Highlights
There are a number of hand-held cholesterol testing devices such as the CardioChek, Mission, 3in1 available
Smart phones have data transmission capabilities using Global Systems for Mobile Communication (GSM); Wireless Fidelity (WiFi); bluetooth and Universal Serial Bus (USB), making it easy to transfer the information from point of test to a centralized location where this information can be viewed by the specialist [1]
When the results of days 5 and 6 are excluded the coefficient of variation (CV)% estimate was calculated as 7.2% (Table 1)
Summary
There are a number of hand-held cholesterol testing devices such as the CardioChek, Mission, 3in available. The elemarkTM lipid check, a smart phone based point of care device for self-testing of a lipid profile with transmission capabilities was described This device can store and send the result of the measurements to a server where the patient’s clinician can gain access to the information. An application on the smart phone calibrates the image colour values on the test strip and the results appear on the phone This device was shown to measure total. The 1dropTM TC is a total cholesterol testing device smartphone (Galaxy J3) with a specially designed mobile application that measures total cholesterol In this pilot study, we evaluated the performance (intra-individual variation, intra-assay precision and comparative data) of the 1dropTM smart phone in measuring total cholesterol.
