The solution for NHS Health CHecks
The LDX system delivers the ability to measure a complete lipid profile and glucose, ALT, AST, and hs-CRP and it does it all in 5 minutes per test cassette (6 minutes for hs-CRP).
Why use the LDX instrument from Alere?
- Four of the six case studies listed on the DH Vascular Checks website have used the LDX.
- The LDX is the instrument of choice for DH Familial Hyperlipidaemia pilot study at Wolfson Institute, Flora Test the Nations Hearts, and Have a Heart Paisley, BHF Screening programmes – a total of over 120,000 vascular risk assessments performed.
The LDX is certified for Total Cholesterol and HDL-Cholesterol by the CDC’s Cholesterol Reference Method Laboratory Network – “These results confirm that accuracy and reproducibility of a point-of-care lipid profile method is comparable to centralized laboratory testing.”
- Positive evaluations from the UK MHRA (report MHRA/95/23) and many UK labs such as Glasgow Royal, St Georges, Guys, Cardiff etc.
- Wolfson EQA extra-laboratory cholesterol assays: 237 LDX instruments are currently registered and show consistently good results
The option for full IT connectivity with data transfer to the patient record is available
Testimonials
“"The LDX has been really easy to use during the program and patients have been really pleased that they can have all their results within one consultation."”
