Stockport NHS Foundation Trust among first to achieve CPA accreditation for point of care testing (POCT)

Roche cobas® IT1000 POCT Data Manager helps Stepping Hill Hospital to meet vital data management and audit requirements

The liquid ready to use Cystatin C assay from Randox provides a good indicator of Glomerular Filtration Rate (GRF). As a more sensitive maker of renal dysfunction, Cystatin C offers several advantages over traditional creatinine assays.

Colorectal Cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer worldwide¹. Metastatic disease accounts for 40-50% of newly diagnosed patients and is associated with high morbidity ^1,2. Despite recent therapeutic advances, the prognosis for metastatic CRC (mCRC) remains poor. Early diagnosis and assignment of the most appropriate therapy pathway is therefore crucial. The KRAS/BRAF/PIK3CA Array from Randox allows the clinician to select appropriate patients for anti-EGFR therapy, maximising drug efficacy and minimising adverse side effects to the patient.
