Advanced Heart Health Panel - Comprehensive Cardiovascular Assessment

Go beyond basic cholesterol testing. This advanced panel includes the markers cardiologists use to assess true cardiovascular risk: ApoB, Lp(a), homocysteine, and inflammation.

Standard cholesterol tests miss up to 50% of people at risk for heart disease. This advanced panel includes the markers that actually predict cardiovascular events:

• Lipid Panel - Standard cholesterol and triglycerides • ApoB - Counts harmful particles (better than LDL-C alone) • Lp(a) - Genetic risk factor, test once in your lifetime • Homocysteine - Linked to heart disease and B vitamin status • hs-CRP - Inflammation that drives arterial damage

Many people with "normal" cholesterol have elevated ApoB or Lp(a), putting them at significant risk. This panel reveals the complete picture.

Fasting Required

One or more tests in this panel require fasting for accurate results:

  • Do not eat or drink anything except water for 8-12 hours before your blood draw.
  • Water is allowed and encouraged - stay hydrated!
  • Schedule your lab visit in the morning for convenience.

What This Panel Measures

This panel measures 10+ markers: standard lipids (total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides), ApoB (number of harmful particles), Lp(a) (genetic risk marker), homocysteine (amino acid linked to heart disease), and hs-CRP (inflammation). Together they provide a complete cardiovascular risk assessment.

Who Should Get This Panel

Anyone with family history of heart disease (especially early heart attacks), those with elevated cholesterol, people who've had abnormal lipid results, anyone wanting comprehensive heart risk assessment, and those whose family members have had strokes or heart attacks before age 60.

When to Get Tested

Fasting for 9-12 hours is required for accurate lipid results. Lp(a) only needs to be tested once in your lifetime - it's genetically determined and doesn't change. Other markers can be tested annually.

Understanding Your Results

Key targets: LDL <100 (or <70 if high risk), ApoB <90 mg/dL (or <80 if high risk), Lp(a) <30 mg/dL (elevated is genetic - tell family to test!), homocysteine <10 µmol/L, hs-CRP <1.0 mg/L. Elevated results warrant discussion with a cardiologist.
