Test Necessity
You will be asked to do the lipid profile test if you have any risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. These are:
- Smoking
- Sedentary lifestyle
- High blood pressure
- Diabetes
- Hereditary heart conditions
- Obesity
Abnormal lipid levels usually do not have any signs, but some health conditions like hypertension, HIV/AIDS, and chronic kidney diseases can increase lipid levels. Elevated lipid levels increase the probability of developing a cardiovascular disease as it can cause a clot in the artery.
Test Preparation
Consumption of food or sugary drinks before the lipid profile test can affect the test results. It is necessary to fast for 12 hours before the test, and eat or drink nothing apart from water.
During the Lipid Profile Test
Once the booking has been made for the lipid profile test, the phlebotomist will arrive at the specified location to collect the blood sample. The phlebotomists use sterilised needles and gloves, and a vein finder device that helps them find the ideal vein in the forearm to draw blood from. The blood is safely stored in barcoded vials, kept in cooling containers, then transported to the lab for testing.

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.
Ranges
Type of Cholesterol | Desirable Range | Borderline | High |
Total Cholesterol | <200 mg/dL | 200 - 239 mg/dL | Above 240 mg/dL |
Low-Density Cholesterol (LDL) | <100 mg/dL | 101- 159 mg/dL | Above 160 mg/dL |
High-Density Cholesterol (HDL) | More than 60 mg/dL | 40 - 59 mg/dL | Less than 40 mg/dL |
Triglycerides | <150 mg/dL | 151 - 199 mg/dL | 200 - 499 mg/dL |
VLDL | <30 mg/dL | 31 - 40 mg/dL | More than 40 mg/dL |
The values are the same for males and females.
The normal values, parameters, and reference ranges of the test may vary from lab to lab. Please refer to the ranges mentioned in the report and consult a doctor to understand the interpretation of lab reports.
