The Aarogyam 1.7 with UTSH is a multidisciplinary full body health screening package from Thyrocare covering 109 diagnostic parameters across seventeen health profiles. It builds directly on the Aarogyam 1.6 package and introduces one clinically significant new marker: Lipoprotein-Associated Phospholipase A2, commonly known as Lp-PLA2.
While the addition of a single test may seem incremental, Lp-PLA2 is not a routine marker. It is a highly advanced, inflammation-sensitive enzyme found within arterial plaque, and its measurement is considered one of the most precise ways to assess the risk of a heart attack or stroke that originates from unstable vascular plaques rather than generalised cholesterol elevation.
Standard cardiac risk assessments, including lipid profiles and even Apolipoprotein markers, measure cholesterol-related risk. Lp-PLA2 works differently. It directly reflects inflammatory activity within the walls of arteries, which is the underlying mechanism behind most acute cardiovascular events.
Studies have shown that individuals with elevated Lp-PLA2 are at significantly higher risk of stroke and coronary artery disease even when their cholesterol levels appear normal. This makes it particularly valuable for individuals who have borderline or normal lipid results but carry other cardiovascular risk factors such as hypertension, smoking history, obesity, or a family history of early heart disease.
Together with all the profiles inherited from Aarogyam 1.6, including the Arthritis Panel, Urinary Microalbumin, 22-element Toxic Elements screening, full Vitamins panel, Testosterone, Insulin Fasting, and Pancreas Profile, the Aarogyam 1.7 package with UTSH offers one of the most complete and clinically detailed annual health assessments available in the Aarogyam 1.x series.
Thyroid evaluation continues to use Ultrasensitive TSH technology for precision detection of subclinical thyroid dysfunction.
The Aarogyam 1.7 with UTSH is best suited for:
It is advisable to share your results with a qualified physician, particularly if any values fall outside the reference range, so that appropriate follow-up can be recommended.
Fasting: A strict fast of 10 to 12 hours before sample collection is required. Plain water is permitted throughout the fasting window.
Avoid alcohol: Refrain from consuming alcohol for at least 48 hours before the test as it may elevate inflammatory markers and affect several parameters.
Medications: Inform your doctor or the phlebotomist about all medications currently being taken, particularly statins, anti-inflammatory drugs, diabetic medications, thyroid drugs, and immunosuppressants.
Supplements: Inform the technician if you are taking Vitamin D, Vitamin B12, Folate, iron, calcium, zinc, or omega-3 supplements.
Hydration: Drink adequate plain water before the test to ensure comfortable venipuncture.
Physical activity: Avoid strenuous exercise for at least 24 hours before sample collection.

Q1. How often should I take the Aarogyam 1.7 with UTSH package?
Once a year is the standard recommendation for most healthy adults. Those with elevated cardiovascular risk factors or metabolic concerns may benefit from more frequent testing as advised by their physician.
Q2. Is fasting necessary for the Aarogyam 1.7 package?
Yes, fasting for 10 to 12 hours before sample collection is required as the package includes Lp-PLA2, Insulin Fasting, Blood Ketone, and Fructosamine.
Q3. What type of sample is required for the Aarogyam 1.7 package?
A blood sample is required and collected via venipuncture by a trained phlebotomist. The Urinary Microalbumin test additionally requires a urine sample.
Q4. How is Aarogyam 1.7 different from Aarogyam 1.6?
Aarogyam 1.7 includes everything in Aarogyam 1.6 and adds the Lp-PLA2 test, a highly sensitive vascular inflammation marker used to predict stroke and heart attack risk.
Q5. Is home sample collection available for the Aarogyam 1.7 with UTSH package?
Yes, free home sample collection is available across many cities in India when booked through SecondMedic.
Q6. How soon will I receive my Aarogyam 1.7 test results?
