Cardiac Panel Profile II - (£136)

Cardiac Profile II
The Cardiac Profile II is an advanced blood test designed to deliver a complete assessment of cardiovascular, metabolic, and thyroid health. It goes beyond standard heart evaluations by analysing blood composition, inflammation, and hormonal balance, providing a detailed overview of factors influencing heart and vascular function.

Who is this panel for?
This panel is ideal for individuals who require a more comprehensive analysis of their cardiovascular health, especially those with complex medical conditions such as diabetes, thyroid disorders, or metabolic syndrome. It is also suitable for patients with a personal or family history of heart disease, high cholesterol, or hypertension, and for individuals seeking a proactive approach to monitoring long-term cardiovascular and metabolic wellness.

What’s included
In addition to standard lipid and cardiac enzyme markers, this profile measures:

Full Blood Count (FBC) + Differential: Evaluates overall blood health and detects conditions like anaemia, infection, or inflammation.

C-Reactive Protein High-Sensitivity (hsCRP): Identifies low-grade inflammation associated with increased cardiovascular risk.

Glucose & HbA1c: Assess both current and long-term blood sugar levels, key for managing diabetes and preventing heart complications.

Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH): Measures thyroid activity, as thyroid imbalances can affect heart rate, metabolism, and lipid levels.

Electrolytes & Kidney Function Tests: Includes potassium, sodium, urea, creatinine, and magnesium to monitor kidney efficiency, fluid balance, and muscle function, all vital for cardiac health.

Lipid Profile: Total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, and triglycerides to assess lipid balance and cardiovascular risk.

Cardiac Enzymes: AST, ALT, and CK to detect possible heart muscle or liver stress.

When to get tested
This profile is recommended for individuals with multiple cardiovascular risk factors, thyroid disorders, diabetes, or those monitoring recovery after cardiac events. It is also valuable for anyone pursuing a complete health review to guide preventive care and treatment adjustments.

Is fasting required?
Fasting for 8–12 hours is recommended to ensure accurate glucose and lipid readings.

Key benefits
The Cardiac Profile II provides a thorough insight into cardiovascular, metabolic, and endocrine systems. By combining heart-specific, inflammatory, and thyroid markers, this test enables early detection of risk factors, supports precise diagnosis, and helps in managing long-term health through targeted interventions.
