Proactive genetic testing and general cardiac examination
General cardiac examination and predictive genetic testing for detection of inherited diseases of the cardiovascular system - Proactive genetic tests, include:
- clinical examination, 12-channel electrocardiogram, ultrasound of the heart, and ergometry if necessary, 24-hour continuous monitoring and recording of cardiac activity (blood pressure Holter and ECG Holter)
- medical-biochemical laboratory diagnostics (KKS, DKS, Cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, VLDL-cholesterol, triglycerides)
- analysis of 77 genes associated with arrhythmias, cardiomyopathies, high blood pressure, and cholesterol, as well as blood clotting disorders
Who is recommended to do a proactive genetic test and general cardiac examination?
- Anyone who wants to know more about the existence of possible pathogenic mutations associated with cardiovascular diseases
- Healthy people without cardiovascular diseases in the family
- Healthy people in whom there is no proven pathogenic (hereditary) mutation in the family
- Persons who have symptoms suggesting the existence of one of the diseases associated with pathological mutations that can be analyzed by this genetic test
