| Cardiovascular Risk Factor Program |
 |
Heart Disease is one of the leading causes of death in this
country.
Risk factors such as Hypertension, Diabetes,
Smoking, Family History and Elevated Cholesterol are
traditional markers that are currently employed.
Our
philosophy is that individual, detailed and specific
evaluations for heart disease needs to be performed beyond the
traditional approach.

Aggressive Laboratory Evaluation
|
|
- Ferritin-Iron stored and bound in the liver
- Homocysteine-amino acid associated with B6, B12 and folate
- Apolipoprotein Evaluation including Apo a and Apo b
- Lipoprotein a
- CRP - High Sensitivity- Important Inflammatory marker
- Fibrinogen-viscosity or thickness of blood marker
- Hormone evaluation including Testosterone levels and Sex Hormone Binding GlobulinsLipid peroxides (free radicals)
8 OH 2 DG (DNA turnover marker)
Intracellular Magnesium levels
Insulin levels
Vitamin markers including Vit C, D, A, E, folate, B6, B12
Coenzyme Q 10 levels
Omega 6 Arachodonic (bad) fatty acid levels
Omega 3 (good) fatty acids markers

Cardio VisionThis test measures blood pressure
readings at specific data points of the brachial artery. A
number is computed that represents the Arterial Stiffness
Index (ASI). It compares these data points against
previously diagnosed patients with cardiovascular disease and
arrhythmia. It interprets this data to categorize an
individual's pulse pattern. The increased ASI is considered
another risk factor in screening for presence of coronary
artery disease and cardiac arrhythmias. A printed report is
given which includes: blood pressure, pulse pressure, pulse
wave pattern, and ASI number.
