LFD-SAA-SERUM SAA Serum/Plasma Measurement Pack

Equine - Lateral Flow

Equine Serum Amyloid A (SAA) Serum/Plasma Measurement Pack

LFD-SAA-SERUM

DESCRIPTION

Lateral Flow tests that provide quantitative results of Serum Amyloid A (SAA) in whole blood, serum, and plasma samples.

Use these capillary sampling devices in place of those provided with the Serum Amyloid A (SAA) Test (LFD-SAA).

Early identification of systemic inflammation and infection is challenging, as the clinical signs can be subtle. SAA is an indispensable tool to aid equine veterinarians in this challenge since levels increase with acute inflammation even more rapidly and dramatically than elevations in fibrinogen or WBC count. SAA starts dropping as soon as the disease begins to resolve, allowing objective monitoring of clinical condition and treatment efficacy.

“Angilene Gonzales, LVT and I, Shauna Knapp-Boutros, LVT have been with Waller Equine Hospital for 20 years. With a support staff of over 25, when adding a new diagnostic test or equipment we worry about ease of use, potential for user error, and durability. We have been very happy with VMRD's SAA lateral flow reader and test kit. It is easy to use, durable and reliable. Not to mention, a great diagnostic tool and something we are so happy we have incorporated into our workups. We highly recommend the product!”

“I recently had a transfer from a large referral center to my rural clinic for a two-year-old FS DSH with a 9 day history of lethargy, inappetence, and pyrexia. The owner spent $2000+ on diagnostics, but no cause of illness could be identified. I ran a SAA upon arrival, and it was elevated. I discontinued the patients steroids and started IV antibiotics and within 24 hours, the patient was eating. Within three days, her symptoms had resolved. Although I would have loved to know why the cat was sick, we don’t always have that luxury in veterinary medicine. Ultimately, having SAA got this pet to recovery faster and could have even saved her life. ”
