The Alere Cholestech LDX Starter Kit (14-204) The LDX only requires 40uL of blood and takes just 5 minutes to generate a lab-accurate, comprehensive measurement of a patient’s cholesterol levels. The speed and ease of use of the LDX System enables doctors to counsel patients at the time of the testing – a tremendous therapeutic advantage over traditional lab testing and a more convenient option for patients. The LDX is “CLIA waived” under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 and CRMLN Certified. The system is simple to use, requires minimal training and is as reliably accurate as tests offered in a laboratory. In most cases, Medicare and third-party health insurance reimburse the costs of the LDX System tests.
The Alere Cholestech Lipid Profile+Glucose Cassette measures total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), triglycerides, and glucose (GLU). It also uses these values to calculate low-density lipoprotein levels (LDL). This simple test can be used to determine a patient’s risk for heart disease or to regularly monitor patients already undergoing treatment.
The Alere Cholestech LDX Multi-Analyte Controls are the preferred sample for quality control on the Alere Cholestech LDX System. Quality control procedures include testing specimens of known concentrations (called “controls”), recording, and interpreting the values to verify system performance. Other controls may be used, but their performance must first be assessed on the Alere Cholestech LDX System, and acceptable ranges determined. Each vial contains 2 mL of sample material.
