Pediatric Profile II - (£121)

The Pediatric Profile II is an advanced diagnostic panel that provides a deeper evaluation of a child’s overall health, focusing on immune function, inflammation, and metabolic balance. Building upon the Pediatric Profile I, this profile includes additional markers to assess allergic responses and immune performance, offering a more detailed insight into a child’s internal health and development.

Who is this panel for?
The Pediatric Profile II is recommended for children who require a more comprehensive health assessment, especially those experiencing frequent infections, allergies, or inflammation-related symptoms. It is also suitable for children with chronic health conditions, suspected immune deficiencies, or those requiring close monitoring of their immune and metabolic functions.

What’s different?
Unlike Pediatric Profile I, this expanded profile includes Immunoglobulin E (IgE), an important marker for allergic reactions and immune activity. Along with all the essential tests from Profile I—covering metabolic, liver, kidney, and blood health—this version adds a more detailed evaluation of inflammation and immune responses, helping to identify underlying issues early and guide effective treatment.

When to get tested?
This test is ideal for children who:
– Exhibit symptoms of allergies, such as skin rashes, sneezing, or respiratory irritation.
– Suffer from recurrent infections or have weak immune function.
– Have chronic inflammatory conditions or unexplained fatigue.
– Need a follow-up after an initial pediatric screening or immune-related diagnosis.

Is fasting required?
Fasting for 8–12 hours is recommended to ensure accurate results, particularly for glucose and cholesterol-related markers. Follow any specific instructions provided by your child’s healthcare provider.

Key benefits
The Pediatric Profile II offers a more extensive evaluation than the standard pediatric health panel by combining metabolic, organ, and immune health assessments. It helps identify allergic reactions, immune irregularities, and inflammation early, supporting proactive care and improved health outcomes for children.
