- Monitoring
|
- The HemoCue® Glucose 201 System is intended for the the quantitative determination of the instant blood glucose concentration in circulation supplements the clinical evidence in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with diabetes
- Hemocue glucose testing systems are based on a glucose dehydrogenase method and consist of a small dedicated analyzer and a unique disposable microcuvette
- No calibration or microcuvette batch-to-batch variations
- Glucose 201 analyzer: 0-444 mg/dl (0-24.6 mmol/l)
- Only 5 µL of capillary, venous, or arterial blood is needed
- Following the three simple steps, the hemocue glucose systems will produce lab-accurate results for diagnosing or monitoring diabetes, as well as monitoring neonatal blood glucose levels
- Contains an exact quantity of dry reagent that automatically yields a chemical reaction when in contact with blood
|
- The Afinion™ 2 Analyzer is a compact, rapid, multi-assay analyzer that provides valuable near patient testing at the point-of-care
- The analyzer is designed to enable simple and fast on-the-spot testing, regardless of the sample type, which may be whole blood, plasma or urine, and to deliver accurate results during patient consultation for improved patient management
- The Afinion™ 2 Analyzer automatically transfers patient and control results via TCP/IP networking using the protocols POCT1-A, HL7, ASTM 1381-85 (low level) or ASTM 1394-97 (high level), selectable by configuration
- The analyzer and test cartridges have been precision engineered with each test cartridge containing an integrated sample collection device and all necessary reagents for a single test
- The Afinion™ 2 Analyzer eliminates erroneous results with integrated error detection and self-check systems
- Three tests on one platform; HbA1c, ACR, CRP
- Connectivity solutions that support POCT1-A
- Extensive and comprehensive failsafe systems prevent the possibility of erroneous results
- QC and operator lockout
