Performance of the Reflotron in Massachusetts' Model System for Blood Cholesterol Screening Program
The precision, accuracy, and durability of the Reflotron were evaluated by the Massachusetts Model Systems for Blood Cholesterol Screening Program. Screenings were conducted in diverse community settings over 16 months. Fingerstick samples from 10,428 individuals were tested. None of the four analyzers met the 1992 standards for precision, although two met the 1992 standards for accuracy. More than 40% of Reflotron values differed from the refere…
