Meritas® cTnI Test

Trinity Biotech Plc

The Meritas® cTnI test is a single use, rapid one-step fluorescence immunoassay for in vitro quantitative determination of cTnI in EDTA anticoagulated human whole blood and plasma specimens. Meritas® cTnI test can both be used as an aid in the diagnosis of MI but also for risk stratification of patients with MI in respect to their relative risk of mortality. The test is to be used with the Trinity Biotech Meritas® POC Analyzer. GUIDELINE COMPLIANT PERFORMANCE First and only true POC test able to provide results consistent with the Third Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction < 10% CV at the 99th percentile Upper Reference Limit (URL) Enables compliance to the NACB Troponin recommended turnaround time of 30 minutes Top laboratory quality at the POC CONFIDENCE, SPEED AND EFFICIENCY: No lengthy wait for lab results Triage patients quicker than before Send healthy patients home without needless delay Admit patients to get proper treatment earlier Maximize the use of resources and hospital beds on only those in need of care Reduce ED overcrowding
