Product Review – Point-of-care testing for chronic kidney disease

As part of our series focussing on available products in Australia, we have added a product review of the Abbott i-STAT creatinine test with eGFR calculation and Afinion ACR tests: point-of-care testing for chronic kidney disease.

This review discusses burden of disease, early diagnosis, the Abbott i-STAT creatinine test, ACR testing, and the National strategic action plan for kidney disease. It also provides commentary from Dr Tim Senior, a GP at Tharawal Aboriginal Corporation, the Aboriginal Community Controlled Health Service in South West Sydney.
