Only modest amounts of water (1-2 glasses) are allowed to be drunk. In the days before the blood draw, should be followed the usual diet. Excessive food intake or a restrictive diet can affect not only the laboratory results but also the clinical considerations derived from them. It is necessary to avoid physical activity in the 8-12 h before the blood draw. Some activities such as running, gym activity, may affect the determination of different values (CK, LDH, AST and others). The patient should submit to the blood draw without having taken any medications (except those prescribed by a physician). <br \/>Download Directions: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.analisialfa.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/CONSIGLI-PER-PREPARARSI-AL-PRELIEVO-DI-SANGUE.pdf\">TIPS FOR PREPARING FOR BLOOD DRAW<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner]<\/div><\/div><div class=\"clearboth\"><\/div><div class=\"sc-divider\" style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\"><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":13632,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-13635","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 -
