FAQs on Cardiac Profile Test Package

What are the tests for cardiac risk markers?

ECG – to check irregular heart rate or arrhythmias and heart attack
Lipid Profile – to measure the levels of cholesterol, fat and triglycerides in the blood
SGOT – to measure the level of AST in blood. A higher level of AST may indicate heart muscle damage.
CPK – CPK is an enzyme released by a damaged organ. A high CPK level means heart muscle tissue damage.
CPK (MB) – to detect heart injury or cell damage
LDH – to identify heart attack or cardiac tissue damage

What is the best blood test for cardiac risk?

A lipid panel and CPK-MB tests are best to detect cardiac risk.

CPK-MB test is a cardiac marker that diagnoses heart muscle damage or myocardial infarction.
A lipid panel measures lipid levels in the bloodstream. A high lipid profile connotes there are substantial blockages in the blood vessels, leading to conditions like coronary artery disease, cardiac arrest and stroke.

Can lipid profile detect heart disease?

Yes, a lipid profile detects the fat and cholesterol levels in the blood. Lipids are sticky fat substances that build up on artery walls, preventing blood from passing through and reaching the heart, causing cardiovascular diseases.

What is a normal lipid level?

Normal lipid levels for an adult are as follows:

Total Cholesterol – under 200 mg/dL
LDL or Bad Cholesterol – under 100 mg/dL
HDL or Good Cholesterol – 60 mg/dL or above

Is fasting necessary for a lipid profile test?
