- Risk Stratification: The profile helps in determining an individual’s risk of developing heart disease, enabling healthcare providers to tailor preventive strategies and interventions based on the person’s risk level.

Cardiac Risk Blood Profile Tests in Leicester
Below are the key blood tests used to assess Cardiac Health, each focusing on a specific hormone or indicator. Please confirm the package you are looking for.
Apolipoprotein A (Apo A) is the main protein in HDL (“good” cholesterol), while Apolipoprotein B (Apo B) is found in LDL and other “bad” lipoproteins. High Apo B and low Apo A levels are linked to increased cardiovascular risk, offering a clearer lipid risk profile than cholesterol alone.
Fibrinogen is a blood plasma protein essential for clot formation. Elevated levels may indicate inflammation or increased clotting risk, while low levels can lead to bleeding disorders. It’s used to assess bleeding risk and inflammatory status.
High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hsCRP) detects low levels of inflammation and helps assess cardiovascular risk. Elevated hsCRP suggests a higher risk for heart disease, stroke, or chronic inflammatory conditions. It’s useful in heart health monitoring.
Homocysteine is an amino acid in the blood. Elevated levels are linked to a higher risk of heart disease, stroke, and blood clots. High homocysteine may result from vitamin B6, B12, or folate deficiencies and is used to assess cardiovascular and nutritional health.
A lipid profile measures total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, and triglycerides to assess cardiovascular risk. High LDL or triglycerides and low HDL levels increase heart disease risk. It helps guide lifestyle or treatment decisions for heart health.
Lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is a type of LDL cholesterol linked to increased risk of cardiovascular disease. High Lp(a) levels promote plaque buildup in arteries and blood clotting. It’s a genetic risk factor not routinely lowered by lifestyle changes.
Lp-PLA2 (Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2) is an enzyme linked to inflammation in artery walls. The PLAC test measures its levels to assess risk of cardiovascular disease and stroke. Elevated Lp-PLA2 indicates increased plaque inflammation and heart risk.

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, please book an appointment with us. Symptoms can vary from person to person and from condition to condition.A proper diagnosis can only be made through a thorough medical examination.
Our clinicians will carry out a full assessment to ensure an accurate diagnosis and appropriate care.
Do you have chest discomfort or tightness during activity?
Chest pressure or tightness on exertion may indicate reduced blood flow to the heart. A cardiac risk blood profile helps assess underlying cardiovascular risk factors.
Do you experience shortness of breath with mild activity?
Breathlessness during everyday tasks may be linked to reduced cardiovascular efficiency or early heart strain requiring further investigation.
Do you have persistent fatigue or low energy?
Ongoing tiredness can be associated with poor cardiovascular health, inflammation, or metabolic imbalance that may increase heart risk.
Do you have a family history of heart disease or high cholesterol?
A strong family history increases your risk of cardiovascular disease. Blood testing helps identify inherited or early risk markers.
Do you have high blood pressure or borderline readings?
Elevated blood pressure can increase strain on the heart and arteries, raising long-term cardiovascular risk if not monitored.
Do you want to understand your heart health risk early?
Even without symptoms, cardiovascular disease can develop silently. A cardiac risk profile helps detect early warning signs.
