Medical Examination for Freshman in University : Discussion of Availability in Blood Examination
Year: 2001
Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: A health survey and blood examination were carried out on university freshman with their consent in April, and their usefulness for health care was examined. Some 2949 students out of 3479 freshmen were examined during the 3 years from 1995 to 1997, and the examination rate was 84.3%. As a result of the blood examination, 36 male students (1.9%), 93 female students (9.2%) were found to have anemia. The usefulness was confirmed from the liver function test, which revealed high GOT and GPT in a freshman, and another with hepatitis virus detected by a secondary examination. However, a cost-benefit analysis also seemed necessary.
