Description: Poor blood sugar regulation and unhealthy cholesterol and lipoprotein levels often manifest long before a diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes or Heart Disease. The Cardi-A1c panel offers a clinically relevant assessment of risk for AtheroSclerotic CardioVascular Disease (ASCVD), progression toward Type 2 Diabetes, and inflammation. This comprehensive panel combines our advanced Lipoprotein Particle Profile (LPP®) technology with the HbA1c test for an in-depth cardiovascular risk evaluation and long-term blood sugar monitoring.

By consistently monitoring for the reduction of blood sugar levels and lipoprotein particle numbers every 90 days, it helps assess diabetes status and heart health enabling the early detection necessary to develop effective prevention strategies.

Whether you are at high risk of heart disease, managing an existing diabetic condition, or using GLP-1 drugs sold under brand names of (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound) or their generics (Semaglutide or Tirzepatide) for diabetes or weight loss, the Cardi-A1c panel is both appropriate and recommended. This panel is specifically designed to monitor the benefits of GLP-1 usage in reducing A1c levels and preventing cardiovascular events such as heart attack, stroke, or death.
