Creatinine Monitoring System Enables Rapid Assessment of Renal Function
An advanced, handheld creatinine monitoring system from Nova Biomedical, Waltham, Mass, enables rapid assessment of renal function by finger prick capillary blood sampling at the point of care. Incorporating new patented, Multi-Well test strip technology adapted from Nova’s hospital glucose monitoring system, Nova StatSensor Creatinine allows creatinine to be measured with a simple 30-second test in the emergency department, radiology, oncology, or other point-of-care areas where renal function must be assessed.
The product measures creatinine and calculates estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) by MDRD or Cockroft-Gault equations. It offers capillary blood sampling on small, 1.2 microliter blood samples with 30-second test results. It also provides correlation to central laboratory reference methods over a measurement range from 0.03-12 mg/dL.
