NS Pre-Enlistment Screening Package $588 (before GST)<\/h2>\n

National Service is a rite of passage all male Singaporeans and second-generation permanent residents go through when they reach the age of 18. The two-year period as full-time National Servicemen is extremely physically demanding, especially during the Basic Military Training (BMT) period. Enlistees with undiagnosed congenital or acquired cardiac diseases face the risk of sudden cardiac death when put through the rigours of extreme physical exertion.<\/p>\n

Aims of the Screening Package<\/h2>\n

This screening package serves to provide a more thorough evaluation of the pre-enlistee\u2019s cardiovascular status, detecting any significant underlying structural or coronary artery disease not obvious to the untrained eye, so as to reduce the incidence of sudden cardiac death during National Service.<\/p>\n
