A new blood gas analyzer is designed to increase simplicity and test reliability at the point of care (POC).

Automated procedures help to ensure data accuracy and regulatory compliance, while two new supplementary services, Flexcare and Flexpac, maximize analyzer uptime and simplify inventory management.

The ABL800 Flex can be configured to measure any combination of pH, blood gas, electrolyte, oximetry, and metabolite parameters on only 95 ìl of blood. Windows XP software, a user interface, and few manual steps make operation of the analyzer simple and intuitive. Since small capillary samples are often difficult specimens to handle, Flexmode offers the user the highest number of parameters reliably possible, minimizing the risk of losing a precious sample.

Automated procedures on the ABL800 Flex make it easier to ensure regulatory compliance and data accuracy. Users can get access to patient test results from any Radiance-connected analyzer in the hospital directly on the ABL800 Flex screen. This saves valuable time and space because the user does not have to go to separate PC workstations. The analyzer is the product of Radiometer (Broenshoej, Denmark).
