Generally

Versatile point of care CRP testing with QuikRead go CRP+Hb

Accurate C-reactive protein (CRP) measurement is essential in managing patients with symptoms of infection and inflammation. A fast CRP test helps to identify patients who benefit from antibiotic treatment, and it is valuable in monitoring treatment responses1. The test can also be used for the evaluation and monitoring of inflammatory conditions2. The easy-to-use QuikRead go CRP test can be used near the patient providing immediate CRP result.

QuikRead go CRP+Hb

Haemoglobin measurement gives important information about the patient’s condition in both acute and basic healthcare settings. Changes in haemoglobin concentrations can be seen in several medical conditions which makes haemoglobin measurement one of the most commonly used diagnostic test.

Simple sampling

  • No manual steps
  • Wide automatic haematocrit correction for CRP results
  • Finger prick or venous whole blood sample. Plasma or serum can also be used

One fast analysis – two results

  • A single analysis provides both CRP and haemoglobin results
  • Combined analysis time 2 minutes
  • CRP measuring range 5 - 200 mg/l* and haemoglobin 50 - 245 g/l
  • Results are comparable to laboratory tests

Effortless testing with the QuikRead go multianalyte instrument

  • Ready-to-use reagents
  • Fully automated measurement
  • Maintenance free
  • Battery use ensures full portability
  • Bi-directional connectivity to most HIS and LIS systems

*with whole blood and haematocrit of 40%, with plasma and serum 5 – 120 mg/l

Test results should never be used alone, without a complete clinical evaluation.

About C-reactive protein (CRP)

CRP aids clinical management of patients with infections or inflammatory conditions.

About hemoglobin

Hemoglobin is the molecule which contains iron and transports oxygen in the blood. It binds oxygen in the lungs, transports it to tissues and returns carbon dioxide from tissues to the lungs. Hemoglobin has an important role in the body’s iron cycle and it contains most of the functional iron in the body.

If a patient has anemia the blood hemoglobin or red blood cell concentration is below recommended levels. Anemia has many different causes but iron deficiency, which causes iron deficiency anemia, is the most common cause in the Western world. It should be remembered that anemia is more of a symptom than a disease. Hemoglobin tests may help diagnose anemia but the cause of anemia has to be investigated.

Frequently asked questions

I opened the lid of a cuvette but I did not use the cuvette immediately. How long is the cuvette usable?

You should use the cuvette within 2 hours of opening it.

Can I use CRP controls with the QuikRead go CRP+Hb test kit?

Yes, you can use the same CRP controls with the QuikRead go CRP and QuikRead go CRP+Hb tests. The target values are valid for both tests.

Do I get a hemoglobin result automatically from every measurement if I use QuikRead go CRP+Hb test?

Yes, you automatically get both CRP and hemoglobin results each time from whole blood samples. If plasma or serum samples are used, you only receive a CRP result. This is because plasma and serum samples do not contain red blood cells and, therefore, do not contain hemoglobin.

Is it enough to take only one capillary sample (not two replicates) to get a reliable hemoglobin result?

We have evaluated the difference between parallel samples with the QuikRead go CRP+Hb test and we do not see any need for two or more parallel samples. The Hb results received with the QuikRead go CRP+Hb test are comparable to laboratory results and to the gold standard methods, and they require a single sample only. It is always important to pay attention to proper sampling technique.
