Take Control of Your Heart Health with Advanced Genetic Testing
If you’re worried about inherited heart conditions running in your family, you’re not alone. Many South Africans live with the uncertainty of genetic heart risks, wondering if they’ll develop the same conditions that affected their loved ones. Our TMEM43 Gene Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy Type 5 test provides the answers you need to make informed decisions about your health and future.
Understanding Your TMEM43 Genetic Test
This specialised test examines the TMEM43 gene, which plays a crucial role in maintaining your heart’s electrical system. When this gene has specific mutations, it can lead to Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy Type 5 (ARVC5) – a condition where heart muscle tissue is gradually replaced by fat and scar tissue, potentially causing dangerous heart rhythms.
Using cutting-edge Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology, we analyse your DNA with exceptional accuracy to identify any TMEM43 gene mutations. This isn’t just another test – it’s a comprehensive assessment of your genetic heart health profile.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Heart Test?
This test is particularly important if you experience:
- Unexplained fainting or dizziness, especially during exercise
- Palpitations or irregular heartbeats that concern you
- Family members diagnosed with ARVC or sudden cardiac death
- Abnormal ECG results that suggest potential heart rhythm issues
- Young family members who experienced unexplained cardiac events
If you’re from families with a history of heart conditions in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, or Pretoria, this test could provide life-saving insights.
Why This Test Matters for Your Heart Health
Early detection of TMEM43 gene mutations can be life-changing. By identifying your genetic risk early, you can:
- Receive appropriate medical monitoring and preventive treatments
- Make informed lifestyle choices to protect your heart health
- Provide crucial information for family members who may also be at risk
- Avoid unnecessary anxiety through clear, definitive answers
- Access specialised cardiac care tailored to your genetic profile
Knowledge is power when it comes to inherited heart conditions, and this test gives you that power.
