RAPIDQC® Plus Level 3
Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics Inc. · Model 10325104
For in vitro diagnostic use for quality control of pH/Blood Gas analyzers and ISE analyzers.
Intended use: A material which is used to verify the performance of an assay intended to be used for the quantitative measurement of multiple blood gas, haemoximetry and/or electrolyte analytes in a clinical sample. Analytes detected may include partial pressure of oxygen (pO2), partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2), pH, sodium, potassium, ionized calcium, chloride, glucose, lactate, total haemoglobin (totHb), haematocrit, and haemoglobin derivatives such as reduced haemoglobin (RHb), methaemoglobin (MetHb), sulfhaemoglobin (SHb).
Key tips
- ·Run QC controls before trusting any repair - an analyzer that passes self-test can still report clinically wrong results.
- ·Rule out a reagent lot change before opening the instrument - it can look exactly like a hardware fault.
- ·Centrifuge rotors have a hard retirement age/cycle limit regardless of visible condition - don't eyeball it.
