Compact glucose analyser
HemoCue has launched a hand held glucose analyser which it says offers the accuracy and precision of a laboratory instrument
The small hand-held systems provide precise, accurate results in just 60 seconds allowing clinicians to confidently and quickly make the correct diagnosis and initiate or modify treatment.
In keeping with other HemoCue devices, this new Glucose 201 RT consists of a portable analyser together with disposable microcuvettes.
However, it is the first glucose system to utilise cuvettes that are stable at room temperature.
With no need for refrigeration and a shelf life of 12 months, the Glucose 201 RT offers increased flexibility and can be used in all OEout of laboratory' situations where immediate results are required.
Only 4ul of blood is used and an extended measuring range of 0-27.8mmol/L ensures the RT's suitability for any clinical application, from routine screening to the ITU/SCBU where potentially life-critical glycaemic events can be closely monitored in real time.
Factory calibrated and with sophisticated QC, data management and communication options, results can be immediately relayed to information management systems.
