The Heart Health Profile Blood Test Kit includes checks that have been shown to be very important indicators of risks to a patients’ heart’s health. Including a full cholesterol profile and tests for inflammation.   

This test provides an analysis of 8 essential biomarkers including: 

• Total Cholesterol 
• HDL 
• LDL 
• HDL Ratio 
• Non-HDL Cholesterol  
• Triglyceride  
• Inflammation (C-Reactive Protein) 
• Diabetes (HbA1c) 

Process:  

This test uses a simple finger-prick blood sample, so the practitioner or patient can perform this test in clinic, alternatively the patient can carry out the test in the comfort of their own home.   

The process is quick, easy and efficient, simply take the blood sample, register the test and return it to the London Medical Laboratory using the Royal Mail 1st Class Tracked envelope included in the box. 

Results: 

A full report will be received via email with the results of all the key biomarkers, showing how the results compare with normal reference ranges. All of the test results are reviewed by London Medical Laboratory in-house GPs, who will highlight anything that may need further investigation or follow up with a doctor.** Results can come as early as the next day.* 

**It is important to note that blood tests alone are not a substitute for seeing a doctor, particularly if the patient has any symptoms. The patient should not make a diagnosis or start any treatment without a consultation with a doctor or suitably trained healthcare professional. 

*Samples will be processed on the same day as they arrive in London Laboratory, so the time it takes to get results back is dependent on Royal Mail.
