Looking to see if anyone can share any knowledge of the following tests
-Visby Respiratory panel by Visby Medical, CLIA waived PCR all in one device (whole thing goes in garbage). They also make a STI test panel.
-CardioChek PA--lipid test strip CLIA waived
-A1CNOW+
Looking for CLIA waived, easy to transport tests for a mobile clinic and school clinic. Anyone use any of these products?
Thanks
Kim

Our Primary Care practices used this kit for quite a few years. Pulled them out of the practices during this time frame 2017-2019. Our providers didn't like the differences in values when compared to main lab analyzer (TOSHO). I believe CAP removed them from their testing menu about the same time due to sensitivity issues. Replaced the kit with the DCA Vantage which is a small analyzer that is working wonderfully. One big DCA drawback, the reagent cartridges should be refrigerated but have a four-month stability at room temp. NOVA-ONE Diagnostics QC on both the kit and analyzer....good open for 6 months refrigerated. Quantimetrix has a room temp stable QC...21 days.
Good Luck
The DCA is not portable, thinking more like a home health scenario as well. Something that can be carried into a home, small and can be moved. This is the reason Cepheid is not an option for the respiratory panel, small and waived, but does not want to travel :)
