Now you can determine LDL Cholesterol results on site in less than 2 minutes with no fasting required. The new tests are the world’s first Point-of-Care test strip that directly measures LDL-Cholesterol.

Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL), the so-called “bad”-cholesterol, is considered a primary risk factor for cardiovascular disease, heart attack and stroke.

Until now there has never been a direct measurement for this critical factor at Point-of-care.

LDL Cholesterol test strips let you test direct LDL at Point-of-Care so you can immediately provide counselling, education or recommend drug therapies that individuals may need.

Because direct LDL results are not affected by triglycerides, no fasting is required.
You have the freedom to test anytime, all day long.

Direct™ LDL testing with the handheld CardioChek PA analyzer, lets you:

* Provide a direct, not calculated or estimated LDL value
* Get the results in less than 2 minutes
* Save time and effort – a quick finger stick sample is all that’s necessary
* Asses results right at point-of-care with a portable, battery-powered system
* Test anytime all day long
* No fasting required
* Minimize patients discomfort. One small drop of blood (about 15µL) is all that is required
* Keep test strips at point-of-use.
* No refrigeration required
