Alere Biosite TRIAGE BNP TEST 25/BX

The Triage BNP Test is intended for use with the Triage Meters for the rapid in vitro quantitative measurement of B-Type Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) in human whole-blood or plasma specimens using EDTA as the anticoagulant.

The Triage® BNP Test is the first objective measurement for heart failure.
  • The only CLIA waived blood test measuring B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP)
  • Cardiac hormone produced by the heart ventricles in response to ventricular volume expansion and pressure overload
  • Excellent hormonal marker of ventricular systolic and diastolic dysfunction
Features
  • 98 percent diagnostic accuracy in initial studies versus all other clinical findings in patients with or without disease history
  • Quantitative and accurate, rapid results help differentiate nonspecific signs and symptoms (dyspnea) with results in approximately 15 minutes
  • 98 percent specificity using a 100 pg/mL cutoff
  • >98 percent negative predictive value utilizing 100 pg/mL cutoff
  • Corrected 96 percent of misdiagnoses of patients with suspected heart failure in initial studies
  • Diagnostic accuracy confirmed for:
    • Early- and late-stage heart failure in point-of-care setting
    • Patients with normal and abnormal ejection fractions
  • Studies indicate that BNP is predictive of systolic and diastolic left ventricular dysfunction
  • BNP levels are not influenced by hypertension, diabetes, renal insufficiency, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
