Key Features Of Accutrend Plus
Accutrend Plus is a flexible,
hand-held point of care device for the main risk factors of cardiovascular diseases
(CVD) and lactate. The device is tailored to be used outside the lab in the physician's
office and in the hospital as well as for self-measurement at home or during sports.
Results are provided directly from capillary blood.
Easy to use
: Convenient measurement of cholesterol, triglycerides, blood glucose, and lactate
from capillary blood using Roche's well-proven test strip technology. Test strips
can be stored at room temperature. Rapid results : Cholesterol in
180 seconds, triglycerides in 174 seconds, glucose in 12 seconds, and lactate
in 60 seconds. Built-in safety features : Automatic performance
and meter self-testing. Code-strips with positive lot identification and parameter
recognition. User-friendly data storage for reliable data handling
and monitoring: up to 100 results can be stored with date, time, and additional
information for each parameter. Precise results : High precision
and accuracy across the whole measuring range for all parameters Accutrend
Plus at the point of care
Detection of risk A significant number of primary
care patients have dyslipidemia and hyperglycemia, representing key symptoms of
metabolic syndrome associated with increased cardiovascular risk (1, 8). Accutrend
Plus supports you in the early recognition of CVD risks as well as in monitoring
therapeutic measures - in your office or at your patient's home.
Performance
diagnostics in sport and rehabilitation Accutrend Plus allows for rapid determination
of blood lactate levels. It enables you to determine individual training intensity
on the spot, to harmonize phases of strain and rest, and to minimize the danger
of overload and injury (9).
Hospital and critical care The concentration
of lactate reflects the degree of tissue hypoxia. There is a correlation between
severity and prognosis of disease and lactate concentrations. Determination of
lactate therefore is essential in many situations in critical care (10).
