At Thomasville Medical Center Women's Heart Center, we understand that no two women are exactly alike. That's why the care you receive at the Women's Heart Center is designed specifically around you and your personal needs.

After the assessment has been completed, we will work closely with you and your physician to develop an individualized wellness plan to address any risk factors that were identified.

Cholesterol Testing

Cholesterol screening is performed by a blood test. Persons with high cholesterol measurements from a blood sample tend to have a higher risk for coronary heart disease than those with cholesterol in the normal range. Studies have demonstrated that persons with high cholesterol can reduce their risk for heart disease by lowering their cholesterol. It is important to understand, however, that people can still have heart disease even with cholesterol levels in the normal range.

This test is done by measuring blood pressure at the ankle and in the arm while a person is at rest. Measurements are usually repeated at both sites after five minutes of walking on a treadmill. The ankle brachial index (ABI) result is used to predict the severity of peripheral arterial disease (PAD).
