Healthcare facilities are being challenged with increased patient volume and the need for continued monitoring of blood gases in respiratory patients.
While the i-STAT System does not have a test to diagnose coronavirus, the i-STAT System offers test cartridges that provide fast results which can assist in the early identification of deteriorating health in patients and can help to identify patients that are critically ill. Hospitalised patients are often nursed in isolation units in the ICU. The handheld nature of the i‑STAT 1 and i-STAT Alinity analysers means blood testing can be performed at the patient’s bedside potentially reducing the risk of contamination and cross-infection. .
