Trinity Biotech Gains EU Approval for POC Test
Feb 28 2014
Trinity Biotech’s landmark, high sensitivity Meritas® Troponin I (TnI) point-of-care (POC) test has obtained CE marking and meets all guidelines stipulated by the world’s leading cardiac organisations for the detection of heart attacks. With CE marking achieved, the Company now intends to release the product for sale in Europe and other carefully selected markets through its specialist Cardiology Distributor network and direct selling teams.
Designed for use with the Meritas POC analyser Analyzer, the test enables fast, accurate triage and intervention for patients presenting at the emergency department with a possible myocardial infarctio. MI Results, which are traceable to NIST SRM 2921, are reported to be comparable to those obtained using traditional top performing laboratory analysers and are available in just 15 minutes. Turnaround times, patient care and outcomes are improved, helping to maximise the use of hospital resources and generate significant cost savings. Additional assays are currently being developed to extend the test menu further.
