Blood gas analyser
Stat Profile Prime is a new blood gas analyser that combines the microelectronics of the consumer world with Nova’s innovative ZERØ maintenance cartridge technology for a smaller, faster, and less expensive critical care analyser. Stat Profile Prime’s ZERØ maintenance cartridge technology consists of individual cartridges for biosensors, calibrators, and liquid quality control. Each cartridge is maintenance- free, ready to use, and easily replaced in seconds. This design optimizes the life of each cartridge; improves analyser uptime; and eliminates the waste, downtime, and higher costs of older combined calibrator/sensor cartridge systems. Nova’s new technology MicroSensor Card contains biosensors for pH, PCO2, PO2, Na, K, iCa, Cl, Glu, and Lac. Credit card-sized, the MicroSensor Card is automatically calibrated and always ready to deliver a full 10-test profile in just 60 seconds. MicroSensor cards can be replaced in less than half the time of older cartridge systems, which can take more than one hour to calibrate and can remain unstable with drift , frequent re-calibrations, and reduced throughput for even longer periods of time. Stat Profile Prime’s Clot Block sample flow path protects the Micro- Sensor Card from blockages and prolonged downtime caused by blood clots. Compact, lightweight, and simple to operate with a colour touchscreen, Stat Profile Prime may be used in a fixed location virtually anywhere in the hospital or operated on a mobile cart with a battery back-up. The analyser ensures the highest quality and lab accuracy with automated, true liquid quality control and continuous electronic self-monitoring, saving time and labour. Tests include: partial pressure of carbon dioxide and oxygen, acidity, sodium, potassium, chloride, ionized calcium, glucose, lactate, and hematocrit.
