What's included

6 deliverables in this treatment

  • Fasting venous blood draw at the Brno-Starý Lískovec collection room
  • Full lipid profile: total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, triacylglycerols
  • Fasting glucose
  • Homocysteine
  • Enzymes: creatine kinase (CK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), aspartate aminotransferase (AST)
  • Results typically within 24 hours

An extended cardiovascular-risk panel that goes beyond a standard lipid profile by adding glucose, homocysteine and the enzymes CK, LDH and AST to the four lipid fractions. The result is a broader picture of measurable factors linked to atherosclerosis — the artery-narrowing process behind most heart attacks and strokes. Drawn fasting at the ISO 15189-accredited Brno-Starý Lískovec laboratory, with results usually within 24 hours.

About this treatment

Ateroskleróza (Atherosclerosis) is a self-pay package built to characterise the modifiable factors that drive atherosclerosis — the gradual narrowing and hardening of arteries that is a leading cause of myocardial infarction and stroke. It combines a full lipid profile (total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol and triacylglycerols) with fasting glucose, homocysteine and a trio of enzymes — creatine kinase (CK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and…

This package suits people who want more than a basic cholesterol check — for example those with a family history of early heart disease, established risk factors, or simply a wish to understand their cardiovascular profile in more depth. Because several markers are sensitive to recent intake, the draw must be taken fasting (nalačno): no food and no sweetened or alcoholic drinks for 12 hours beforehand, and not after a night shift. Sampling is a standard…

Results are typically available within 24 hours, collected in person against signature and ID or via secure electronic delivery arranged at the collection room. Compared with the narrower Lipid Metabolism panel, this package adds the metabolic and enzymatic context that helps put a raised cholesterol into perspective, and compared with the ApoE genotyping it measures current biochemistry rather than inherited predisposition. Results are best read together…
