Blood Gas Analyzer

Nova Biomedical

Nova Biomedical introduces its Stat Profile Prime, a new blood gas analyzer that combines microelectronics with Nova's ZERØ maintenance cartridge technology for a smaller, faster, and less expensive critical care analyzer with a color touchscreen. 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 to improve analyzer uptime, and eliminate the waste, downtime, and higher costs of older combined calibrator/sensor cartridge systems. The analyzer may be used in a fixed location virtually anywhere in the hospital, or operated on a mobile cart with a battery back up. Stat Profile Prime ensures lab quality and accuracy with automated, true liquid quality control and continuous electronic self-monitoring to help save time and labor resources. Tests include: partial pressure of carbon dioxide and oxygen, acidity, sodium, potassium, chloride, ionized calcium, glucose, lactate, and hematocrit.
