The Mission® Cholesterol Monitoring System is intended for the quantitative determination of Total Cholesterol, High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol, and Triglycerides in human capillary whole blood from the fingertip. The Mission Cholesterol Monitoring System is a portable system consisting of the Mission Cholesterol Meter, Mission Cholesterol Test Cartridges, Mission Cholesterol Optical Verifier and Mission Cholesterol Control Solution, and is intended to be used by a single person and should not be shared. This system is for in vitro diagnostic use only.

Cholesterol measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders involving excess cholesterol in the blood and lipid and lipoprotein metabolism disorders.

HDL (High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol) measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of lipid disorders (such as diabetes mellitus), atherosclerosis, and various liver and renal diseases.

Triglycerides measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with diabetes mellitus, nephrosis, liver obstruction, and other diseases involving lipid metabolism or various endocrine disorders.

Use this product at the frequency your doctor recommends for testing Total Cholesterol, HDL Cholesterol, and Triglycerides.

An estimated value for Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol is calculated by the Mission Cholesterol Meter and is reported only when Triglycerides are <400 mg/dL.

The Mission® Cholesterol Pro Monitoring System is intended for the quantitative determination of Total Cholesterol, High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol, and Triglycerides in human capillary whole blood from the fingertip and lithium heparin venous whole blood. The Mission Cholesterol Pro Monitoring System is a portable system consisting of the Mission Cholesterol Pro Meter, Mission Cholesterol Pro Test Cartridges, Mission Cholesterol Optical Verifier, and Mission Cholesterol Control Solution, and is intended for multiple patient use in professional healthcare settings. This system should only be used with single-use, auto-disabling lancing devices. This system is for in vitro diagnostic use only.

Cholesterol measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders involving excess cholesterol in the blood and lipid and lipoprotein metabolism disorders.

HDL (High Density Lipoprotein) measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of lipid disorders (such as diabetes mellitus), atherosclerosis, and various liver and renal diseases.

Triglycerides measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with diabetes mellitus, nephrosis, liver obstruction, and other diseases involving lipid metabolism or various endocrine disorders.

An estimated value for Low Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol is calculated by the Mission Cholesterol Meter and is reported only when Triglycerides are <400 mg/dL.
