The Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics DCA HbA1c test kit, already widely used to monitor diabetes patients? HbA1c levels, has achieved the CE mark as an aid to diagnose diabetes and identify patients at risk from developing the disease. Available for use on Siemens? DCA systems, including the DCA Vantage? Analyser, the test kit now provides clinicians with a streamlined solution that delivers fast, accurate results in a range of environments from doctor surgeries to hospitals and clinics.
With diabetes currently affecting more than 55 million people across Europe, the benefits of using haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) testing to measure average blood glucose levels in the management and treatment of patients with confirmed diabetes is well established. Recently, the medical community has recognised the clinical utility of HbA1c testing in the disease?s diagnosis.
