Cholesterol testing is fast gaining ground as the basic and most important marker for assessing the risk of heart disease, the number one killer. Various studies have proven the link between increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and abnormally high levels of cholesterol or lipid disorders. Rising levels of awareness and growing health consciousness among adults and at-risk patient population is contributing to increased frequency of cholesterol testing. A noticeable trend is the emergence of home cholesterol test kits, which are available as over the counter products.
Technological innovations are making these kits more reliable, fast, easy to use, and cost effective, compared to laboratory testing, thus explaining the significant growth for this category. On the other hand, several new variants of cardiovascular and other tests, such as homocysteine tests are seeing the light of the day, promising more clarity in CVD risk assessment. All this translates into burgeoning potential for makers of cholesterol testing devices, clinics offering testing services.
These and other market data and trends are presented in "Cholesterol & Other Cardiovascular Testing: Trends & Opportunities Worldwide" by BizAcumen, Inc. Our reports are designed to be most comprehensive in geographic coverage and vertical market analyses.
