Test Necessity
The Lipid panel is important for screening and monitoring the lipid levels in the bloodstream. Abnormal lipid levels can indicate heart disease risk, helping in early prevention and treatment. It is also used, along with other additional tests, to diagnose certain health conditions like hypothyroidism, chronic kidney disease, and pancreatitis.
Test Preparation
The only preparation you will need for this test is to undergo fasting for a minimum of 12 hours. Please note that you cannot eat anything during this period. You are allowed to drink water. After the test, you can eat and drink normally.

Risks and Limitations
Risks / Possible Complications
A Lipid Profile Test is a commonly performed blood test that rarely leads to complications. If you encounter any of the following, seek medical advice promptly:
- Continuous bleeding from the puncture area
- Pain or swelling at the collection site
Limitations
- Possible interference with test outcomes caused by errors made by either the machine or the operator
- Risk of misinterpreting the markers
Test Result Interpretation
The four main components of the lipid profile test are Total Cholesterol, Triglycerides, HDL and LDL.
The Total Cholesterol to HDL ratio is not more important than the actual values. If the lipid profile report has a higher than usual reading for Total Cholesterol, it is diagnostic of dyslipidaemia. Dyslipidaemia, if left unchecked, increases the chances of atherosclerosis and subsequent heart attacks.
