Description
Cardiovascular Check – Your blood values for a strong heart.
Take charge of your heart health – conveniently from home. With the cardiovascular check, you get important information about blood lipids, inflammation markers, and heart indicators. You collect a capillary blood sample in a tube at home; professional analysis is performed in an accredited lab. Your results are delivered securely and digitally.
The test helps you better assess your personal risk for cardiovascular diseases such as arteriosclerosis, heart attack, or heart failure—for more clarity and prevention.
Measured parameters
LDL cholesterol: “Bad” cholesterol, increases the risk of arteriosclerosis, heart attack, and stroke.
HDL cholesterol: "Good" cholesterol, protects against heart disease by removing excess cholesterol.
Triglycerides: Energy reserve in the blood; high levels increase cardiovascular risk.
Lipoprotein(a): Elevated levels promote arteriosclerosis and heart attack, important for individual risk assessment.
CRP (C-reactive protein): Inflammation marker, indicates infections, inflammation, and cardiovascular disease.
Sodium: A key electrolyte for fluid and electrolyte balance; abnormalities may indicate kidney or heart issues.
Calcium: Important for bones, muscles, and blood clotting; disruptions can pose health risks.
NT-proBNP: Sensitive heart marker, elevated in heart failure or stress, enables early diagnosis.

Cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death
Blood lipids can be detected and lowered decades before a heart attack
What is it?
LDL cholesterol carries cholesterol to the tissues. It is the most important modifiable risk factor for atherosclerosis, i.e. deposits in the vessel walls.
Who should test
Useful from middle age, with a family history of heart attack or stroke, high blood pressure, diabetes, smoking or excess weight.
Possible signs
High values cause no symptoms. They are usually found through complications or targeted check-ups.
- How to read it
- The higher LDL stays over the years, the higher the cardiovascular risk. Targets depend on overall risk; ESC/EAS guidelines suggest below 116 mg/dl (3.0 mmol/l) for healthy adults.
- Next steps
- Have high values assessed with a medical risk evaluation. Diet, exercise and quitting smoking lower LDL; medication is an option at high risk.
