The Lipoprotein-associated Phospholipase A2, Immunoassay, System, Test, is intended to measure lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 in human plasma in conjunction with clinical evaluation and other patient risk factors including biochemical analyses as an aid in predicting risk for coronary heat disease.
