Do
you know what your cardiovascular risk REALLY
is?
The Heart
Attack Prevention Institute (HAPI) of Naples, FL provides advanced diagnostic
and therapeutic options for patients with any degree of
increased future cardiovascular risk. Our state-of-the-art
approach allows preventative and long-term management care for
patients with known cardiovascular disease, diabetes, abnormal
blood cholesterol levels, hypertension and others at risk for
developing cardiovascular disease.
You
need better information...
There is much more
to diagnosing and managing cardiovascular disease than
measuring blood pressure, blood sugar and blood cholesterol
levels. The
Heart Attack Prevention Institute of Naples, FL is
the only "lipid clinic" in SW Florida
that delivers state-of-the-art diagnosis
and treatment of increased future cardiovascular
risk using: 1) NMR LipoProfile blood testing; 2) hs-CRP,
Lp-PLA2 and myeloperoxidase blood testing; 3) impedance cardiography
(ICG) office-based testing; 4) carotid intima-medial thickness
(CIMT) office-based testing; and 5) coronary calcium score (CCS)
testing. Such
detailed information allows the development of an
individualized diet, exercise and medication plan for each
patient to fend off cardiovascular
disease.
