These are consumable items designed for use with specific point-of-care testing devices. They facilitate the quantitative measurement of a particular biological analyte in a small sample, typically blood. The intended use is to provide individuals or healthcare professionals with a rapid and convenient method for monitoring relevant physiological parameters.
The availability of such testing tools allows for proactive health management and informed decision-making. Regular monitoring of key biomarkers can provide early indications of potential health concerns, enabling timely intervention and personalized treatment strategies. Historically, such measurements required laboratory analysis, resulting in delayed results and potentially hindering prompt clinical action. These tools offer a more immediate and accessible alternative.
