Kidney Dysfunction Biochip

During the early stages of kidney dysfunction there are typically no symptoms of kidney disease, and it may only be detected through a blood or urine test done for another reason. Early detection and treatment can help prevent chronic kidney disease from progressing. If left untreated, it can progress to kidney failure, where dialysis or a kidney transplant may be necessary to maintain life.

Application
To facilitate the early diagnosis of kidney dysfunction.

EARLY DIAGNOSIS CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE
Acute Kidney Injury Test
Biochip Array provides preoperative risk assessment and postoperative risk monitoring to triage
patients undergoing cardiac or orthopaedic surgery to mitigate the possibility of acute kidney injury (AKI). Current triaging is inadequate, as in most cases where creatinine is elevated and eGFR is decreased kidney damage has already started. With 615,000 cases per year in the UK, Biochip can reduce costs and could save £600 million.
Diabetic Kidney Disease Test
Biochip Array provides risk assessment and monitoring of diabetic patients in clinic to triage patients and identify progression of Diabetic Kidney Disease (DKD). A recent study demonstrated four biomarkers which could be used to clinically predict the progression of type 2 diabetes to DKD. Biochip is the only product on the market which allows for simultaneous measurement of the four markers within 60 minutes.
