Early detection of severe hypertriglyceridemia using teleconsultation in a clinical laboratory setting.
Clínica e Investigación en Arteriosclerosis 2024 May 3
BACKGROUND: Teleconsultation in the context of clinical laboratories is a valuable tool for the early detection of dyslipidemia and prevention of cardiovascular risk. Here, we describe a patient who was referred to the Lipid Unit of the Virgen Macarena Hospital due to an alert for severe hypertriglyceridemia through its teleconsultation program.
CASE PRESENTATION: A comprehensive clinical and biochemical study of the patient was carried out, and genetic testing was performed on the patient and his family. The proband and his family showed mild to severe hypertriglyceridemia and various secondary factors, together with a genetic background associated with a triglyceride-raising effect.
CONCLUSION: This extensive study has identified a family at high risk of cardiovascular disease and acute pancreatitis. These findings can help maximize lifestyle changes and improve the clinical management of their dyslipidemia.
