Description

In Spain, cardiovascular diseases have become the leading cause of death. However, many of these deaths can be avoided by preventing and controlling cardiovascular risk factors.

Currently, 31% of the population aged 35 to 65 have two cardiovascular risks, and 6% three. In most cases, the presence of these risk factors is closely related to living habits and modifiable biochemical factors.

To know the risk that a person has of suffering a cardiovascular event in the medium-long term it is essential to know the factors it presents. Therefore, from Eurofins LGS Megalab offer a concrete analysis to know the factors it presents and determine the dangers of suffering from cardiovascular disease.

Specialists recommend performing this test every year.

Cardiovascular risk factors can be classified into two groups: modifiable and non-modifiable. The first of them can be changed by modifying life habits and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Modifiable risk factors: tobacco, alcohol, sedentary lifestyle, poor diet, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, abdominal obesity, diabetes mellitus, stress, etc.

Non-modifiable risk factors: age, sex, family history, and genetic predisposition factors.

The cardiovascular risk analysis is especially indicated in patients with this profile:

  • Persons aged 35 to 65 classified as intermediate or high cardiovascular risk
  • People with a family history of cardiovascular disease
  • Classified people with low risk and no family history

Before performing the analysis, you must go through an 8-hour fast and have a light dinner the night before.
