Early diagnosis and treatment can significantly improve both the quality of life and the lifespan of children born with cystic fibrosis. The proven diagnostic effectiveness of analyzing electrolyte concentration in sweat makes it vital to perform this test as soon as possible after birth. ELITech-Wescor has long been the leading innovator in the laboratory diagnosis of cystic fibrosis® with the Macroduct Sweat Collector and its companion, the Sweat-Chek™ Sweat Conductivity Analyzer.

The Nanoduct Neonatal Sweat Analysis System combines and miniaturizes the proven collection and analysis technologies of Macroduct and Sweat-Chek to accommodate the tiny limbs of newborn infants, and provides reliable laboratory diagnosis of CF as soon as a newborn’s sweat glands are capable of producing sweat. Innovative features of the Nanoduct System include the special electrode/sensor holders that are positioned on the patient’s limb before iontophoresis. The holders make electrode placement simple and secure. They also guarantee that the sensor collecting surface is perfectly registered with the stimulated skin area and attachment pressure is optimal when the sensor is attached.
