How HeartLink SA works

Four steps from your first reading to sitting in front of the right practitioner. Here is exactly what you will see.

STEP 01

Add your readings weekly

Sign up free, then capture your blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol, weight and height, tick any chronic conditions and list your medication. It takes about a minute a week.

  • BMI is worked out for you from your weight and height
  • Every entry is kept, so you build a history over time

STEP 04

Let your doctor into the picture

A practitioner can accept your booking and then add you as one of their patients. Only then do they see your readings and risk history — and they can capture entries for you after a consult or refer you to a colleague.

  • Nothing is shared until you are linked to that practitioner
  • Doctors can also open a record for a patient they already treat

Understanding your risk rating

Your rating is worked out from your age, blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol, BMI, smoking and any chronic conditions you have told us about.

Low risk

Your readings are in a healthy range. Keep capturing entries weekly and stay on top of your usual check-ups.

Medium risk

One or more readings are drifting — often blood pressure, sugar or weight. A GP visit and small lifestyle changes make the biggest difference at this stage.

High risk

Several factors are pushing your heart risk up. Book with a GP or cardiologist soon, and share your HeartLink record with them so they can see your history.

HeartLink SA gives screening indicators only — always confirm with a qualified practitioner.
