Corilab > Hypertension Check-up

What is hypertension?

The Corilab Hypertension Check-up combines a selection of laboratory tests in a single package to assess parameters related to kidney function, electrolyte balance and the lipid profile.

Hypertension affects approximately one in three adults aged 30–79 worldwide and is an important risk factor for stroke and cardiovascular disease.

The results should be interpreted in the context of the individual’s circumstances and, where necessary, reviewed with their doctor.

Hypertension is a condition characterised by persistently elevated blood pressure. It is identified and monitored through repeated blood pressure measurements; laboratory tests do not directly measure or diagnose it.

Hypertension can develop through a complex interaction between genetic, health, lifestyle and environmental factors.

The tests included in this check-up can provide information about renal, electrolyte and lipid parameters that may contribute to an overall cardiovascular risk assessment. They do not replace blood pressure measurement or a medical evaluation.

This check-up includes

  • Urea (Blood Urea Nitrogen, BUN)

  • Creatinine

  • Sodium

  • Potassium

  • Total Cholesterol

  • Triglycerides

  • HDL Cholesterol

  • LDL Cholesterol

€ 18,50*

*Packages are not eligible for discounts and cannot be split into individual tests.

How to prepare for your check-up

Before having your blood sample taken, you should fast for 8–12 hours. Alcohol, sugar and coffee may affect the reliability of the results. As smoking may also influence the results, patients are advised not to smoke between waking up and having their blood taken.

Only plain water is permitted during the fasting period. Maintain your usual hydration unless Corilab or your doctor has provided different instructions.

Diet

In the days leading up to the blood test, continue to follow your usual diet. Excessive food intake, a restrictive diet or sudden changes in your consumption of fat, protein or salt may affect some of the results and their clinical interpretation.

Medication

Tell your doctor or the laboratory about any medication, vitamin or supplement you are taking, particularly blood pressure medication, diuretics, lipid-lowering medication and potassium or sodium supplements. Do not stop, delay or change any prescribed treatment unless specifically instructed by your doctor.
