Please note, this screening is for people who do not have any symptoms of a cardiac event and have not had a heart attack or stroke in the past. If you have any chest pain, shortness of breath, numbness or tingling in your arms, please call 111 or 999. If you have suffered a heart attack or stroke in the past and you are looking for ways to minimise any future risk, please book a 20,30 or 40-minute GP consultation
If you have not had in the past and do not currently have symptoms of a cardiac event, you can have the Cardiovascualr Screening which is made up of the following:
ECG - This will check your heart for any rhythm abnormalities
Blood Pressure & Heart Murmur Check
Blood tests - The tests are made up of the following profiles.
Lipid Profile - LIPP Profile
- Triglycerides
- Cholesterol
- HDL Cholesterol
- LDL Cholesterol (Calculated)
- Non-HDL Cholestero
High Risk Cardio Profile - DOR8
- Lipoprotein (a)
- High-sensitivity c-reactive protein (hsCRP)
- NT-pro BNP
It has now been proven that as well as high levels of bad cholersterol (LDL), a high level of Lipoprotein (a) can increase your chances of a heart attack or stroke (a cardiac event). Unfortunately, a high level of lipoprotein (a) is caused by genetics and is not linked to diet and exercise. Therefore, you can be very fit and healthy and have the perfect cholesterol, but your chances of a cardiac event as you get older are still increased.
If it is discovered you have a higher level of lipoprotein (a) than normal, then we will advise a strict risk reduction plan to prevent a cardiac problem in the future.
High-sensitivity CRP (hsCRP) is a marker of inflammation. A high level of this in the blood has been linked to heart attacks. Also, people who have had a heart attack are more likely to have another heart attack if they have a high (hs-CRP) level.
NT-pro BNP is a hormone released by the heart when the ventricles are
stretched e.g. by fluid overload. NT-pro BNP is a primary screening tool for the diagnosis/exclusion of heart failure.
