i-STAT TEST CARTRIDGES
Available for a broad range of diagnostic and treatment indicators
related to disease state management and clinical practice guidelines
FAST. EASY. ACCURATE.
The i-STAT System offers the most comprehensive range of clinical tests in a single point-of-care platform, allowing clinicians to access the time-sensitive diagnostic information they need, when and where they need it.
REDUCES BLOOD REQUIREMENTS
To perform a test, 2 to 3 drops of blood are applied to a cartridge, which is then inserted into the i-STAT handheld. The i-STAT System can significantly reduce blood requirements by:
- Eliminating re-sticks due to delays with multi-use analyzers
- Minimising the risk of sample clotting before or during testing
- Consolidating analytes on one cartridge
i-STAT PUTS QUALITY WITHIN RANGE
i-STAT System single-use test cartridges are designed to help reduce the problems multi-use systems face with poor quality and/or clotted samples.
i-STAT test cartridges deliver lab-quality results without having to leave the patient’s side
- Each unique i-STAT System cartridge contains chemically sensitive biosensors on a silicon chip that are configured for specific analytes
- Quality checks of sample integrity, sensors, and fluidics are automatic with each i-STAT cartridge run, providing confidence and advanced performance
- Compliance with liquid quality control requirements can be ensured through a customisable user lockout feature
A COMPREHENSIVE MENU OF TESTS ON A SINGLE PLATFORM
Single-use i-STAT cartridges are available for a range of clinical tests, including cardiac markers, lactate, coagulation, blood gases, chemistries and electrolytes, and hematology.
AN EASY CARTRIDGE-FILLING SOLUTION
The i-STAT Dispensing Tip streamlines the blood-transfer process to the i-STAT test cartridge. The end of the Dispensing Tip aligns with the cartridge port to allow the end-user to more-easily and accurately dispense the desired amount of blood. The tip is available for order in 100-count package.
