The Cardiac Profile offered by MedEx Neo Clinic is a comprehensive set of tests specifically designed to assess and evaluate the overall cardiac health of individuals. This panel includes a range of tests that provide valuable insights into cardiac function, enzyme levels, and lipid profile, aiding in the early detection, diagnosis, and management of various cardiac conditions.
The Cardiac Profile includes tests for CPK (Creatine Phosphokinase), CPK-MB (Creatine Phosphokinase-MB), LDH (Lactate Dehydrogenase), and SGOT (Serum Glutamic Oxaloacetic Transaminase). These enzymes are released into the bloodstream when the heart muscle is damaged or stressed, and their levels can indicate myocardial infarction (heart attack) or other cardiac events. Monitoring these enzyme levels helps assess cardiac health and determine the extent of any potential damage or injury.
Troponin(I) is another important test included in the Cardiac Profile. Troponin(I) is a protein released into the blood when there is damage to the heart muscle. Elevated Troponin(I) levels can indicate acute myocardial infarction or other cardiac conditions. This test is highly sensitive and specific for detecting cardiac injury.
The panel also incorporates tests for Cholesterol, Triglycerides, HDL Cholesterol (High-Density Lipoprotein), and LDL Cholesterol (Low-Density Lipoprotein). These lipid profile tests help evaluate the levels of fats and cholesterol in the blood. Elevated levels of LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and low levels of HDL cholesterol are associated with an increased risk of developing cardiovascular diseases, such as coronary artery disease. Monitoring lipid levels aids in assessing cardiovascular risk and implementing appropriate lifestyle modifications and interventions to manage and prevent heart disease.
Overall, the Cardiac Profile offered by MedEx Neo Clinic provides a comprehensive assessment of various parameters related to cardiac health. These tests help evaluate cardiac enzyme levels, detect cardiac injury or stress, and assess lipid profiles, enabling early detection and management of cardiac conditions. This profile is useful for individuals with suspected cardiac problems and those seeking a comprehensive evaluation of their cardiovascular health. Timely identification and managing cardiac risk factors can lead to improved outcomes and a healthier heart.
