Join Boston Heart Diagnostics and Dr. John Stein as we explore the latest in Lp(a) testing.
High levels of lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] are an inherited risk factor for cardiovascular disease, which continues to be the leading cause of death and disability worldwide, according to the American Heart Association (AHA). Lp(a) brings 3 distinct risks to cardiovascular disease: independent atherogenic risk, thrombotic risk, and calcification of the aortic valve. Learn how new medications on the horizon will be able to help modify Lp(a) levels in the body and decrease the cardiovascular risks for your patients.
