Afinion HbA1c test box of 15

The World’s #1 HbA1c POC Test 

The Afinion HbA1c assay is the result of years of commitment to continuous product innovation and refinement offering rapid results in minutes. We take all of the complexity out of the hands of the user and design our tests to be simple and intuitive. 

Confidence in Testing 

The test has been IFCC and NGSP-certified for more than 14 years. Continuous improvements through the years have led the Afinion HbA1c test to be recognized as having an excellent analytical performance^4,5 often outperforming other HbA1c point-of-care instruments.^4,6,7

Highly accurate and lab precise results

Afinion delivers highly accurate results. External quality assurance (EQA) data shows that the analytical performance of Afinion 2 Analyzer is as good as most of the laboratory-based methods or even better.^8,9

Reliable Diagnostics 

It is the first point-of-care HbA1c assay that has been cleared by the US FDA not only for monitoring but also as an aid in the diagnosis of diabetes and prediabetes.¹⁰

Saves Time and Increases Productivity

Studies show that testing in the physician office can increase efficiency by reducing the number of patient follow-up visits, limiting the number of venous draws required, saving time on administrative tasks for laboratory orders, and sending letters freeing up time for other duties.^11,12

Immediate Coachable Moments

With point-of-care test results in hand, you can have immediate coachable moments with your patients and empower them to be engaged as an active partner in their care. Studies show that having test results during the consultation increases both the patient's motivation and understanding.^12,13,14
