Specific Cardiac Marker Profile

The Specific Cardiac Marker Profile offered by healthcare nt sickcare is a comprehensive diagnostic panel that assesses the risk of developing cardiac diseases. This profile includes the following tests:

1. High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP) Test: This test is used to evaluate inflammation in the body, which is a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Elevated levels of hs-CRP may indicate an increased risk of developing coronary artery disease, heart attack, and stroke.
2. Lipoprotein (A) [Lp(a)] Test: Lp(a) is a type of cholesterol particle that is strongly associated with an increased risk of developing heart disease. This test measures the level of Lp(a) in the blood and helps identify individuals who are at a higher risk of developing heart disease.
3. Homocysteine Test: Homocysteine is an amino acid that is produced by the body and can damage the lining of the blood vessels. Elevated levels of homocysteine in the blood have been linked to an increased risk of developing heart disease. This test measures the level of homocysteine in the blood.
4. ApoB: ApoA1 Ratio Test: This test measures the ratio of Apolipoprotein B (ApoB) to Apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1) in the blood. ApoB is a protein that is present in LDL cholesterol and is associated with an increased risk of heart disease. ApoA1, on the other hand, is a protein that is present in HDL cholesterol and is associated with a decreased risk of heart disease. The ApoB: ApoA1 ratio is a better predictor of heart disease risk than traditional cholesterol tests.

These tests are performed using state-of-the-art technology and are analyzed by experienced professionals to provide accurate results. By getting tested for these markers, individuals can identify their risk of developing heart disease and take steps to prevent it.
