EKF Diagnostics’ Stat-Site M β-HB is a strip-based test for β-hydroxybutyrate that provides a quick and easy assessment of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), delivering results in less than 80 seconds.
The presence and degree of ketosis can be assessed rapidly at the point of care by accurately measuring blood levels of β-HB, which accounts for 78 percent of the three ketone bodies, from 10 µL of serum or plasma. This results in useful information to provide quality care when monitoring DKA in newly diagnosed patients, while also reducing time and costs in an intensive care unit setting.
