For performance-diagnostic and training-control
For recreational or performance sports as well as rehabilitation in cardiac and pulmonary diseases. Lactate, the salt of lactic acid, occurs during physical stress. There’s a relationship between the lactate-concentration in the blood and the intensity. As a rule: the more intense the muscular demands, the higher the lactate-value. The instant measuring of the blood’s lactate-level with Accutrend Lactate therefore affords the choice of the individually correct training-intensity, sensible balance between stressing muscles and relaxation, reduction of over-stressing and danger of injury.
In the clinic and emergency medicine
The lactate-value reflects the extend of a hypoxia in the tissue. Its value can therefore be used for the prognosis of morbidity and mortality. There is a connection between level of injury and level of lactate-concentration. The repeated control of lactate after 12 hours, additionally enables the prognosis for patient survival. Lactate-determination is therefore indispensable in many emergency situations: i.e. with shock, cardio-vascular diseases, heart-failure, and cardiac arrest.
