Heart Attack Screening

Screening For The Prevention Of Heart Attacks

Needs To Look Beyond Traditional Risk Factors . . .

Because Screening For Traditional Risk Factors:

  • High LDL
  • Low HDL
  • High Blood pressure
  • Diabetes
  • Smoking
  • Metabolic Syndrome
  • Family History
  • Sedentary Life
  • Obesity
  • Stress

While useful, traditional primary risk factors have proven insufficient to accurately identify heart attack risk; they miss too many people.*

In a study** of 136,905 patients hospitalized with CAD:

  • 77% had normal LDL (below 130 mg/dl) levels
  • 45% had normal HDL (above 40 mg/dl) levels
  • 61% had normal triglyceride (below 150 mg/dl) levels
