Screening for cardiovascular risk factors
The Acutrend Plus system is a flexible, hand-held point-of-care device for the key parameters used to detect cardiovascular disease: Total cholesterol, Triglycerides, Glucose, and lactate. The meter is suitable for professional use as well as for self-testing (except for glucose). Roche Acutrend® Plus Meter Cholesterol Reagent Test Strips 25/BX are professional-grade strips that provide accurate and reliable results for healthcare providers when used with the corresponding meter. Roche Acutrend Plus Meter Cholesterol Reagent Test Strips provide healthcare professionals with reliable quantitative results for cholesterol management.
Screening for cardiovascular risk factors
- A significant number of patients in primary care are dyslipidemic and therefore at higher risk of cardiovascular disease1-3
- In addition, many patients with lipid disorders are either treated insufficiently or not treated at all1
- Point-of-care lipid testing can substantially improve recognition as well as management of dyslipidemic patients in primary care1
Safety and reassurance
- Built-in automatic performance testing and meter self-testing for reliable results
Ease of use
- Simplicity makes the device ideal for testing in the physician's office or in hospital settings
Product characteristics
- Convenient determination of cholesterol, triglycerides, glucose, and lactate using capillary blood
- Positive control strip and parameter recognition are used for calibration
- Test strips can be stored at room temperature
- Can store up to 100 different measurements with date, time, and flags
- Great precision and accuracy across the measuring range
