Multicare In Triglyceride test strips allow for the rapid measurement of triglyceride levels in the blood. These lipids, derived from food and stored as an energy reserve, can represent a cardiovascular risk factor when present in excess. Regular monitoring is therefore essential to prevent complications related to high triglyceride levels.
This test is particularly recommended for people with risk factors such as a diet high in sugar and fat, excessive alcohol consumption, or low physical activity. It is also useful for people with diabetes, hypertension, or a family history of cardiovascular disease.
To ensure a reliable measurement , it is essential to perform the test after fasting for at least 12 hours . A single drop of capillary blood is sufficient to obtain an accurate result in 30 seconds , thus facilitating regular monitoring.
Main features
The test strips are designed for use with the Multicare In analyzer, ensuring a fast and accurate reading. They cover a measurement range of 50 to 500 mg/dl and must be stored between 5 and 30°C to guarantee their effectiveness.
Interpretation of the results
The results obtained allow us to assess the level of triglycerides in the blood:
- A level below 150 mg/dl is considered normal.
- Between 150 and 200 mg/dl , this is a moderately high threshold requiring increased monitoring.
- A value above 200 mg/dl indicates a high level and may be associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.
- If the level exceeds 500 mg/dl , it is recommended to consult a healthcare professional quickly, as this may indicate a significant risk of pancreatitis.
These strips offer a simple and quick solution for monitoring triglyceride levels and taking the necessary measures in case of abnormalities.
