ABSTRACT

Blood tests request represents a group of complementary tests widely used in medicine for the study of body homeostasis. Its applications are numerous, and each discipline or speciality make use of specific parameters or biomarkers that can be helpful in order to make the diagnosis, or monitor a specific disease, as well as, evaluate the usefulness of certain drugs. Moreover, blood tests are commonly used in preoperative period. The request for indiscriminate blood tests, is completely unjustified. The idea of focused blood tests should be taken into account. Podiatrists within their profesional competences, must have the knowledge of when and how request blood tests and therefore the responsibility of its interpretation.



RESUMEN

La analítica sanguínea representa una prueba complementaria utilizada de manera generalizada en medicina para el estudio de la homeostasis corporal. Sus aplicaciones son numerosas, y en cada disciplina o especialidad existen parámetros específicos que se pueden solicitar como ayuda al diagnóstico de una patología, para monitorizar su actividad, así como para evaluar la utilidad de los fármacos utilizados. Asimismo, la analítica es utilizada de manera casi rutinaria, junto con otros test, en el periodo prequirúrgico. La solicitud de pruebas analíticas indiscriminadas no está justificada desde ningún punto de vista, por lo que se intentará hacer énfasis en la idea de peticiones dirigidas tras una sospecha clínica fundada. El podólogo, dentro de sus competencias, debe saber cómo y cuándo solicitar una analítica, y por tanto tiene la responsabilidad de saber cómo interpretarla de manera adecuada.
