Hematocrit self-monitoring device

brianlaughlin · #1 (**permalink**) 11-08-2008, 11:31 AM

I'm wondering if there are home monitoring devices for testing hematocrit levels. I would like to avoid having to go to the clinic as often to have it checked. Can anybody tell me if such a product exists and perhaps even suggest a brand line?

Thanks,

Brian

Hemocue may be worth a look:
HemoCue USA - Products - Hemoglobin - General

Thanks jmalak.

Would love to know if anybody is aware of any less expensive alternatives as well.

best,

Brian
