ABL800 FLEX

Automatically identify, mix and measure samples

• FLEXQ module automatically identifies, mixes and measures up to three samples in succession

• Automated identification and mixing reduce risk of operator errors

• Samples are automatically conveyed to the inlet and aspirated into the analyzer, so operators are free to return to their patients

Get lab-quality results at the point of care

• 128 wavelengths for full CO-oximetry

• Automatic measurement and suppression of interferences from fetal hemoglobin, bilirubin, intralipids and sulfhemoglobin

• No interference from Evans Blue and Cardio Green on oximetry results

• Accurate glucose and lactate measurements

• Fully automated micromodes ensure accuracy of very small samples

• FLEXMODE ensures high sample success rate of precious capillary samples by providing the highest number of parameters as reliably possible

Achieve maximum control and efficiency

• Windows® XP operating system

• Automatic result processing, test ordering and transmission to the LIS system

• Automatic data archiving and customizable layout

• Data backup with read/write CD-ROM drive

• USB ports for easy connection of e.g. flash drives, keyboards, etc.

• Hospital network integration through ASTM and HL7 standard communication protocols or via RADIANCE

safePICO sampler

Reduce the risk of needle-stick injuries

• Onboard, one-hand-operation device allows safe removal of needles

Quickly remove air bubbles and avoid contact with patient blood

• The safeTIPCAP simplifies the removal of air bubbles

• Once air bubbles have been expelled, the sample is sealed for anaerobic transport

• The risk of contact with patient blood is limited 

Ensure fast and proper mixing with integrated mixing device

• The integrated metal ball works as a mixing device, ensuring correct and fast mixing of the sample prior to analysis

Correctly identify samples with safePICO’s unique barcode ID

• safePICO is prebarcoded, making it easy to identify samples correctly

safePICO Mixer

• Ensure a thorough and uniform mixing from sample to sample by using the safePICO Mixer.

CLINITUBES
Capillaries available in glass and "non-PVC" plastic

Match different analyzer requirements

• Variety of sizes match sample-volume requirements of individual analyzers

Draw blood samples quickly, easily and safely

• Unique surface treatment ensures fast filling of plastic capillary tubes

• Mixing wires provide optimal mixing of the sample, minimizing risk of clotting 

• Plastic capillary samplers eliminate risk of breakage, staff injury and contamination

Secure sample quality

• Uniform heparin coating ensures homogeneous sample quality

• Glass capillary samplers secures airtight storage and reliable pO₂ results

• High concentration of Radiometer's patented electrolyte-balanced heparin ensures reliable results

• Clot catchers can be used as an extra precaution to avoid clotting 

Avoid preanalytical errors

• Radiometer’s pocketsize "The whole-blood sampling handbook" gives you information on sampling techniques to help avoid preanalytical errors.
