The goal is to offer high-quality diagnostic services to the people of the country at an affordable price, reducing the need for patients to seek medical treatment abroad and spend their hard-earned foreign currency. This will be achieved by providing diagnostic services that meet international standards. Additionally, renowned General Practitioners, Consultants, and Professors in various medical fields will provide outpatient treatment. The focus is also on promoting health education and medical services. A day care center will be established to cater to follow-up care for cardiac, renal, and oncology patients. The long-term objective is to establish a fully equipped specialized hospital offering tertiary medical services. Furthermore, the plan includes the establishment of satellite collection centers.

Growth Hormone Stimulation Test
The Growth Hormone Stimulation Test measures the pituitary gland's ability to produce growth hormone (GH) and is used to diagnose GH deficiency. Preparation involves fasting for 8-12 hours and avoiding vigorous exercise the day before. During the test, an IV is inserted, and specific medications (e.g., insulin, arginine, or clonidine) are administered to stimulate GH release. Blood samples are taken at intervals over 2-3 hours to track GH levels. The procedure is generally safe, though side effects like dizziness, nausea, or low blood sugar may occur. Low GH levels in response to stimulation may confirm GH deficiency. Factors like stress, medications, or improper fasting can influence results.1400 BDT
