topicLogo Blood test

A blood test is a laboratory analysis performed on a blood sample that is usually extracted from a vein in the arm using a needle , or via fingerprick . Blood tests are used to determine physiological and biochemical states, such as disease , mineral content, drug effectiveness, and organ function. They are also used in drug tests . Although the term blood test is used, most routine tests (except for most haematology ) are done on blood plasma instead of blood cells .
