Blood tests to prevent thrombosis
Thrombosis is usually of great concern because it can cause serious health complications, in extreme cases even pulmonary embolism. The positive news is that with effective prevention we can reduce the risk of thrombus to a minimum. What measures can help?
The basic recommendations for the prevention of thrombosis include a healthy lifestyle, especially sufficient exercise, absence of smoking, regular measurement of blood pressure and cholesterol levels. It is a good idea to keep your weight under control and to follow a good drinking regime. However, in addition to these risk factors, which can be significantly influenced by our behaviour, there are also genetic predispositions.
Our thrombosis prevention package can detect inborn predispositions to increased blood clotting by performing a genetic analysis of the thrombophilic mutation of the F5 and F2 genes and evaluating other indicators. The level of risk should be known especially by people who suffer from varicose veins, pregnant women and women who are taking or considering hormonal contraception. Symptoms of thrombosis are easy to miss and tend to be subtle. Therefore, do not delay the examination and make an appointment with us as soon as possible.
The package includes the following indicators:
- Factor VIII - determination of activity
- Homocysteine
- F5 Leiden - R506Q, Q1691A
- F2 - Prothrombin - G20210A
- Detection of C677T substitution of MTHFR gene
- Detection of A1298C substitution of MTHFR gene
Package validity is 1 year from purchase.
