Cardiometabolic Diseases
Helping patients at risk and living with comorbid chronic conditions
Learn how our comprehensive diagnostic portfolio—coupled with complementary analytical tools—can help you follow guideline-driven testing to identify patients at risk for several cardiometabolic diseases, prevent adverse health outcomes and increase efficiency in your practice.
Address the complexity of identifying and monitoring interrelated conditions
60% of adults in the U.S. are living with a chronic disease—and 4 in 10 U.S. adults are living with two or more chronic diseases—such as diabetes, chronic kidney disease, and cardiovascular disease. These diseases tend to cluster and play a pivotal role in the interaction, development and progression of associated diseases.
- 37% of diabetic patients have NASH
- Diabetic patients are 2x more likely to have CVD
- Nearly 40% of persons who have diabetes and more than 30% of those who have hypertension also have CKD.3
- T2DM patients have a 2 to 3 times higher risk of fatal coronary heart disease.2
- More than 75% of those who have T2DM have NAFLD.4
- Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death for individuals who have T2DM6, stage 4-5 CKD2, and NAFLD.1
Many at-risk patients are not being screened for comorbidities, which are associated with a reduced health-related quality of life, more frequent hospitalization, higher health care costs and increased risk of death.
Manage patients at risk for cardiometabolic diseases and overlapping conditions with our comprehensive testing menu
We understand that managing comorbidities requires complex care. We’re here to help providers identify patients earlier in disease progression, prioritize interventions, weigh risks and benefits in patient treatment plans and better assess quality of care.
