The Advanced Cardiac Risk Profile is a comprehensive test that assesses various factors related to heart disease risk. It goes beyond basic cholesterol tests by measuring specific markers that help determine your risk of developing cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack, stroke, and atherosclerosis.

Key Components of the Profile:

• Lipid Profile: Measures total cholesterol, LDL ("bad") cholesterol, HDL ("good") cholesterol, and triglycerides.
• Apolipoproteins (Apo-A1 and Apo-B): These proteins are linked to lipid metabolism and provide insight into the balance of lipoproteins in your blood.
• Lipoprotein-A (Lpa): Elevated levels are associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease, especially in those with normal cholesterol.
• High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP): An inflammatory marker that can indicate a risk for heart disease, even in people with normal cholesterol.
• Homocysteine: Elevated levels can damage blood vessel walls, increasing the risk of heart disease and stroke.
• Fibrinogen: A protein involved in blood clotting; higher levels can increase the risk of blood clots that could cause a heart attack or stroke.

Why It’s Done:

• Assess Heart Disease Risk: Provides a comprehensive view of cardiovascular risk factors.
• Early Detection: Helps identify potential problems before they manifest into serious heart conditions.
• Personalized Treatment: Helps doctors create a more tailored plan for preventing or managing heart disease, especially for those with a family history or other risk factors.
