Why Get Checked
Benefits of an Annual Health Checkup
Today, health risks surround us from many directions — environmental pollution, dust, chemical contamination, stress, unhealthy habits, genetics, and advancing age all contribute to illness and serious disease. An annual health checkup is essential for understanding your body's condition, catching abnormalities or disease risks before symptoms appear, or recognizing a disease at a stage that is still easier to treat.
Before Your Checkup
Preparing for Your Annual Health Checkup
Get Enough Rest
Sleep at least 6–8 hours before your checkup, as fatigue can affect blood pressure and heart rate readings
Follow Fasting Guidelines
Fast at least 8 hours for blood sugar tests and 12 hours for lipid tests. Avoid alcohol for at least 24 hours, and avoid tea, coffee, and smoking before your checkup
Prepare Your Health Information
Report any illnesses, chemical exposure, abnormal symptoms, or chronic conditions, and bring prior test results to support the physician's diagnosis
Notify Us If Pregnant
If you are pregnant or suspect you may be, inform staff before your checkup, as some tests such as chest X-rays may affect pregnancy
Wear Comfortable Clothing
Wear loose, comfortable clothing suitable for examination. Women should avoid underwire garments before X-rays
Checkup Process
Annual Health Checkup Process
02
Weight & Height Measurement (Weight-Height)
Weight and height are used to calculate Body Mass Index (BMI, in kg/m²) to assess whether your weight is within a healthy range and to evaluate disease risk. Being overweight or obese raises the risk of conditions such as hypertension, high cholesterol, diabetes, heart disease, stroke, gallbladder disease, osteoarthritis, sleep apnea, and various cancers, and can limit fitness for high-risk jobs such as confined-space or working-at-heights work. A BMI below the healthy range can also affect physical performance and increase susceptibility to infection.
Tips for maintaining a healthy weight
- Eat a balanced diet across all 5 food groups in adequate amounts
- Get at least 6-8 hours of sleep
- Exercise regularly, at least 30-50 minutes a day, 3-5 days a week (consult a doctor if you have an underlying condition)
03
History Taking & Blood Pressure Check (Blood pressure)
Blood pressure measurement assesses the risk of hypertension, which can lead to conditions such as stroke, coronary heart disease, kidney failure, aortic aneurysm, and paralysis.
What to do during blood pressure measurement
- Sit comfortably, don't tense your arm or talk while your blood pressure is being measured
- Give staff accurate information to help with interpreting your results and the doctor's diagnosis
- If you feel short of breath, rest for 5-10 minutes before the measurement
04
Muscle Strength Test (Muscle test)
Tests the strength of muscles used in daily work, covering grip strength, leg strength, and back strength.
Tips for the muscle strength test
- It's recommended to do this test before blood collection. If blood has already been drawn, please complete other checkpoints first before this one, to avoid bruising from bleeding under the skin.
Who should not take the muscle strength test
- Those who are pregnant or suspect they may be pregnant
- Those with an injury to the muscle being tested, e.g. arm, leg, or back muscles
- Those within 3 months of surgery
05
Blood Collection
Blood tests are laboratory diagnostic tests — many illnesses cannot be diagnosed instantly, so blood tests reveal abnormalities such as blood cell count, anemia or thalassemia, lipid levels, blood sugar, and liver, kidney, and thyroid function.
What to do during blood collection
- We recommend offering your non-dominant arm to staff for the draw
- After the draw, press the site for 1-2 minutes to help stop bleeding. Don't bend your arm, massage the area, or strain that arm, as this can cause blood to leak under the skin and bruise
- If you're afraid of needles or feel faint or your heart races, tell staff before the draw
06
Physical Examination
A physician examination to assess your current state of health and identify any underlying abnormalities. If you have any illness, chemical exposure, unusual symptoms, or a pre-existing condition or health history, please inform the doctor. If you have prior test results or a doctor's report, please bring them to support the diagnosis.
07
Lung Function Test (Spirometry)
Tests lung function by measuring the volume of air breathed in and out, assessing restriction, expansion, or obstruction of the lungs. This test can indicate declining lung function before symptoms appear.
Tips for the lung function test
- Avoid eating a heavy meal for at least 1 hour before the test
- If you use a bronchodilator, you should stop before the test
Who should not take the lung function test
- Those who are pregnant or suspect they may be pregnant, or feel faint
- Those within 3 months of abdominal surgery
- Those with a respiratory infection or high blood pressure
- No exercise before the test
08
Occupational Vision Test
Measures binocular vision at near and far range, visual acuity, depth perception (3D vision), color vision, and visual field — for workers who drive vehicles or work around moving objects — to assess whether their eyesight is suitable and safe for their job.
Tips for the occupational vision test
- Tell staff about your job duties and department so they can select the right test for your role
- Answer staff based on the images you see in the test equipment
- On the day of your checkup, your eyes should not be impaired in a way that hinders vision, e.g. eye pain, redness, or eye strain from work
- If you wear glasses or contact lenses for work, please bring them to the test
09
Hearing Screening (Screening audiometry)
Tests hearing for those exposed to workplace noise risk, to screen for potential noise-induced hearing loss. Tested across the 500-8,000 Hz range, from low frequencies (like conversation) to high frequencies (like machinery noise), to identify anyone with abnormal hearing so they can be referred to a specialist and receive protection to prevent further deterioration.
Tips for the hearing screening
- Avoid loud noise for at least 12 hours before the test. If unavoidable, wear hearing protection or leave the noisy area for at least 15 minutes before the test
- Tell staff about any hearing problems
- If you feel unwell, have a cold, or have ringing ears, tell staff, as these can affect your results
- Wear the headphones snugly. Staff will play a tone and gradually lower the volume to find the softest level you can hear — press the response button every time you hear a tone, even if very faint
10
Chest X-Ray
Assesses the physical structure of the chest, such as the lungs, heart size, spine, and diaphragm, and can detect early-stage tuberculosis.
If an abnormality is found
- White patches on the lung:
- You should see a specialist (internal medicine, pulmonology) for further diagnosis
- Enlarged heart:
- Often found in those with high blood pressure or blocked arteries from fat buildup, which makes the heart work harder. If clearly enlarged, see a cardiologist for further diagnosis (note: incomplete inhalation during the X-ray can also make the heart appear larger than it is)
- Curved spine (scoliosis):
- Found at any age, most often in growing teenagers (more common in females) or in adults as the body ages. If mild or painless, seeing a doctor isn't necessary; if severe, an orthopedic specialist is recommended
- Old lesion or calcification:
- A trace of previous internal inflammation that the body has since healed — not a health risk
Tips for the chest X-ray
- Avoid wearing clothing with any metal parts, or an underwire bra for women
- Remove everything from pockets or the chest area to prevent metal from obscuring any findings
Who should not take a chest X-ray
- Those who are pregnant or suspect they may be pregnant should not be X-rayed
11
Electrocardiogram (EKG)
Measures the electrical signals the heart produces as it beats via electrodes placed on the body, showing your heart rate as a graph. It provides an initial assessment of heart conditions such as heart rhythm, electrical conduction, an enlarged heart, or damaged or ischemic heart muscle. Recommended for those with heart disease risk factors, e.g. high cholesterol, smoking, diabetes, or working in confined spaces or at heights. If an abnormality is found, see a cardiologist for further diagnosis.
Tips for the EKG
- Remove all jewelry and metal objects, and turn off all communication devices
- Lie comfortably with your arms at your sides and remain still during the test
- Avoid energy drinks, tea, coffee, and smoking before the test
12
Urine Collection (Urinalysis)
A urine sample is used to assess kidney disease, diabetes, urinary tract infection, urinary tract injury, pH, color, and sediment in urine — which may indicate stones or uric acid crystals — as well as chemical buildup for those exposed to hazardous chemicals at work. If an abnormality is found, further diagnosis by a doctor may be needed.
Tips for collecting a urine sample
- Clean the urethral opening with clean water and dry it
- Discard the first bit of urine, then collect the mid-stream into the container to at least 20 ml or 2/3 full
- Deliver the sample to the designated collection point
13
Stool Examination Collection
A stool sample is used to check for intestinal parasites or in related organs. Correct collection and delivery methods are needed for reliable results, and because parasite egg distribution in stool is uneven, samples should be taken from multiple spots within the same sample, and repeated testing helps improve detection rates. Stool examination also assesses digestive function, including absorption and other conditions.
What the doctor examines in a stool sample
- Consistency:
- Loose, formed, presence of mucus, presence of blood
- Color:
- Stool color reflects both diet and bile secreted from the gallbladder as well as bleeding in the digestive tract. White stool may indicate bile duct obstruction; black stool may indicate stomach bleeding; fresh blood indicates bleeding from the large intestine
- Parasite eggs:
- Checked under a microscope
- Occult (hidden) blood:
- Sometimes there's too little blood to see with the naked eye, so a chemical reaction test is used. A positive result indicates bleeding somewhere in the digestive tract, which may be caused by a stomach ulcer, digestive tract cancer, or severe hemorrhoids
Tips for collecting a stool sample
- Use the swab to collect a finger-tip-sized amount of freshly passed stool. If there's mucus or blood present, collect from that area
- Place the swab into the opaque sample container and seal the lid tightly
- Place the sealed container into a zip bag and deliver it to the designated collection point
14
Stool Culture Collection
A stool culture sample is used to detect pathogens in the digestive tract, such as Vibrio cholerae (cholera), Salmonella typhi (typhoid), Salmonella paratyphi (paratyphoid), and Shigella spp. (dysentery).
Tips for collecting a stool culture sample
- Dip the cotton swab briefly into the culture medium tube
- Insert the swab 1-1.5 inches into the rectum and rotate gently to contact the rectal mucosa
- Insert the used swab all the way to the bottom of the culture tube
- Seal the culture tube lid tightly and deliver the sample to the designated collection point
