Model RAMP NT-proBNP -Accurate, Quantitative and Rapid Diagnostic Test Kit
The RAMP® NT-proBNP test is an accurate, quantitative and rapid diagnostic test that aids in the diagnosis and assessment of severity in individuals suspected of having congestive heart failure (CHF) and can aid in the risk stratification of patients with heart failure. The RAMP® NT-proBNP test is ideally suited for point of care testing and laboratory use by healthcare professionals.
The RAMP® NT-proBNP test is an FDA cleared whole blood immunoassay BNP test, with proprietary RAMP technology, which detects the levels of N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide in patients with congestive heart failure. This product will help physicians and patients where a traditional BNP test cannot.
MANAGING PATIENTS WITH HEART FAILURE
- 1 out of 4 patients will be readmitted within 30 days of discharge, the highest rate of readmission of any discharge diagnosis
- 1 in 5 patients diagnosed with heart failure die within the first year and about half of people who develop heart failure die within 5 years of diagnosis
- Heart failure often presents with non-specific symptoms and is frequently confused with pneumonia or COPD
- Heart attacks and Coronary Heart Disease are two of the most expensive conditions to treat.
RAMP NT-proBNP TEST
- Provides rapid, accurate diagnoses and assessment of congestive heart failure.
- NT-proBNP is roughly 5 times more stable of a biomarker then BNP
- Better accuracy in mild heart failure patients because the levels of NT-proBNP are 2-10x higher
- Standardized to Roche Elecsys Lab Analyzer
