Heart check-up

Complete blood tests to monitor cardiovascular health

The CalatafimiMed Healthy Heart Check-up gives an in-depth assessment of how the heart and circulatory system are working, identifying the main risk factors early and supporting effective cardiac prevention.

Many heart problems develop silently, causing symptoms only when the damage is already advanced. Signs that the heart may be under strain or not working properly include:

– Fatigue, exhaustion and general tiredness;

– Dizziness, fainting and changes in blood pressure;

– Palpitations and arrhythmias, with an irregular heartbeat;

– Swelling of the arms and legs;

– Breathing difficulties, shortness of breath and blurred vision;

– Pain in the back, legs, jaw or arms.

Specific blood tests can identify the main causes of heart and coronary disease, monitoring key parameters such as:

– Clotting tests and in-depth metabolic analyses;

– HDL and LDL cholesterol and triglycerides, indicators of cardiovascular risk;

– Blood sugar, which when high may indicate diabetes;

– LDH and CPK, cardiac enzymes that can indicate heart damage, such as a heart attack;

– Minerals, whose imbalance can favour arrhythmias;

– Dysproteinaemia, that is, changes in the concentration of proteins in the blood.

Thanks to these tests, CalatafimiMed helps monitor the health of the heart and prevent complications, providing essential data for managing cardiovascular wellbeing.

The CalatafimiMed Heart check-up includes the following tests: full blood count with differential – ESR – total cholesterol – HDL cholesterol – LDL cholesterol – triglycerides – glucose – chloride – potassium – sodium – calcium – phosphorus – creatinine – homocysteine – urea – CPK – LDH – prothrombin time (PT) – apolipoprotein A1 – apolipoprotein B – ApoA1/ApoB ratio – protein electrophoresis – total protein
