Cardiovascular prevention

A genetic test to get ahead of heart disease

MyPrevention Cardio is a genetic test that determines the risk of a cardiovascular process, helping to better understand, prevent and manage conditions of the cardio-endothelial-metabolic system before symptoms appear.

It analyzes genetic markers with the highest level of scientific evidence, using innovative technology that offers greater precision and depth in the results.

Pathologies analyzed

  • Cardiovascular disease
  • Familial hypercholesterolemia
  • Hypertension
  • Thrombosis and thrombocythemia
What the test detects

Cardiovascular pathologies with a genetic component

Identifying at-risk individuals before symptoms appear is essential for preventing the morbidity and mortality associated with cardiovascular disease.

01

Cardiovascular disease

CVD is the leading cause of death in Spain, accounting for nearly 30% of all deaths. Genetically identifying at-risk individuals makes it possible to act before clinical symptoms appear.

02

Familial hypercholesterolemia

A hereditary disease present from birth, characterized by elevated LDL-cholesterol levels. It makes it possible to guide treatment according to the causal gene and identify at-risk family members.

03

Hypertension

A sustained elevation of blood pressure. Knowing the genetic predisposition to hypertension allows the specialist to establish preventive guidelines and early monitoring in at-risk patients.

04

Thrombosis and thrombocythemia

Deep vein thrombosis occurs when a clot forms in a deep vein. Thrombocythemia involves an elevated platelet count. Detecting the genetic predisposition makes it possible to adopt specific preventive measures.

Process

How the cardiovascular genetic test works

A simple, non-invasive process designed to fit into clinical practice.

Receive the test

The user receives instructions to correctly collect the sample.

Collect the sample

DNA is obtained through a saliva sample, painlessly and non-invasively.

Genetic analysis

The sample is processed to analyze genetic markers related to cardiovascular health.

Results

The report details the genetic predisposition to the main cardiovascular pathologies analyzed.

Scientific evidence

Technology and evidence in the service of preventive cardiology

MyPrevention Cardio analyzes genetic markers selected for their high level of scientific evidence, using technology that offers greater precision and depth in the results.

High level of evidence

Genetic markers selected for their demonstrated impact on cardiovascular pathologies.

Primary prevention

Risk detection before symptoms appear, for early and effective intervention.

Heritability

Identification of family members with shared genetic risk to extend prevention.

Guided treatment

Genetic information that allows the specialist to adjust and personalize therapeutic strategies.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions about MyPrevention Cardio

What is MyPrevention Cardio?

It is a cardiovascular genetic test that assesses genetic markers associated with the main pathologies of the cardiovascular system: cardiovascular disease, familial hypercholesterolemia, hypertension and thrombosis/thrombocythemia. It provides high-value information.

Who is this test aimed at?

It is designed for medical specialists in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular disease (primary care physicians, cardiologists, pediatricians). It is recommended for people with cardiovascular disease, clinical suspicion or a family history.

How is the sample collected?

The sample is obtained non-invasively through saliva. It doesn’t require blood collection, is painless and suitable for anyone of any age.

Does the test need to be repeated?

No. Your genetics doesn’t change throughout life. The analysis is performed only once and the results remain valid permanently.

How long do results take?

Once the sample is received at the lab, results are available within a maximum of 20 business days.

What’s the difference between this test and a conventional blood test?

A blood test measures current values (cholesterol, pressure, etc.) that change over time. MyPrevention Cardio analyzes your genetic predisposition, which is permanent and makes it possible to get ahead of diseases before symptoms or abnormal lab results appear.
