MAUDE data represents reports of adverse events involving medical devices. This maude entry was filed with the FDA on 2006-03-17 for CHOLESTRAK * 80202 manufactured by Accutech Llc.
[476444]
The test kit repackaged by accutech llc as cholestrak -and other repackagers- has been giving errorneous results for the past 2 years. Since heart disease is the number one killer of americans and since the results are always at least 40 points too low, i am reporting this as a life-threatening situation for all those who use this product and believe the results based on the fda approval of this product.
