Test your Blood Circulation

Fibrinogen is a protein that is converted to fibrin, which helps form blood clots and is needed to prevent bleeding disorders. Increased fibrinogen activity is associated with a greater risk of cardiovascular events.

This test is useful if you are taking the anticoagulant medication Coumadin (warfarin). Prothrombin time (PT) and partial thromboplastin time (PTT) are included in blood coagulation profiles.

Concerned about clotting and strokes? This panel includes tests for inflammatory/clotting markers, insulin resistance markers, lipid markers, blood cells, kidney function and liver function as well as other markers included in a CBC/chemistry panel.

This test assesses for blood flow resistance, which can be increased by inflammation and several other disorders.

Research shows that about 25% of individuals are resistant to the beneficial effects of aspirin. The Aspirinworks™ Urine Test can determine if you’re one of them, which is important if you take this over-the-counter medication to stave off a cardiac event.

Are you at risk for increased plaque on your arteries? Testing for myeloperoxidase (MPO) measures levels of an enzyme that oxidizes low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, which could lead to increased arterial plaque formation.

Lp-PLA2 activity helps predict whether you're at risk for a cardiac event. This test measures the function of lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2), an inflammatory marker critical in rupture-prone plaque formation.
