A lipid profile test assesses and eliminates risk factors like high cholesterol, smoking, obesity, sedentary lifestyle, high blood pressure, diabetes, or a family history of heart disease. Children having hereditary, dietary, or obesity-related concerns are also advised to take the test periodically. The test not only measures cholesterol levels but also enables an effective diagnosis of conditions like pancreatitis, chronic kidney disease, and hypothyroidism.

A lipid profile test is mostly a part of a routine health check-up. A proactive approach involving regular check ups reduces the risk of major health scares associated with cardiovascular complications. A timely diagnosis ensures that an effective treatment plan can be adopted coupled with the necessary lifestyle modifications.

The lipid profile test time is advised to be in the morning before breakfast as fasting for 10 to 12 hours before the test is necessary. This means you have to abstain from consuming any food or drinks except water during this period.

During the Lipid Profile Test

When you book a lipid profile test in Mumbai, a vaccinated phlebotomist will visit at your desired time to collect your test sample. During the test, the phlebotomists wear masks and gloves for complete safety. A fresh kit with a sterilised, sealed needle is used to draw a small blood sample. The sample is then stored in a fresh barcoded vial and placed in a cooling container. The entire sample collection process is completed within 5 to 10 minutes.

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

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.
