Collection/Processing Instructions

Samples collected in gel tubes should be centrifuged within 2 hours of collection.

 

Samples collected in non-gel tubes must be centrifuged and aliquoted from cells within 2 hours of collection.

Specimen Stability Information

Specimen Type Temperature Time
Plasma/Serum Ambient 5 days
Refrigerate 7 days
Frozen 30 days

Test Components

Includes Total Cholesterol, HDL Cholesterol, and Triglyceride.

Interferences

For Regional Centers performing Triglyceride: N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) may interfere with the Siemens Dimension triglyceride assay and cause falsely depressed results.

 

For patients receiving NAC treatment, venipuncture should occur prior to NAC administration to prevent this interference.

Panel includes the following tests:
Cholesterol:
            0-20 yrs: 100-170 mg/dL  (Marked increase: >200mg/dL)
            >20 yrs: 100-200 mg/dL   (Marked increase: >240 mg/dL) HDL Cholesterol:
            40-59 mg/dL (HDL ≥ 60 is considered cardio-protective) Triglycerides:
            20-149 mg/dL non-HDL Cholesterol (mg/dL):
            <130 if CHD, peripheral vascular disease, or diabetes is present
            <160 when no CHD is present, but there are 2 or more risk factors
            <190 when there is no CHD, but there is 0 or 1 risk factor present CHD Risk Factors:
            Cigarette smoking
            Hypertension
                    BP > 140/90 mm Hg or on antihypertensive medication
            Low HDL-C (<40 mg/dL)
                    HDL-C > 60 mg/dL counts as a negative risk factor; if present,                        remove one risk factor from the total count
            Family history of premature CHD
                    CHD in male first degree relative <55 years
                    CHD in female first degree relative <65 years
            Age
