Whole blood analysis for Hemoglobin A1C
The DCA Advantage is an easy to use analyzer. We run our A1C's and Microalbumin's with our DCA's. Results are accurate and precise (very reproducible, comparisons with a moderately complex instrument are always very good). Very user friendly to run tests and to calibrate. If the DCA breaks down they send a replacement ASAP. The only negative on the replacements is that they are refurbished not new.

Hemoglobin A1C's and Microalbumins
The DCA Advantages are great little table top analyzers for A1C's and Microablbumins. They are easy to use and provide accurate results. The only negative is when they break down which they will they send you a refurbished DCA which is sometimes well used. They can last over a year or a few weeks you just never know. TAT is great.

Chemistry
The DCA Vantage is a very dependable and reliable instrument for performing HgbA1c and Microalbumin/Creatinine, urine testing. QC is very rarely out of range. HgbA1c QC is done for each lot number or shipment. Microalbumin QC is done each day of testing. I would highly recommend this instrument for ease of use.

This machine is a good machine for a doctor’s office. For a waived result machine its results compare within a 0.5 variable with other types of machines that report out hemoglobin A1c.

ENDOCRINE/PEDIATRIC
Easy to use, accurate measurements. True POCT test that offers fast, reliable results. Highly recommend to other hospitals. Cost per test is more expensive than traditional lab methods. Easy to use by non-lab personnel including medical assistants. However, no on-site support from manufacturer.
