Heart Failure (Dilated Cardiomyopathy)

  • Heart failure is a chronic, progressive condition in which your heart muscle can’t pump enough blood to meet your body’s needs all the time.
  • BioAro Heart Failure panel tests the most frequent 14 genes responsible for causing heart disease.
  • The test helps patients and physicians in timely diagnosis by identifying the underlying reason for heart failure and appropriate clinical management.

Hypertension

  • Persistent and prolonged increase in blood pressure is commonly referred to as Hypertension
  • BioAro Hypertension panel includes 12 genes, which can help asses the risk of developing hypertension, particularly if both the parents are affected.
  • This test can also be customized to include additional genes (or other diseases also e.g. Hyperlipidemia).

Ischemic heart disease (IHD)

  • Ischemic Heart Disease (IHD) occurs due to blockage in one or more arteries supplying blood to the heart muscle itself.
  • It can be a precursor for several other fatal diseases including heart failure, sudden cardiac death etc.
  • BioAro panel examines 8 genes commonly associated with IHD.

Lipid Genomic Test Panels

Hyperlipidemia is a condition associated with an increase in triglycerides and cholesterol and reduced levels of high density lipoproteins (HDL) in the blood. While lifestyle choices influence the levels of cholesterol and triglycerides, familial hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia can be passed down generations.

Sudden Cardiac Death

  • Sudden cardiac death (SCD) commonly occurs due to irregular electrical activity in the heart (e.g. ventricular fibrillation).
  • It can affect older and younger adults, especially young athletes, who may be clinically stable otherwise.
  • This panel includes 10 genes for genetic testing and risk stratification of individuals with or without any symptoms or family history of heart disease.

Amyloidosis

Amyloidosis is caused by a build-up of an abnormal protein called amyloid in organs and tissues which may leads to damage of organ function. The symptoms of amyloidosis depend on which tissues and organs are affected. An increase in deposit of amyloid proteins in their kidneys leads to kidney failure and symptoms could be swelling, often in the legs, caused by fluid retention (oedema), tiredness, weakness, loss of appetite. Deposits of amyloid in the heart may result in heart failure, which can cause: an abnormal heartbeat (arrhythmia), oedema and shortness of breath

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is typically defined by thickened (hypertrophied) heart muscle. People suffering from undiagnosed HCM may have symptoms i.e. shortness of breath, chest pain and may leads to life-threatening irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmias) or sudden death.
