-time for lab tests results is typically between 24-72 hours. Results are accessible to ordering healthcare providers on the provincial NetCare System. You can also view your lab test results on Alberta's MyHealth Records platform, a secure online portal providing direct access to patient electronic health records. Lab test results are posted for the last 18 months and new results show up as they become available.

To access your electronic health information, visit MyHealth Records and follow the steps to create an account.
