Hydroxybutyrate Dehydrogenase – Private Testing in London

The Hydroxybutyrate Dehydrogenase is available at Wimpole Street Medical and Dental, our CQC-registered clinic in Marylebone, London W1G. This test is priced at £103. A £50 phlebotomy fee applies per visit for blood collection. It requires a venous blood sample, and results are typically available within 1 week.

Hydroxybutyrate Dehydrogenase is an enzyme test. Enzymes are proteins that catalyse chemical reactions in the body. Measuring enzyme levels helps identify which tissues or organs may be damaged or dysfunctional.

Who Should Consider the Hydroxybutyrate Dehydrogenase?

Individuals whose clinician suspects tissue damage or organ dysfunction. Elevated enzyme levels generally indicate that cells containing these enzymes have been damaged, releasing them into the bloodstream.

Enzyme levels are interpreted in context. The specific enzyme, the degree of elevation, and the clinical picture together point to the affected organ.

A trained nurse collects the blood sample by standard venepuncture, a straightforward procedure that typically takes around five minutes. Our clinic is on Wimpole Street, directly opposite Wimpole Street tube station (Piccadilly, Circle, and District lines). No GP referral is needed — book online or call 020 7183 0692.
