Blood Testing Jacobus, Pennsylvania
A blood test performed in Jacobus, PA is a laboratory analysis performed on a blood sample that is usually extracted from a vein in the arm using a hypodermic needle, or via fingerprick. Multiple tests for specific blood components, such as a glucose test or a cholesterol test, are often grouped together into one test panel called a blood panel or blood work. Blood tests are often used in health care to determine physiological and biochemical states, such as disease, mineral content, pharmaceutical drug effectiveness, and organ function. Typical clinical blood panels include a basic metabolic panel or a complete blood count. Blood tests are also used in drug tests to detect drug abuse.
A basic metabolic panel measures sodium, potassium, chloride, bicarbonate, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), magnesium, creatinine, glucose, and sometimes calcium. Tests that focus on cholesterol levels can determine LDL and HDL cholesterol levels, as well as triglyceride levels.
Some tests, such as those that measure glucose or a lipid profile, require fasting (or no food consumption) eight to twelve hours prior to the drawing of the blood sample.
For the majority of tests, blood is usually obtained from the patient's vein. Other specialized tests, such as the arterial blood gas test, require blood extracted from an artery. Blood gas analysis of arterial blood is primarily used to monitor carbon dioxide and oxygen levels related to pulmonary function, but is also used to measure blood pH and bicarbonate levels for certain metabolic conditions.[While the regular glucose test is taken at a certain point in time, the glucose tolerance test involves repeated testing to determine the rate at which glucose is processed by the body.

STDs do not always cause symptoms, or they may only cause mild symptoms. This makes it very possible to have an infection and not know it. Therefore, if you are sexually active it is important to get tested at least once a year.

Local Area Info: Jacobus, Pennsylvania
Founded in 1837, Jacobus was originally called New Paradise. The name was later changed because of misdelivered mail between New Paradise and the town of Paradise, Pennsylvania in neighboring Lancaster County.
The name Jacobus (j?-K?-b?s) was derived from the name of the town's postmaster, Jacob Geiselman (1829-1909). To correct the problem of the misdelivered mail, the United States Post Office Department notified Geiselman to change the name of the post office. However, Geiselman was unable to think of another name. Therefore, the mail was sorted and forwarded to Geiselman labeled as,"Jacob-US Mail;" which was later shortened to "Jacob-US." The post office was then renamed Jacobus, and the town was renamed accordingly. In 1929, Jacobus became an incorporated Borough under Pennsylvania law. see Borough (Pennsylvania).
As of the census of 2000, there were 1,203 people, 481 households, and 379 families residing in the borough. The population density was 1,316.0 people per square mile (510.4/km²).
