What is the benefit of taking the PREVU* POC Test?
The PREVU* POC Test is an independent marker for coronary artery disease (CAD). The skin cholesterol score is a mirror for the plaque deposition in the arteries. Depending on the presence of other risk factors, if the skin cholesterol score is high, then you should see your healthcare professional for more intensive preventative measures. 40% of the adult population is at an intermediate risk given traditional ways of measuring for CAD but some of those people may really be at a much higher risk since 25% of coronary events have no prior warning signs. This test can aid in determining the correct preventative path in order to lower risk.
