Cost Benefit Analysis

We understand that at most hospitals in India, elaborate Laboratory tests are being conducted along with Troponin-T & Troponin I tests. However, these tests are mostly time consuming and can in no way be compared at any level with the test possible with the Life Sign MI Cardiac Marker Test Kit offered by us, which has tremendous over-riding advantages in many respects, as elaborated below:

1. Whereas the existing tests being conducted at various hospitals entail considerable delays (which could even run up to 2 hours) in getting feedback from the Laboratory, the Life Sign MI Cardiac Marker Test Kit is a Point of Care Test Kit and gives positive results in 5 minutes, while for negative results to be confirmed, one may have to wait up to 15 minutes. Thus the Life Sign MI Cardiac Marker Test Kit provides an almost instant diagnosis of Myocardial Infarction (MI), which is unmatched by any other Cardiac Marker available till now in India.
2. The Life Sign MI Cardiac Marker Test Kit has the specific approval of Food & Drug Administration (FDA), USA, which itself is a guarantee of its high and consistent quality as well as performance, thereby ensuring its reliability and eliminating false reporting. On the other hand, the test devices being currently used at various hospitals are not approved from any recognised international agency to confirm their reliability, thus making it possible to give false results.
3. The tests being conducted at various hospitals are not free from High Hook Dose or the Prozone effect and on higher concentration, are prone to provide false negatives. However, the Life Sign MI Cardiac Marker test kit offered by us is optimised to ensure that even high concentrations of Myoglobin, CKMB & Troponin - I do not result in false negatives.
4. While our Life Sign MI Cardiac Marker test kit has built in quality control by virtue of its manufacture under ISO - 9001 certification by the original makers of cardiac test kits and being subjected to elaborate checks for retaining the valued approval of FDA, USA, it is practically not possible to have such quality control for the tests currently available at various hospitals.
5. The Life Sign MI Cardiac Marker Test Kit can be stored at room temperature until expiry due to the high stability of its reagents, whereas test devices presently used at various hospital requires special storage < 8°C.
6. The special packing of the Life Sign MI Cardiac Marker Test Kit makes it easy to handle and carry even in an Ambulance while shifting the patient from his house to the Hospital and to know whether patient has suffered MI even before reaching to the hospital.
7. It should be noted that above everything else, where the question of saving precious human lives is concerned, there should not be any compromise and when an exceptionally Unique product like the Life Sign MI Cardiac Marker Test Kit is now available in India, which provides an almost instant diagnosis of MI, thereby enabling the patient to be administered proper and timely therapy at an early stage, the cost factor does not have over riding importance, although the Life Sign MI Cardiac Marker Test Kit is reasonably priced. Every single human life saved by using a better and more sophisticated product will far outweigh the little extra cost entailed in procurement of the Life Sign MI Cardiac Marker Test Kit.
8. Finally, the availability of the Life Sign DxPress Reader along with the Cardiac Marker test kits provides the unique facility of obtaining quantitative results, which are not possible with other similar products being used in various hospitals in India at preset.

We have no doubt that a perusal of the above cost benefit analysis of the Life Sign MI Cardiac Marker Test Kit, which is a revolutionary product, incomparable to any other similar product available till now in India, will be convincing enough for any Hospital/Heart Care Centre, to switch over immediately to this special new product.
