Optimal oxygen levels are required for proper organ growth, functioning, and upkeep.Regular testing can help determine any deficiency or excess of blood hemoglobin levels that could be causing health issues. The test can also reveal any requirement for iron supplementation in women and pregnant females.

Procedure for Haemoglobin Test
The expert typically draws blood from a vein for the test. A tiny needle can be used to prick the heel of an infant to obtain blood. An elastic band is wrapped around the upper arm to apply pressure and cause the veins to expand with blood before the blood is taken from the vein. The skin is then treated with antiseptic before the needle is inserted and the blood is collected from the vein. The band and needle are then eliminated after this treatment. To halt the blood, the specialist will apply cotton or a bandage.
Haemoglobin Test Risks/Side Effects
Tests for haemoglobin are completely risk-free. A haemoglobin test can be performed at home. A skilled phlebotomist will use a tiny needle to draw blood from a vein in your arm. The needle may cause a slight tickling when it enters or exits your body. Normally, this procedure takes under three minutes. You can eat and drink normally during this non-fasting test, unless your doctor advises otherwise.
